We’ve all seen a list of the 10 most versatile wardrobe pieces you should own. You probably already have some of them. The trick to making wardrobe pieces versatile is making them your own. Each piece should be representative of your personal style.
On any must-have list, you will find the classic white shirt. I find this shirt in almost everyone’s closet. However, most people don’t actually wear it. Why? Because they saw it on the list and went out and bought a classic white shirt, not a shirt they actually want to wear.
When you are purchasing staple wardrobe pieces, keep the following in mind:

Do you put together an outfit for a specific event with ease, but have trouble creating new and different looks for every day? Your wardrobe may suffer from lack of versatility.
Your wardrobe lacks versatility if…
1. You buy similar items to those you already own. The new black shirt you loved in the store is less exciting at home when you realize the outfit you will create looks the same as the one you always put together with your other black shirts.
2. You buy an outfit for a specific purpose and then never think about it again. Break up the pieces and think of other ways to wear them. Add accessories or layers to change the original look.
3. Your clothing purchases deviate from your true wardrobe needs. Buying what you actually need is a key element to feeling stylish and put together all the time.
4. You are not buying clothing in your correct size. Fabulous but ill-fitting items will do you no good hanging in the closet. Buy clothing that fits you as you are right now.
5. If you don’t have a mental inventory of what you own. Make an effort to edit your closet at least twice a year. You will remember what you own and will now be able to determine if a new piece will be a versatile addition to your wardrobe.
More often than not, each piece of your brand image was created when you needed it, but not altogether in a strategic fashion. Your image may look fine, but does fine help you grow?
Eventually as you scale, your image foundation cracks, and the way your business presents itself no longer helps propel growth – costing you time and money to fix.
