It’s no secret that we love a minimalist wardrobe at James Smith. Our leather slides have been designed to be understated but chic, with emphasis on the luxurious leather, materials and colours used.
Fast fashion is rapidly declining this season as fashionistas opt for staple pieces that will last the distance. The older the better as each piece improves with age. But how do you choose the perfect minimalist wardrobe? It’s all about embracing less is more.
How to create the perfect minimalist wardrobe
Decluttering your wardrobe makes it easier to organise and focus on the key fashion pieces you love. Some of the key staples to building a minimalist wardrobe are:
- A good pair of jeans in a blue denim and neutral colour (black often works best)
- Soft material high quality tees – white, black and nude
- Lightweight neutral jumper
- Structured blazer or leather jacket
- Woollen coat (if the weather calls for it)
- Silk camis in neutral colours
- Ankle Boots
- Minimalist Slides (not that we are biased)
- A cute mini skirt
- Some summer wrap dresses
This isn’t to say you can’t purchase your next favourite on trend outfit but the above will form your go-to wardrobe pieces for the basis of a chic tailored outfit.
The other key points to a minimalist wardrobe are that you should love each item and they should be comfortable and easy to throw on.
