Have you ever stressed filed through your clothes thinking you have nothing to wear? I have definitely been there as well! Lately, I have been thinking about how to condense my closet so that I feel less overwhelmed when I look at my wardrobe. Even though it is good to downsize and donate clothes you do not need anymore, it is important to remember what items you need in order to make the most of your closet! Here is a list of pieces that I know I need to keep my fashion game strong and keep my closet complete.
With the weather starting to chill, it is time to bust out your favorite jacket! Whether you are rocking a leather, bomber, jean, maxi, trench, etc. you are sure to make a statement. It is important to have a jacket not only for the practicality of keeping warm but also showing off your style. Throwing a jacket over a shirt and jeans can create a simple yet cool outfit. You will be ready to rock the chilly weather.

It ain’t just about the little black dress anymore, there are MANY ways to bring out your fancy side for that date night, special event or night out with the homies.
