It is all to familiar, the dilemma a woman has when it is time to get dressed. You know what I am talking about. Standing there with a a closet full and feeling like you don't have a thing to wear. Well it's time to find the solution. I started doing something called wardrobe capsulingmany years ago. It has saved me the stress of getting dressed. It has become a recent trend and is so amazing at making life smooth in the dressing department. I have been capsuling well before it became a thing. I like to think I invented it. Ha ha! I just never shared my ideas publicly. So when it gained popularity lately, I just swooned! I am posting a video showing 27 essential items that help build a foundation wardrobe. I also give a very brief explanation of capsuling colors in your wardrobe. I will go in more detail on later posts about that. Today on this post I want to focus on My personal Top Thirty essentials for building a foundation wardrobe. Here goes......
Dark Denim
The
perfect pair has the power to truly transform how you look and feel.
Whether you dress ‘em up or dress ‘em down, dark denim jeans will always
work, and always impress.
Cashmere Sweater
Treat
it well, and a cashmere will last you a lifetime. The ultimate in
wearable luxury, it layers on style, warmth, and eternal class in a
practical, pretty way.
Leather Jacket
Not
just for tough types, the leather jacket is an investment piece that
only gets better with age. It’s both classic and edgy, making it a go-to
statement layer that works from office to evening.
"A great leather jacket is the 'little black dress' of outerwear. It becomes sleek over a dress for a dinner out, or edgy with boyfriend jeans on a Saturday afternoon."
Sophia Prose
Striped Shirt
A
striped shirt says, “I work hard and play well with others.” Mix and
match this easy pattern with other prints, brights, and neutrals to your
heart’s content.
Black Dress
Whether
it’s little or long, the world’s most universally-chic piece of
clothing checks all of our boxes, all of the time. Look for finishing
touches and interesting cuts that make yours feel special.
"Classic and polished year-round, the blazer provides an element of chic to dark denim and black skinny jeans."
Tailored Blazer
Slipping
on a well-fitting blazer is always a smart idea. It’s the ideal layer
for day or night, and looks best when perfectly cinched to accentuate
your waist.
White Silk Blouse
Easy,
breezy, and yes, beautiful. A silk blouse instantly elevates any
outfit, whether you pair it with a skirt for work or jeans for play.
"The versatile white silk blouse is the ideal balance of power and femininity. And once you add a quarter tuck in the front, it's pure perfection."
Structured Leather Bag
Quality
leather lasts forever, and structure ensures it never looks sloppy. Opt
for a tote that’s large enough to stash daily essentials but won’t
border on briefcase size.
White Oxford Shirt
Quality, Wrinkle free, crisp white Oxford. it can be dressed up or down and is super classy.
Black Pumps
They look great with jeans or dressy pants. You can wear them with dresses and skirts. They dress up casual outfits and add a splash of class. A must have! Choose a heel height comfortable for you.
Basic Neutral T Shirts
Get quality t shirts because you will wear them a lot. Get a few in different neutral colors.
Black pencil Skirt
This skirt will look classy and sleek. it can be dressy or causal and is wardrobe essential.It looks best knee length or just or the knee cap.
A Maxi Skirt
Pick one in a pattern you love. I love stripes. This is where you can add some personality to your basics
Black Skinny Pants
Quality, structured, black pants look amazing on everyone. They look great under tunics and can be dressy or causal. Every gal some good black pants.
Black Caridigan Sweater
Choose a well made Black cardigan. you can go for structure or a loose style. Choose one that fits your style. I stick to classics.This is an essential layering item that works with everything.
Black Flats
Choose some adorable black flats. You can go with a ballet flat, or a trendy shoe. This is another self expression item.choose quality, you will use them a lot.
Gold Watch
A beautiful gold watch is classy and timeless. You can choose one that reflects your taste. You can't go wrong with this beautiful timepiece.
Pearl Stud Earrings
Beautiful pearl stud earrings look great with anything. They are a classic and beautiful addition to any wardrobe. When in doubt go with pearls.

Brow Sandals
Can be worn with pants or dresses. They bring a causal feel to your classic wardrobe. The ultimate comfort shoe.
Black Riding Boots
Quality leather lasts forever, and structure ensures it never looks sloppy. Opt for a less trendy classic style so they will last for years.
Black Ankle Boots
Ankle boots are bit more trendy. Mostly because of cut and style. If you go classic you can wear them a long time, and they are bit more comfortable than riding boots.
White Sun Dress
It will never go out of style and is an excellent choice to have in your basics. it's like the LBD for summer

This is a great way to add color to your basic wardrobe. You can wear them under blouses that are deep cut, to the beach, Working out, and even under cardigans. These will take you a long way.

A Statement Necklace
This is a trendy item. It will take your fashion looks a long way. Pick one that reflects you, from bohemian to classic chic like Audrey Hepburn looks. You will be dazzling in a statement necklace
A Trench Coat
Warm enough for fall and perfect for rainy weather. It is a fashion statement and famously worn around the world. you can't fail in fashion in a beautiful trench coat.
Winter Pea Coat
My favorite winter coat for cold climates is a black pea coat. It's classy, warm and stylish. When a coat is the main thing seen in your wardrobe during winter, a pea coat makes a stylish statement.
A Dark Denim Jacket
Looks great with sundresses and can go with almost any of the basics of your wardrobe. it has a very causal feel and is a classic.
Floral Print Skirt
You can wear it with a blouse or t shirt. you can pair it with a striped shirt or jean jacket. It's so fun and versatile and adds some texture to your basic wardrobe
