How do I build a wardrobe?

Building a wardrobe - Where to begin and where to invest??

Building a wardrobe can be an overwhelming experience. Where do you need to invest your dollars and where can you “skimp?”

Every woman needs to have a good quality suit. This will be the “core” of her collection. Plan to spend in the realm of $300-500, depending on the designer chosen and fabric of suit.

We will then “build” onto this “core piece.” A simple pant in a neutral color will add versatility to the suit jacket, along with adding several button-down shirts, “separate’s”, simple sweaters and sweater sets, will make your wardrobe go a long way! Think neutral which never goes out of season and white is a must have!

Finally, investing in a quality black leather purse and shoes, can last a lifetime, with proper leather care. Studies show that people notice your shoes and purse, after your smile! 

Trendy season pieces can be purchased at an inexpensive price, for these items are not warranted for long term wearing.

Always ask your self “How many times will I wear the item I am about to purchase and what do I have in my closet which will compliment this piece?” If the answer is “I will wear it very little and have nothing to wear with it” – pass it up!

Remember, classics never go out of style! Happy Shopping!
