denim jeans

People have been wearing blue jeans for over a hundred years. Although they didn’t become an integral part of the fashion scene until the 50s and 60s, they have remained a staple of any wardrobe ever since. Denim blue jeans remain a favorite and of course, it has adapted to the times. From bell-bottoms to high-rise, to skinny, to straight jeans, or so on, denim jeans have, denim jeans have so many variations that you can style in so many ways. 

trousers

Trousers, on the other hand, is a different — fancier take. It’s an essential pant, ready for styling. It also remains crucial to providing balance and definition to the rest of the outfit. However, it allows you to simplify your wardrobe as it looks flattering on every person and will fit into your lifestyle. You can wear it to school, the office, or some fancy event. 

cropped tank top

First of all, it’s so damn comfy — especially if you’re in the Philippines’ unforgiving weather. You can break up the look by revealing a hint of skin via this closet staple. When you feel a little conscious of baring your torso, you can consider wearing it with a pair of high-waisted trousers. Crop tops and long skirts go together so smoothly. The combination gives the illusion of a longer torso. If you want to take it up a notch, simply add heels. 

graphic tee

Graphic tees have always risen from the fashion archives of history. Although it has become a wardrobe staple for a while, you can get more creative with the designs and messages you can buy. It gives off the nostalgia factor as a flashback to the 90s. Aside from that, it lets your personality shine. Some graphic tees play a significant role in spreading awareness and powerful messages. Whether you’re a minimalist in fashion or have an eclectic taste, there is a graphic tee perfect for your personal style. 

sweater

One of the best things about sweaters revolves around how they really can accommodate any situation. You can wear them to feel warm and wearing them can also become a base layer for any outfit. Even if it’s not cold outside, there is so much you can use sweaters for. Conscious of showing off your arms? Sweater. A cold movie theater? Sweater. Need to conceal the giant red period stain on the butt of your pants? Sweater. This closet stable will look good no matter what you mix it with. 

denim shorts

It’s hard to find a great pair of denim shorts. However, when you do, it will feel like the most comfortable pair of bottoms you will want to have — especially, in the summer. Personally, I like Bermudas because they remain the perfect compromise of not being too short or too long. The fit won’t feel too tight and wind up being uncomfortable. They’re not too tight, not too loose, and overall just perfectly flattering. 

black one-piece swimsuit

Bikinis shrink and shrink while one-pieces won’t go anywhere. They tend to have a classic and preppy appeal. It’s also athleisure-friendly. When it comes to one-pieces, on the other hand, one reigns supreme: a little black one-piece. It’s kinda like the much reliable LBD. It’s simple, flattering, easy to wear, and can double as a bodysuit in a pinch. 

white sneakers

White sneakers, whether they’re trendy or not, are here to stay. This closet staple is very common. They can be bought cheaply, but their prices can also be manipulated to sky-high costs. It all depends on variation and availability. There are different types of white sneakers that you can definitely buy in order to subscribe to the aesthetic that you want. White sneakers allow you to stop having to think about what goes and what doesn’t.

These closet staples go along well with your other clothing items and accessories. You just can’t go wrong ever.
