New phases in life call for a new wardrobe! In the midst of transitioning your digs, it is important to hold on to the basics. There are staples that you should be sure to have in your wardrobe, no matter what stage of life you’re in. So whether you have a new job or are switching up your style, include these looks:
Theory modernized the basic white button down shirt. This shirt goes for $220 but you can find a basic white shirt that does the trick for as low as $22.
A great cardigan is also a must. The plus is that it could go from casual to professional. If you’re looking for a nice cardigan, try J.Crew or LOFT.
A pullover sweater is a great addition to any young woman’s closet. This black and white sweater from Michael Kors is a great basic. You can also find nice sweaters at H&M, New York & Company, and JCP.
A little black dress is a must. Specifically a little black sheath dress. Black sheath dresses become a true go-to in the moments you can’t figure out what you want to wear.
Alexander Wang created these tailored black plants. A nice pair of black pants can be worn at church, an interview, and even a date. Express has nice pants and they often have sales.
You have to have a blazer. We suggest investing in a nice one. You can find an affordable blazer at Banana Republic that would last you for years.
Trench coats are a solid staple. We found this beautiful Burberry trench for $2,140. You can find one for a lot less at Macy’s. Trench coats have a classic casual appeal.
And last but not least are flats. Flats are a great addition to any young woman’s wardrobe, and your feet would agree! These flats are $50 from Zara. We recommend Zara as an inexpensive option and Tory Burch for a splurge.
