I don't know about you, but I'm already looking forward to upgrading my fall wardrobe. But as much as I love the new trends, I understand that every season certain styles go in and out of fashion. So it's important to have some classic pieces hanging in your closet. From the LBD to a white button down shirt, here are some pieces that will NEVER go out of style and are worth the investment!
Do you own any of these classic pieces? Let us know!
The Trench
If you don’t already own one, make sure to make room in that closet for this fall staple. My mother and my abuelita all owned one and yet it still hasn’t gone out of style. Make sure to invest in a good quality trench that can handle some bad weather but is still chic enough to wear over an interview outfit or a dress if you have some hot dinner plans.
The LBD
If you don’t own one by now, I may need to call the fashion police on you. Yes, I’m serious! No wardrobe is complete without this timeless, little black dress. The LBD should fit perfectly and flatter your figure. You should be able to dress it up or down for any occasion. So, make sure to ALWAYS have one on hand at all times. No excuses!
Comfortable, Stylish Flats
Don’t even think about wearing those chunky gym sneakers anywhere outside of the gym. I won’t allow it! A pair of stylish but comfy flats is so essential to have. Wear them on a day you don’t feel like pulling out the heels, or throw them in your purse if you plan on being out all night in your favorite 6-inch taconazos!
Standard High Heels
Speaking of tacos alto, you should also have a pair of these on hand. They may not be comfortable, and you may not consider yourself a high-heeled kind of chica, but you’ll find that every here and there something will come up where no other shoe will fit the occasion. High-heels not only style up any outfit, but elongate your figure and adds some instant sex appeal!
A Black Blazer
In all honesty, nothing seems to pull together an outfit better than a blazer. Invest in a well-fitted blazer, it will bring a touch of sophistication and style to whatever you’re wearing. Can't find one that fits you just right? Buy one that’s a close fit or that’s slightly bigger than your size and take it to the cleaners to get hemmed.
Dark Blue Jeans
It doesn’t matter if you prefer skinny, boot cut or straight, every woman should own at least one pair of well-fitted, flattering and comfortable dark jeans. The style that’s for you will depend on your body type and what fits you best. The awesome thing about dark denim is that you can dress it up or down, something you can’t normally get away with, with lighter washes. Make sure to invest in a good laundry detergent specifically designed to keep dark clothing looking new. And always turn your jeans inside out before throwing them in the wash, which will also help prevent the color from fading.
Pencil Skirt
The pencil skirt is designed to accentuate the natural curve of a woman’s body, making it one of the most feminine pieces of apparel you can own. My abuelito fell for my grandmother seeing her everyday coming out of work in one that hugged her hips perfectly well. So you can kind of say if it wasn’t for that skirt my mami probably wouldn’t exist and that would mean I would have never been born! Now do you understand the power of a pencil skirt? Good, make sure you have one!
The Classic White Shirt
Whether it’s a silky top, a button down or a basic, plain T-shirt, the white shirt is an absolute must-have! Wear it under a blazer or with your favorite denims and you’re good to go!
