How To Get More Outfits with Fewer Clothes
If you are like many women, you have a closet overflowing with clothes, but you never have something to wear that looks right. The trick to always having a stylish mom outfit ready to go is to shop smarter rather than buying large quantities of apparel. Use the following suggestions to create a wardrobe filled with a few versatile pieces that will allow you to dress stylishly for any occasion.
Work Clothes
If you are lucky enough to have a job that requires a uniform, you don’t have to worry about what to wear. Simply make sure you have at least two sets so that there is always one available, even when one is in the laundry. Those that work in a laid back setting can refer to the suggestions for casual wear while office workers can take advantage of the dress outfit section. Otherwise, consider your type of work when shopping for clothes. Buy clothing that provides safety and holds up to the abuse it will receive. For example, if you find yourself working around flames, you can find flame resistant clothing that still looks stylish from sites such as FR Outlet.
Casual Wear
Casual wear will be the clothes you wear around the house, running errands, or at a casual work setting. Buying layers will allow you to create many outfits from just a few pieces. Choose one good pair of jeans and a pair of cotton pants. Buy choosing a tank top, a tee shirt, and a button front shirt in coordinating colors, you can mix and match them for several different looks. Layer the button Front shirt over the tee for one look and over the tank for something different. Each shirt can be worn alone as well. Purchase a few quality accessory pieces that will switch things up even more. Earrings matching the underlayer one day will make the same clothes feel brand new the next day when you wear earrings to match the top layer.
Exercise Pieces
When it comes to heading off to your yoga class, you will want to look stylish while staying comfortable. Buy your basic core pieces in solid colors. For example, find a high-quality pair of yoga leggings in a navy blue or black. Match it with a tank in a brighter color or a neutral like white or gray. In order to spice things up a bit, look for hoodies and tees from places like Zen Vibes. Trendy pieces with bright colors and bold patterns will give the basic core pieces the punch of color and style that they need. Accessories would be limited to a pair of cute, brightly colored shoes.
Dress Clothes
If you work in an office, you will have plenty of work fashion and dress clothes on hand, but otherwise, an invitation to a special occasion can send you into a tailspin. Office workers can use the same layering trick used for casual wear by starting with a basic skirt and neutral tops. Layer them with sweaters or tanks for several different options. Formal wear, or the occasional dress-up situation, is harder. First of all, you don’t want to spend a fortune on a dress you will only wear once. Look through online sites and local thrift stores for bargains. Many girls were these outfits once and then sell them on consignment or donate them. This helps everyone out.
By shopping smarter and buying a few high-quality pieces that can be layered, you will be able to create several different looks without having a closet overflowing with stuff. A good selection of accessories will complete any of those outfits, and you will never again be standing in front of a mirror frustrated when you should be out having fun.
