Are there certain items of clothing that are never actually in your wardrobe because either you're wearing them or they're in the wash? I know that I have a few favourites that I could honestly not live without! So here are the main items of casual clothing I use:
- Cardigans:
While I think cardigans are essential in every girl's wardrobe, they are necessary in a Mormon girl's wardrobe. White and black are a must as they will go with most outfits, making anything modest and adorable! It is also good to have at least one colourful cardigan to add some colour to your attire, or at least my yellow cardigan always comes in handy to me when I go for the 'all black' outfits!
- Jackets:
Okay, so I don't actually own these but they are at the top of my list of clothes I need to buy! I had a black leather jacket very similar to the one in the picture which I wore nearly everywhere; which is actually why it ripped and I had to throw it out... It looks good with anything and gives you an edgy look. I did not know I needed a fluffy white cardigan until I spent a week at my friend's house, and used her fluffly white cardigan every day. It's warm, comfy and it goes with pretty much everything as well!
- The T-shirt:
Maybe this is another Mormon girl thing, but I honestly think a fitted plain white t-shirt is the best item of clothing anyone can own. Not only does it match any colour jeans/trousers/short/chinos/etc, it can be super casual worn on it's own, or it can look a bit more dressy with a long necklace! It is also the best 'modestifyer' as it can be worn underneath strappy tops and dresses!
- Jeans:
I may be biased towards skinny jeans, but I honestly believe that they are the best style of jeans. When worn with an oversized top, they will look super casual but cute, and if worn with a pretty top they will flatter your figure and give you an instant 'I made some effort' look! It is always good to have 3 pair of skinny jeans: a black pair for the party look; a dark blue pair for Winter; a light blue pair for Summer. If you're not feeling the whole leg-hugging-fabric thing, then I suggest a pair of boyfriend fit jeans; not only are they comfortable as they are baggy, but the ones with rips give an edge to your style!
- The Belt:
I honestly don't know how I used to live without a thin brown belt. I wear mine pretty much every day as it makes my outfit look nicer without having to wear any other accessories. When going for the 'all black' look, which I honestly over-use, the brown belt helps to define my waist and hips.
- Shoes:
Biased again because I am in love with my white Converse, but they are honestly my favourite shoes! White Converse go with every outfit, they are comfy and they last for years because you can still pull them off when they are old. It is also good to have a pair of flats that are comfy and nice; I chose brown ones as shoes should always match the belt, and since when I want to wear flats I am more often than not, wearing my brown belt... well, the colour scheme works!
What are your favourite articles of clothing? Do you have any of the ones mentioned in your wardrobe?
