Fashion Must-Haves for Multi-Taskers

    Fashion Must-Haves for Multi-Taskers

    First, there’s work. You’ve got several important meetings and you know you’ve got to look your best. After that, you’ll be rushing to pick kids off from school and you know you’ve also got to be comfortable. But then there’s that fancy dinner afterwards, so you’re pretty sure you also have to look glamorous. How on earth can one outfit do all that for you? 

    Enter, timeless, elegant, multitasking fashion. 

    Us ladies are busy. Between the work, the family, and the social events, none of us has the time to spend hours carefully crafting each of our outfits. That’s why we need universal pieces that look good no matter what and that is easy to pair with each other. 

    Here’s what they are: 

    Perfect pair of jeans

    The cut of the jeans is not going to be universal for everyone. You have to find something perfect for your specific body shape, whether it be ultra-slim skinny jeans, butt-hugging mom jeans, or a classic straight cut. Here’s a guide that will give you a hint on where to start.

    Here’s why jeans are so important – you can wear them practically everywhere. If you pair them with a simple button-down shirt you’re ready for work. If you put on a sexy strappy top you’re ready for a party. If you wear them with a silk blouse, a cardigan, and a pearl necklace you’re ready to meet your boyfriend’s parents. Jeans are a classic for a very good reason, so don’t stop until you find the pair that hugs your curves in all the right ways and looks good on you no matter what. 

    Black blazer

    A blazer can elevate any kind of outfit to business casual status. Jeans and a white t-shirt, simple cotton dress, flare skirt and strappy blouse – pair any of these combos with a blazer and you can take that outfit to work-appropriate levels in a second. 

    You don’t really have to stick to a black blazer either. Depending on the color scheme of your wardrobe, other neutrals could also work. Choose navy, brown, beige, or white if you prefer. 

    Light colorful blouse

    If you want a simple yet effective piece, take a page from the Aussie fashion girl rulebook and choose a brightly-colored blouse made from a light material. Australian fashion generally tends to be a lot more colorful, and yet that doesn’t make it any less versatile. 

    You can check out women’s clothing from Australia to see what we’re talking about. A brightly-colored blouse made from a light material is actually effortless to pair with anything from jeans to chino trousers and it’s good way to break the monotony of neutrals.   

    Good leather jacket

    Leather is good for more than rocker chick getups. A good, structured leather jacket can be used instead of a blazer and it will give any kind of simple look more of an edge. Make sure to choose quality leather – even though it’s pricey it can last you a lifetime when you maintain it well. 

    Black leather is certainly the most versatile, but if brown suits your colouring more then feel free to go for a nice brown shade. 

    Ankle boots

    Ankle boots are a must. They are sleek and sexy, and you can pair them with practically any kind of outfit. From jeans and a t-shirt to a pencil skirt and a button-down. Make sure to choose something with a thicker heel that won’t strain your feet. While thin heels are sexy, they’re not very cozy to walk in. If you want practical shoes in your wardrobe then make sure most of your pairs have either flat soles or thick, blocky heels. 

    Oversized shirt

    An oversize shirt can also be modified easily. You can tie it around your waist as a layering technique, or you could tie the ends of the shirt into a knot and give yourself a makeshift crop top.

    The simplest pieces are usually the most effective ones. A tank top can do wonders if it’s well-fitted to your figure, and you can style it in so many ways it’s ridiculous. A simple necklace and a light blazer can take it to a whole new level, or you could pair it with a cute pair of shorts, sandals, and a silk cardigan for a fun summer look.

    Scarves, tote bags, and long necklaces

    Accessories can transform any simple outfit into something glamorous. The most versatile accessories are scarves, long necklaces, and tote bags in neutral colors. If you stock up on these essentials you’ll have something dazzling for every outfit you wear.

    One more important thing before we go – stick to one color scheme. Once you have the right cut and the right colors down, your entire closes will be in complete harmony and it’ll take you less than five minutes to put together outfits each day.
