Build the Perfect Wardrobe with Basics in Beige

Building the perfect closet consists of owning classic pieces that can be seamlessly paired with on-trend items year in and year out. Invest in the tried-and-true styles in down to earth hues for a good foundation toward a fashionable wardrobe. Start with basics in beige for pieces that are timeless, chic and unexpectedly wild.

Nude Bra Necessities

Your secret weapon to looking polished, finding the perfect bra is key to pulling together an outfit. Smooth coverage and the right lift will leave whatever you are wearing over it look and fit its best. Buy all your basic bras from strapless to a standard t-shirt bra it in a beige that similar to your skin tone to get the most wear out of each one.

Ordinary (but extraordinary) Oatmeal Sweater

An oatmeal sweater has the power to tame statement pieces, making it a wardrobe staple for every woman. Take a bright pink party dress out for a spin in the daylight when layer it under a no nonsense taupe sweater. Intimidated by a wild leopard print? Let the sophistication of a snugly tailored sweater tone down the feral feel.

Timeless Trench Coat

Is there anything more classic than a trench coat? A chic, simple silhouette in a light khaki color, this jacket is timeless. Invest in one that is elegantly understated and wear it in every season. Pair it over a slinky black dress for sexy summer look on a rainy evening out or layer it over a thick wool sweater and scarf to stay warm in the winter.

Classic Khakis

Dressier than denim but not as formal as black slacks, having a pair of go-to khakis on hand is key for a complete wardrobe. Choose a pair with a tapered leg and take them from weekend brunch with your in-laws to a casual corporate outing. Keep your look light with barely-there high-heel sandals and silky white tee and amp it up with a neon clutch. The same pants will look equally chic with deep wine colored sweater and leather loafer.

Long live the Leopard Print

A statement print is as essential as a skirt itself to a fashion-forward wardrobe. Pair a classic take on leopard print with a simple pencil skirt for a piece that will never go out of style. Because this pattern is made up of neutral hues like tan, black and white you can wear it with anything from plaid to basic black. Try it with a black blouse and pumps for a night out look you can wear year round.

Invest in quality pieces that will last a lifetime like a timeless trench or ever-sexy leopard print pencil skirt. Then piece in trends with cheap items you can wear this season and toss the next — because it doesn’t take a professional trend hunter to tell you those denim culottes won’t last long.
