The Standard… Style - The Standard Wardrobe Items!

This is not basic wardrobe staples, this is a standard wardrobe.
A selection of items, that I think every women need in some form, as a foundation for their wardrobe.

This is no matter your style, shape or age - because the idea is, that you pick the items in a form, that suits you and your preferences.
Oh, and it is more than okay, if you have more than one of each item.


1. Black Trousers
A black pair of trouser it probably the number one thing, you need, no matter you age or shape.
They can be dressed up or down, and go at work and for play.
You can go with a tailored pair like these H&M Suit Trousers, but a more loose relaxed pair is also great to invest in.

2. Jeans
No matter if you go skinny, flared, boyfriend or mom, you need a pair of jeans in your wardrobe.
My favourite kind of jeans are skinny, and I love the Topshop Jamie Jeans, or Boyfriend jeans.

3. Pencil Skirt
No matter your style or if you are style-confused, you need a pencil skirt (preferable in black).
If you have a more relaxed style like me, you will love this soft and very flattering H&M Jersey Pencil Skirt.
But you can also go bold and do leather, shine or texture.

4. Shirt Dress
A shirt dress is always in style, but also very classic.
And I assure you, that you will find one for your style as well.
I love the more edgy ones, like this & Other Stories Cotton Shirt Dress.
Cos also do great, more classic silhouettes of shirt dresses.

5. Black Blazer
This item can make an outfit, and where it was reserved for the "power ladies" back in the 80's and 90's, it is now a must for every women.
I use it, when I want to look more professional, but also to dress up joggers and a tee.
Again, I like one with a bit of edge and zips always add edge, as with this Topshop Zip Off Blazer.

6. Black Dress
The LBD is still an absolute must!
Make sure to be true to yourself when picking one, and go for one, that you feel comfortable in.
I think, that this is really an item, where you could invest a bit more, and Cos do great quality dresses and this Black dress with draped pockets is just amazing.

7. White Shirt
You can get this in pretty much every shape and form, you could imagine - so there is something for everyone.
I like to have one fitted and one oversized.
This ASOS Double Layer Shirt is a great and a bit different option.

8. Grey Sweater 
This is the perfect casual and classic item.
I've a sligt obsession with grey sweaters, but do think, that this is absolutely an item, that you can never get to many of.
Start of with a classic shape and shade, like this Weekday Manama Sweater.

9. Striped Top
You need a striped top or actually I think, you need several striped tops.
This is the perfect go-to item, whenever you have outfit doubts.
The Monki Polly Top is a great option.

Spring is the perfect time to do a bit of wardrobe clear out and clean up, and I hope this gave you some inspirations to get started.
This is the standard wardrobe that you should spruce up with items, that reflects your style and seasonal/trendy items.
