So here it is, my list of wardrobe must haves, essentials, everything you’ll need to look stylish all year round! It’s been a long time coming this post, mostly because I was a little undecided about how much or little to include. I guess in the end I decided that I would include the basics to a classic style wardrobe. It helped me clarify my thoughts writing my last post for Smarter Admin about building a work wardrobe. So sure, there is more you could add {isn’t there always!?} but these basics will keep you out of trouble if you’re just starting out your my style adventure.
Are you ready? Giant image coming right up. List below. Links available in my Pinterest album ‘Closet & Outfit Dreaming’.

Hi! I’m Suger and I’m the Chief Blogger here. I make stuff for the internet. Which means I take photos, build websites, write copy and create social media plans for people. This is my blog where I share my life and the things that interest me. It’s been living its best life on the interwebs since 2009.
A black cardigan. I just hate how everything seems to be sleeveless these days. It’s cold!!!
I was just looking at this late last night and I was like darn, I forgot the knits! Great addition Faith. Thanks.
Damn it, I have all these things, does that mean I have to stop shopping now lol
Haha. Now to personalise it to a style you love. There’s always more to add never fear! 😉
I’m with Faith – I have a few black cardis of different thickness and lengths. Not in my wardrobe as yet but I’m thinking of buying a few wrap or other work-style dresses for those mornings when I just can’t be bothered thinking about what to wear.
I LOVE wrap and shirt dresses. I’m having a bit of a facepalm moment here because I didn’t include them. Great addition!
My personal list would be minus a few of these… but then my style is pretty casual most of the time. I really must get a good blazer, however. Oh to be wealthy!
Oh yes indeed! i would have so much fun buying up a storm if money wasn’t an issue.
And it would be no surprise to you that I pretty much have this list covered – many times over.
I am not surprised at all my dear. Not one bit. Haha.
I also love a good scarf! Either in a plain colour like black or white or a pop of colour like pink or green 🙂
Oh yes! Absolutely. Great addition.
