[20] Closet Basics






So, this Friday I had plans to go hang out with one of my close friends. It’s been a while, and we are all doing our adult thing so we really needed some down time. As I was getting ready I get a text, “I have nothing to wear”. Ok, I needed to keep this simple because we are supposed to meet up in about 7 minutes. I texted back… “ok girl grab a white tank, skinny jeans, a black blazer and a hot peer of pumps”. The next text I get back, and I’m quoting here, “You are asking for too much”. Lol,  smh.. what I’m going to do with my friend. 

After that conversation, I thought how many of us are having the same problem. How many times have we run to the mall to buy an outfit for a girl’s night out because we don’t have the essentials in our closet? So, I’ve put together 20 closet basics that every woman should have.


Staples women should have in their closet:

  • Nice tees and tanks … not only black and white, add in some colorful ones.
  • Tailored blazer… its versatile, perfect for work or play.

  9. Classic men's button downs are my staples. I find something so simple and sexy about an over-sized oxford with rolled up sleeves. Easy, and looks great every time. Great post, made me want to go home and take a look into my closet!
