Proving to be the most influential factor in informing my wardrobe additions; it’s texture. Items with some sort of tactile quality have been top of mind, in part because I think many of those wardrobe basics lists (that my closet is full of), tend to fall a bit flat. Lacking in excitement, but laden with versatility. Perspectives around what constitutes a “wardrobe basic” has shifted in the past two years. Moving away from static, inflexible lists, to have a stronger focus on what you personally wear on repeat. This is to say, just because a wardrobe basics lists states you should have a black blazer and beige trench, doesn’t mean your wardrobe needs to have either of those items. This isn’t news, and I’ve been talking about this for some time now, but it’s something worth repeating in an age where it’s easy to get caught up in what we see in a perfect Pinterest girlies wardrobe. Anyway, here’s five outfits all featuring some element of texture.
