Women's wardrobe for everyday life. Classic white shirt blouse. How to diversify your everyday dressing style
We present you with a selection of things that will help you to be stylish and you will feel comfortable.
Women have long won the right to wear trousers. Today there are plenty of trouser styles. But fashion dictates its own rules every season and you can't keep up with it. Take a closer look at chinos. This style is suitable for any type of figure, choose a neutral color - blue, gray, khaki. This will make it easier for you to combine them with other items of clothing.

A white shirt paired with chinos makes for a pretty stylish tandem. You can also use light blue. In any case, a shirt in a man's cut looks pretty sexy on a woman. Add original accessories like a pendant, necklace or scarf.
Let's dispel the myth that a pencil skirt is just an office option. Now there are many models in different materials, which allows us to wear a pencil skirt in any situation. This skirt can be worn not only with classic models of shoes, but also with sports ones.
The jacket is also not a purely office option, while it is very functional. Sets with a jacket allow you to look stylish and restrained, but without unnecessary officialdom. And for a lady with a plus size, a jacket is a kind of magic wand, as it makes the image collected and adjusts the figure.
You can feel comfortable and look stylish with a cardigan. It suits both slender girls and those who want to hide some imperfections of the figure. Plus, it can be combined with many wardrobe elements, making it versatile.
I would like to pay special attention to accessories - hats, hats, scarves, scarves, gloves - this is not only stylish, but also warm in cool weather. A bright accent in the form of such details makes the image unique.
In the autumn-winter period, do not worry that outerwear will depersonalize you. Now there is a wide selection of down jackets and coats that allow you to look feminine and comfortable enough in any situation, even on a walk with a child. Give preference to not too bright, but not dark shades, so it will be easier for you to choose accessories.
And, of course, shoes. For everyday wear, high heels are not the best choice. It is better to choose models with a low stroke or a small platform. Although a wide heel is no more than 6cm high, it will also work. Your legs will not get tired, the image will be more collected, and the gait will be more feminine and light.
As you know, they are greeted by their clothes, which is why the issue of forming a wardrobe is a task that needs to be given due attention. In recent years, more and more people can be seen who prefer non-brand comfortable clothing. What could be easier than hiding figure flaws behind baggy dresses and cardigans, wrapping yourself in a cozy oversized sweater, changing into ballet flats or sneakers ... All this undoubtedly makes life easier, but the abuse of practical things in the wardrobe can be really destructive for style.
As a rule, residents of megalopolises have a special love for practical things, and this is not surprising. It is much easier to move around the city in shoes with low speed than in high-heeled shoes, because you can run up to the bus and by the end of the day you do not feel tired. It's the same with clothes: putting on your favorite sweater and trousers is a matter of seconds, it is much more difficult to think over an outfit every morning, carefully choosing accessories and shoes.
However, you should remember the golden rule, beautiful outfits can be comfortable, you just have to carefully select each item of the basic wardrobe. For example, instead of buying an oversized dress in the hope of hiding figure flaws, choose a model that will not only hide the unnecessary, but also emphasize all the winning features (and hooded dresses never emphasize anything, remember).
An alternative to black clothes can be clothes with correctly selected prints or original colors, which will definitely refresh your image, and not make it as invisible as possible. Below we will consider the main dangers that lie in wait for lovers of comfortable, but at the same time nondescript clothes.
1. Shapeless outfits
The boom in oversized fashion is already passing, clothes in your size will always look better on you than those that are 2-3 sizes larger. If parting with your favorite oversized things is absolutely impossible for you, then at least adhere to the rule: the whole image should be built on only one big thing. For example, for a wide sweater, you should choose jeans-pipes or skinny pants, and for a voluminous cardigan - a dress that fits your figure.
2. Dark palette
Many people mistakenly believe that black color in clothes works wonders: putting on it is like putting on an invisibility hat, so you can become completely invisible. However, overweight women and men should not limit themselves to black and dark gray. Correctly chosen colors can also hide a couple of extra pounds, but at the same time the image will be lively and energetic.
3. Combination of incongruous
Sweatpants, a stretched sweater and ballet flats - such combinations are completely unacceptable in a wardrobe. Despite the fact that individually you may like each thing, in tandem they can look awkward. If you are already choosing a casual, sports or military style, then be sure to adhere to its canons. Also, always consider where you go in such an outfit and whether it is appropriate for the situation.
4. Fairly worn clothes
Jeans or a jacket may be the most beloved, but it should be remembered that with each next wash, the thing will lose its appearance, stretch, fade. It happens that a thing is so much to your liking that you simply close your eyes to these shortcomings, but you cannot do that. Say goodbye to things as soon as they have lost their neat appearance, throw them away and buy new ones without regret. This is the only way you will always look 5 points, but at the same time your wardrobe will not be cluttered, and you will always have a clear understanding of what to wear.
It is indicative, but very many things from those that the fair sex consider practical and comfortable, fall into the list of those. Check the list of anti-trends to avoid mistakes!
At drawing up a capsule wardrobe we must certainly focus on our lifestyle, because the main task of the capsule is to provide us with the necessary versatility. It can hardly be called a universal wardrobe in which clothes prevail, which we will wear at least a couple of times a year. If you are a mother with a baby on maternity leave, or you just love comfortable clothes, and your lifestyle does not imply an office dress code, then this article is for you.
Our task is to build a universal capsule wardrobe, that is, to choose such things that would be comfortable to wear, but would also be well combined with each other. Therefore, we need a sufficient number of basic things.
Since this wardrobe is focused on women who are mostly at home, on a walk with children, in various childcare facilities, etc., or on people who love and appreciate comfortable clothes that are not burdened with a dress code, then clothes, respectively, we will select the most comfortable one that does not restrict movement. Since the owner of such a wardrobe needs to move around a lot, participate in outdoor games with children, etc., trousers will occupy a leading place in such a wardrobe.
So that, despite all the convenience of the clothes we have chosen, our sets look stylish, it is necessary to select a sufficient number of different ones, they are able to transform any outfit.
Of course, do not forget about the seasonality: this wardrobe will be suitable for cold or cool seasons, that is capsule wardrobe for spring, winter or autumn.
The capsule wardrobe below is just an example. We all have different tastes, shapes, colors, so you will make up your wardrobe individually for yourself, focusing on your preferences. But this example can be used as a template, as an inspiration or a source of ideas for your the perfect capsule wardrobe.
The following proportion provides the greatest versatility to the wardrobe: two tops on one bottom. This means that there are twice as many tops in such a wardrobe than bottoms. Therefore, we will use the "Rule of Four" when compiling casual capsule wardrobe, that is, casual style. ...
Before putting together a capsule wardrobe, I would recommend that you first decide on the color palette, since the versatility of the wardrobe will also be ensured by the fact how well things combine with each other, not only in style and shape, but also in color. All colors should match your color scheme to highlight your natural beauty. ...
For example, I have chosen the following color scheme, suitable:
- neutral colors: warm gray, khaki, camel and cream
- accent colors: terracotta, blue and coral.
Step 1. Basic tops, jeans and a cardigan
Of course, it is worth starting from the base, since no matter how boring these things may seem to us at first, they will allow us in the future to provide us with that incredible versatility of the wardrobe that we strive for. With the help of basic things, we will be able to dilute brighter, more unusual objects, creating harmonious sets.
First of all, start with a well, no, perfectly fitting jeans. It is best to choose the most versatile style that suits you, without cuts and scuffs (after all, we are talking about basic jeans), you can wear these both in a feast and in the world. ...
The owner of this virtual wardrobe opted for straight blue cropped jeans.
In accordance with the "Rule of Four", we select two tops to one bottom. These will be two neutral tops. For example, T-shirts in dark and light neutral colors. In our case, cream and khaki. Try to choose T-shirts from natural fabrics, without synthetics, in order to feel the most comfortable. Also, it is better to prefer a loose fit, rather than tight options, they will look a little old-fashioned. You might even try trying on a t-shirt over a size you are wearing. Subsequently, such a T-shirt can be worn both as a bottom layer, under a cardigan, jacket, vest or shirt, and by itself, outside or tucked in in the front, leaving it hanging from the back. This trick won't work with a tight tee.
Use a long, oversized cardigan as a top layer. It is better to wear it unbuttoned (so it will significantly slim you, creating two long vertical lines on the sides of the figure) or tied with a wide belt if you have a well-defined waist.
You can immediately think of basic accessories. In such a wardrobe, a large, comfortable bag that can be carried over the shoulder will never be superfluous to keep your hands free, in a neutral color.
Basic shoes are best for low travel, such as chelsea boots. They are very versatile and will suit almost any outfit.
You can add an infinity scarf. It is also better to choose jewelry that is very versatile, for example, a minimalist bracelet and a pendant on a long chain. It will not only decorate any set, but also visually stretch the silhouette.
Even such basic things can look interesting with accessories:
Step 2. Another jeans, turtleneck, basic sweater and shirt
At this stage, you can pick up one more trousers or jeans, but not so basic. You can give free rein to your imagination and choose either colored jeans and / or ripped and / or other cut.
The virtual hostess of this wardrobe chose skinny skinny jeans in a neutral color from her color palette (khaki) for even more versatility. On the one hand, these jeans look more interesting, as they are colored, on the other hand, they will suit all objects of her wardrobe thanks to the choice of a neutral color.
You can choose a comfortable basic sweater in a neutral color as a top layer for this block. It can be worn on its own or with shirts, dresses and a turtleneck.
At this stage, you can replenish your arsenal of accessories with another bag (for example, a dark gray bean bag is very roomy, and, at the same time, versatile, it will fit well into a casual wardrobe) and interesting shoes with a small comfortable heel. Large long earrings look very beautiful as jewelry on most types of faces and figures ( ).
You can add one more accent, more massive pendant necklace (trend!). It works well as a decoration and scarf, only it is better to wear it with everyday things so that your outfit does not resemble a flight attendant's uniform. Now neckerchiefs are again at the peak of their popularity. Pair this shawl with an oversized T-shirt or plunging sweater.
Just a few examples of sets that can already be made from such a so far meager wardrobe:
Step 3. Wide leg pants, accent top, vest and basic vest
Often, young mothers make a choice in favor of jeans and practically do not crawl out of them. But this is pretty boring. To diversify your wardrobe, take a look at other comfortable styles of trousers. For example, such wide trousers with stripes are now not only incredibly relevant, but also very comfortable. , therefore, such trousers can be worn not only with sports objects, but also with a jacket and the same shirt, for example.
As two tops, you can choose one comfortable knitted top in an accent color (just try to choose non-tight models) and a vest. You will definitely appreciate the versatility of the vest if it is not yet in your wardrobe. It goes well with all things, it can make a pair of both sports trousers, jeans, and skirts.
As a top layer in such a casual wardrobe, a so-called utility vest will work well. In the spring, such a vest will help you create many stylish, but, at the same time, comfortable sets.
A voluminous backpack is just a lifesaver for a young mother, because it allows you to painlessly carry everything you need with you, and at the same time leaves your hands free.
You can also add another scarf and comfortable low-cut shoes such as brogues or loafers as accessories.
A versatile choker and long, minimalist earrings will complement this casual wardrobe.
Just a few examples of kits that can be made from the available items:
Step 4. Accent tops + basic pants and jacket
Young mothers not only walk with their children, there are situations in life when you need to dress more representatively. For this occasion, a pair of well-fitting trousers never hurts in your wardrobe.
At this stage, you can complement your wardrobe with a pair of accent tops of your choice. It can be a T-shirt with a lettering or a top with a print, for example.
And as a top layer, at least one jacket is required in the wardrobe. But, since you do not need office clothes at the moment, try to choose the appropriate jacket. It is better if it is a rather voluminous, non-fitted model that will go well with other everyday things.
Earrings with a colored stone will help to complement the collection of accessories. You can also add another rather voluminous bag, this time an accent one. Another convenient option is a shoulder bag that can be carried as a messenger bag and will also keep your hands free.
Just a few examples of kits that can be made from the available items:

The image of every woman is unique and inimitable. It includes a wide variety of items in various styles and colors. But the presence of individual items is not all that is in the general wardrobe. Its core is a basic set of things that everyone must have. Why is this needed and what does the basic wardrobe of a modern girl include? Let's consider further.
Mainly, the things that we select as a base and as a special version are distinguished by their practicality. The basic wardrobe consists exclusively of those elements that can be easily combined with almost any option, they are quite versatile and often convenient.
