How to put together a beautiful wardrobe that takes you from
work, to play to romance, around the co
Imagine a wardrobe where everything you have goes with
everything else.
Actually, if everything is black, you know, your bag is black,
your dresses, tops, bottoms, shoes are all black, then
everything would go with everything else. That is the trick some
chic travellers use. All black wardrobe for a holiday in the
city and an all white wardrobe for a holiday by the beach. But
that would be really boring.
Instead of basing your entire wardrobe on black, you could base
it on a versatile color. Blue comes to mind right away.
After all, blue is a great color for the office. That dark blue
outfit gives you an air of authority. Blue is a very
professional color.
Although blue tends to be associated with boys, women do look
great in blue too. If you look great in blue, you could give it
a feminine touch with pink accents. Blue goes well with red too.
Blue is a great basic that goes with most colors. Just look at
your denim jeans which you can wear with tops of just about any
color.
If you look great in blue, you would look fabulous if you base
your entire wardrobe around blue, with a few accent colors and
other neutrals if you like.
Assuming you work in the office weekdays and play on week ends
and go for occasional dinner dates, these items should take you
through life beautifully.
For the office
1. 2 sets of blu
e women's suits. Preferably 1 pant suit, 1 skirt suit, but
pick whichever you are more comfortable with in the office. That
would give you 2 jacket tops you can wear as full suits or swap
around, mix and match for more combinations. Choose the suits in
different shades of blue for more mileage.
2. 1 pair of beautiful blue
pumps that you can wear everyday at work.
3. 1 blue
handbag that is big enough to carry what you need to bring
to and from the office.
4. 1 blue
shirt
5. 1 pink
shirt for days when you want to appear warmer, friendlier.
6. 1 blue
trench coat in case of extreme cold
7. 1 pair of black wool
pants
In a sample work week you could wear the following outfits.
You can wear the blue pumps and carry the blue handbag every
day. Monday: blue pant suit
Tuesday:blue shirt + black wool pants + blue trench coat
Wednesday: blue skirt suit
Thursday: pink shirt + blue pants from your pant suit + blue
trench coat
Friday: blue top from one of your suits + black pants
And more other combinations for the following work weeks.
For play, you just need to add on the following
1. 1 pair of pink
pants so you can move around freely, yet look really
feminine.
2. 1 blue casual top
3. 1 blue
t-shirt.
4. 1 pair of blue
jeans - a must in every casual wardrobe.
5. 1 quilted jacket to keep
you warm
6. 1 pair of blue sneakers that will take you through picnics,
sports and long shopping sessions in the mall.
7. 1 pink
t-shirt for fun.
That would let you have a different outfit each weekend.
For example,
Saturday shopping: blue casual top, black pants from your work
wardrobe, blue sneakers
Sunday outdoor gathering: pink t-shirt, blue jeans, blue
sneakers, quilted jacket to stay warm
Saturday all girls outing. pink shirt from your work wardrobe,
pink pants, blue trenchcoat, blue sneakers
Sunday R&R: Blue t-shirt, blue jeans, blue sneakers
As you can see, you can mix and match your tops and bottoms for
countless gorgeous outfits.
Everything seems to go with everything else.

e camisole
2. 1 blue
dress that makes you look stunning.
3. 1 blue
halter top
4. 1 blue
skirt
5. 1 pink
babydoll top to show your sweet, feminine side.
