[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:
