How To Build Your Wardrobe - Part 1

Ladies, this one is for you! Deep Dive into the must haves of every Women's Wardrobe and build a perfect one from Scratch! 

 

Before we begin, I'm sure you will relate to this question - Is your wardrobe overflowing, but you still don’t have clothes to wear for any occasion?

 

Trust us, we can relate. However, it is important for both men and women to have clothes in their wardrobe that make them feel confident and comfortable. 

 

Women have a lot more options of clothing to choose from. This makes it even more difficult for us to make the right choice. But when you have us as your guide, you have nothing else to worry about!

 

 

We have broken down your wardrobe needs into four parts - topwear, bottomwear, accessories and dresses and lastly traditional outfits. A detailed in-depth guide that will have you covered for all your occasions!

 

The first thing to do while building your wardrobe is to assess your style. You don’t need to hop on every Insta famous clothing trend if it makes you uncomfortable. We all know that the uncomfy corsets and leather pants are not going to be everyone's cup of tea and probably not possible for you to wear daily. 

 

It is perfectly okay to not wear crop tops and bralettes and opt for a modest t-shirt or kurta. Similarly, some people feel empowered when they flaunt their skin and that is completely alright too. Your confidence is your biggest weapon, if you are comfortable and confident with what you wear, you will rock your outfit!

 

You also do not need a huge wardrobe to be stylish and look good! Building your wardrobe with basic pieces along with a few eye-catching items will elevate your fashion game.

 

So get into the car girl, we’re going shopping!

 

#1 Topwear : Daily

 

Daily Wear - Top

 

Your topwear should be versatile and elevate your outfit! There are a lot of styles, patterns and designs in the market. But picking what you like is key. You can start by picking five basic t-shirts - white, black and a few t shirts that add a pop of colour. You can pick from a wide array of colours like mustard, blue, red, pink, green, and so on.

 

The style of your t-shirt can be as per your liking, It can either be short-sleeved or long-sleeved, it can be a loose or well-fitted t-shirt, cropped or long - the options are endless. You can also mix and match and have a couple from each style of your choice. If you prefer wearing sleeveless clothes, you can choose singlets and muscle tees too. Cotton Chikankari Kurtis with a denim blue pair of jeans is your perfect super chic look. 

 

#2 Topwear : Formal

 

Formal Topwear - Shirt

 

Your formal wardrobe doesn’t need several shirts that you will rarely reach out for. If you are in college, all you need are two shirts - one solid coloured t shirt and one printed t shirt, and you are good to go. If you work in an office with a formal dress code, you can have lesser t-shirts and more shirts. For girls, they can even go for a nice kurti and even a saree for some formal event. 

 

Pick and choose as per your need!

 

#3 Topwear : Party

 

Party Wear - Top

 

Adding a few slightly fancy pieces can be a great addition to your wardrobe. You can choose more well-fitted tops for when you are planning to go out. You can opt for tops with lace, frills or puffy sleeves depending on what you like. Also, you can opt for bodysuits and wrap tops.

 

Your party tops need to necessarily have plunging necklines, they can be modest and yet elevate your fashion game! You don’t need a wardrobe full of party tops, three to five tops should do the trick. You can have a couple in a darker colour like a plum, maroon, black, navy blue or olive green and the rest in lighter or pastel tones.

 

For your Indian weddings and parties have a nice lehenga and blouse set or trendy sharara. For saree lovers, you can always drape a saree with minimalistic work and a princess cut blouse. 

 

#4 Topwear : Layering

 

Layering Outfits for Women

 

If you like the look of layering, we already can see the fashionista spark within you! You can ace your layering game with just a few pieces of jackets and blazers, three to be precise. All you need is a light bomber or cardigan, a denim jacket and a smart blazer!

 

You can use your basic top or singlet to layer under your jackets. If you choose to opt for a cardigan, you can buy it in a light and warm colour. If you want to add an element of funk to your wardrobe, bomber jackets are the best piece of clothing to experiment with!

 

You can choose bomber jackets in a bright colour or print. For your denim jacket, you can opt for the classic dark blue denim or black denim jacket. Your blazers can be a transitional piece in your wardrobe. You can use the blazer to layer while dressing up for an outing or even for a formal meeting or event. The blazer can be printed or solid, choose as you like!

 

If you live in a region with a colder climate, you will need a thick overcoat to wear during the winters. You can choose a neutral coloured jacket that can be paired with almost every outfit. 

 

 

Save this Infographic and fret not, it will remind you of the essentials of the Top-wear in your wardrobe at one single glance! 

 

Now that your topwear is sorted, head over to the next article where we decode bottom wear, shoes and accessories for you!
