Fashion brings a whole new world of fun to dressing up. It allows you to experiment with different types of clothes and colors, and lets you express yourself to the world through your own personal style.
However, the ever-changing trends in fashion can make it harder and harder to find clothes and accessories that can outlast a season.
Never fear, though. There are still some items that never go out of style, and are guaranteed to blend in easily with any new fashion trend. Here’s a list of the fundamental fashion must-haves that every queen should have in her closet:
1. Signature jewelry
Jewelry is my favorite accessory, and buying myself a new pair of earrings or a fancy chain every now and then is my guilty pleasure.
Although I can relate to the appeal of having different jewelry for different occasions, I have also learnt to appreciate investing in signature pieces.
Signature pieces are those that you are likely to wear only to big events like weddings or dinners in posh restaurants; however, there are some that you can also wear on a regular basis.
For example, I recently bought myself two simple chains that I wear interchangeably every day, and it has reduced the amount of time I spend looking for the perfect chain to wear in the morning.
Signature pieces are usually more expensive than other pieces of jewelry, and that’s because of their quality. They also last much longer and, although they will cost you a bit more than you usually spend on jewelry, they are worth every extra penny.
2. White and bright
Whether you’re looking for something to wear to a party or a lunch date with friends, white is always a good idea.
White clothes give you a clean, sophisticated look and automatically add a lightness to your outfit; and, seeing as most people tend to shy away from wearing white, it will definitely make you stand out as you’ll probably be the only one in white.
Pair a white vest top with a floral skirt and sandals for a casual summer lunch date with your girlfriends, or go for a white casual top, a pair of dark blue skinny jeans and a pair of heels for some cocktails with your colleagues.
Those who prefer wearing white bottoms instead of tops should try palazzo pants. Not only are they classy, but they are comfortable, too. You’re bound to make good use of them every summer!
3. Black jeans
Black is a bold color that adds balance to any outfit; it also has a slimming effect. i.e. black clothes will make you look smaller in all the right places. Bold colors, like black, are usually reserved for the colder seasons, but black works well for trends in all seasons if worn right.
Black jeans can easily be paired with a warm sweater during the chilly seasons or a light blouse in the warmer seasons. If you’re going for an edgier look, try a pair of black, distressed jeans instead. Finish off your outfit with a pair of flats for a casual look or a pair of low heels for a dressier look.
4. Beige heels
High heels have a way of making you feel powerful. Not only do they add a bit of height to your frame, but they also add a confident strut to your walk—and what says ‘power’ better than a pair of beige heels?
Beige exudes class and is a color that has stood the test of time. Beige heels are a nice way to add a bit of elegance to your outfit. The best thing about them, though, is that they can work for both casual and dressier outfits.
So, whether you’re planning to wear a dress, or pair a top with a skirt or a nice pair of fitting jeans, beige heels are the perfect finishing touch for your outfit.
5. Conspicuously-colored bag
A brightly colored bag is a loud fashion statement. It’s also a great way to make your whole outfit a bit edgier and more exciting. Matching your bag with your shoes is a trend that is slowly fading away—this gives you more room to play with different colored-bags no matter what shoes you’re wearing.
A conspicuous bag also fits in well with the trends in the warmer seasons, but it can also add some color to the darker fashion trends in the colder seasons.
So, next time you’re looking for a way to switch things up a bit, or a simple way to add some color to your outfit, try a peach or sky-blue bag, and prepare yourself for the looks of admiration that will come your way!
