When building a wardrobe you want a basic foundation. Once you have good basics, you can layer, you can mix and match, hence multiplying your wardrobe.
As you know, I love a good basic white tee, whether that is short sleeve or long sleeve, it is a must have for your wardrobe.
When wearing a white tee, make sure that you have a ivory or taupe color cami like this one or this one. Never a lace cami because it’s just not cute and it looks like you are wearing lingerie. No one wants to see that. When you have found the right cami you will see that your tee fits better and lays better, giving you a nice clean look.
Another great every day basic is a simple black dress like this one or this one.
You can do so much with a black dress. You can layer it with a jacket, a cardigan or wear it by itself with some fun jewelry or even belt it. As you see, the style options are endless.
Other “basic” wardrobe multipliers are the denim and olive green utility jacket. I also love a leather jacket but let’s be real people, we will not be getting that at Target. No offense! We can only go so far on cutting costs.
So right now, we have the v neck white tee (long and short) that we can wear with jeans, chinos, a pencil skirt or maxi. We can wear it by itself, with jewelry, a cardigan or jacket of your choice. See just that “basic” item gave you so many looks and it’s under $20!!
We also have the simple black dress that you can belt, put a sweater over it, a leather jacket, or style with your favorite statement accessories like a leopard print pump or clutch. If you don’t want to go dressy, style it with your favorite sneakers and/or denim jacket.
See how you can have the best time styling and making the most of your wardrobe by building upon the basics. So what are you waiting for! Go to Target and grab you simple every day looks and you will be rocking out to the beat of your own style drum before you know it.
