If I were to write a memoir today looking back at my 27 years of life, it would be called, I’m Getting Too Old for This, with each phase of my life split into sections by the fashion trends that I deemed to be “wardrobe essentials” at the time. Part one would be titled “A Showstopping Limited Too Popcorn Shirt.” Part two would be “A Sleeve of 19 Multicolored Livestrong Bracelets.” Part three would be “Cold-Shoulder Tops and Unapologetic Skinny Jeans.” And part four (present-day) would be “A Trusty Black Blazer.”
At the ripe age of 27, let me tell you: I’m freakin’ tired. There’s a time and a place for chasing trends, but when you build a wardrobe around them, it can make things crowded and unnecessarily expensive. This year, I’m revamping and minimizing my closet to highlight all of my classic wardrobe essentials that’ll never go out of style. The end goal? Creating a capsule wardrobe that’ll make mixing and matching pieces an effortlessly chic breeze. If you’re looking to streamline your closet, look no further—these 10 pieces will always be in style.
