With all the sales going on lately, it is easy to get sucked in and buy something you don’t need. You might even get something you’ll never wear. Before you splurge on unnecessary clothes, check if you have the basics. There are some pieces that you should have in your wardrobe like white T-shirts and blue jeans. Yes, they are simple clothes but they will match what you already have and you can build an outfit from them. So, see if you have the clothes listed below before you spend on a pair of shiny pants that you don’t really need.
Zara The Vintage High Waist Jeans in Rose Blue
When it comes to bottoms, you should have at least one pair of blue jeans. You can throw this on for any casual outfit or dress it up with heels for a semi-formal occasion. Blue jeans also match everything so you don’t have to stress about putting an outfit together. Available at Power Plant Mall.
Gucci Jordan Leather Loafers
A pair of black shoes is also essential as it can be worn with everything. Loafers in particular will look good with a dress, trousers, and shorts. This is also a piece you might want to spend a little more on like this pair from Gucci. Available at Shangri-La Mall.
Miss Selfridge Cut-Out Asymmetric Bodycon Dress
A little black dress can be your go-to item for last-minute events. It will go with anything and you’ll look good in it too. There are many styles you can choose from but this one has an asymmetric cutout, which keeps it interesting. Available at Greenbelt 5.
H&M Cotton-Blend T-Shirt
You can also never have too many white T-shirts. Like blue jeans, you can throw this on when you have to go to the grocery or running late for work. It’s as simple piece but it works. Available at SM Makati.
Uniqlo Women Suede Riders Jacket
It is also good to have a jacket that you wear with majority of the clothes you have in your closet. Whether you’re wearing a dress or slacks, the jacket should complete the outfit. Go for one that’s either black or brown to keep it neutral. Available at SM Megamall.
