Spring basic wardrobe. How to make a fashionable spring wardrobe from basic things? Basic wardrobe bags
In the insta of ugly sneakers, I realized that the rails of the sukofashion story on the blog need to be slightly turned for a while :) And therefore, today it will not be about cellophane raincoats and not about crocs on the platform. And about the good old basic wardrobe chik. Who is happy?
I very cynically sifted through all the upcoming trends and brands and left in this post only the simplest and most understandable things from the spring must-haves - the base. So we have a great reason to go through our closets and think about how to put on a pencil skirt or cotton jumpsuit to update our everyday outfit unobtrusively and at the same time stay away from trendy extremes. You'll like it.
To create a basic mood, I will first show a few beautiful pictures adequate fresh straightstyle. At the same time, we will make sure that trends should not be taken sooooo literally. An awesome bow can be zababahat even in the current wild fashion. We know that the whole trick is in the dosage and competent adaptation. Here's another relevant one:
Well, now let's go down the list. I say right away: I collected it to my taste and according to my criteria of everyday adequacy, so you can easily choose only one thing for yourself - and everything will be fine!
Pantsuit
Actually, it would be possible to stop at this point in today's selection - because well, there is stupidly no more popular thing now. It seems to me that almost all designers and street style went through the costumes from above. I can’t even single out any particular must-have nuance. Well, except perhaps the general impression of masculinity and at least a slight over-dimension. And at the same time, a pooooolnaya rainbow of colors.
Dolce&Gabbana, Victoria Beckham and Ports1961 suits from the spring-summer 2018 collections
By the way, a loose suit also makes you slimmer, who forgot. In general, this is now the number one thing to such an extent that you can walk it stupidly like a suit - that is, without any extra styling at all. Here are examples of current street style and on the guests of current shows:
Please note: in each atufit, the suit is worn over a turtleneck. It's not a requirement, but it's a very good set right now.
And then the most beautiful thing begins: the costume can not only be worn with a total bow, but also divided. At the same time, there is incredible amount outfits of different moods, it turns out that the unfortunate deuce will pay for itself seven times over the next month.
Well, keep after the fiery life hack. If you want nowhere to be more fiery - put on a suit on a naked body with aglicrosses and huge earrings. I shaved into a collage a photo from the Instagram of a clothing store of Belarusian designers @kanceptkrama_by'cause that red suit @rawstore paired with earrings @olga_gradiva demonically beautiful. The second example is the Italian brand Krizia.
Red leather trench coat
Yeah. The shift on red is now total. But at the same time, a leather / eco-leather trench coat is a very convenient thing in the wardrobe. Especially if you filter the podium and choose not scarlet lacquer in your closet, but matte trench coat in any muted shade of red. Plus - laconic style. By the way, even on the catwalks, the trench coats were very restrained. Just excellent.
Joseph, Trussardi and Dior trench coats from the spring-summer 2018 collections
In outfit with him, too, the main thing is not to be too smart. Here I sketched two very simple and relevant combinations: for those who are from my sandbox, I wholeheartedly suggest wearing a normcore trench coat - with trousers, a T-shirt and crosses. Who is categorically against ugliness on yourself - try the option with a loose turtleneck + ankle boots with jeans (trend white is great, but you don’t have to bother).
While writing this post, my feeds were constantly updated with fresh street style from the passing fashion weeks. Red trench coats flicker there quite actively. Basically, of course, in lacquer design - but that's what fashion weeks are for. We just turn on the adaptation mode in our head:
Dark denim jeans
I’ll make a reservation right away: in general, we are talking about any thing from such a strict plain denim - jeans, shirts, skirts, dresses, jackets, etc. But I'm guessing that these simple jeans with a normal fit and without a single torn edge are just the thing that many here missed. So here it is:
These are Max Mara, Tibi and Tom Ford from the spring-summer 2018 collections
There are exactly two things to do with them. First, if desired turn the bottom up so that the light side is visible- this is a hallmark of dark denim and another trendy nuance of spring. Secondly, Pair your jeans with any trendy shoes– be it metallic slippers, white mules or pointed kittenhills. I don’t even offer a bike upstairs! Admit it, who is happy, happy?
Pencil skirt below the knee
I don’t remember if I said it or not - but I have one remark about pencils. I hate it when they are categorically referred to as a must-have base. The base can be a laconic skirt of any style you need.. But what cannot be taken away from a pencil is its effectiveness. And the most perfect pencil - knee length - has just entered the top spring trends. But I hope we understand that this is “behind the knee” for each of us!
Prada, Fendi, Trussardi and Max Mara skirts from the spring-summer 2018 collections
What do we do with a skirt in spring? And you won’t believe it again, but sneakers are not mandatory :) On the contrary, the most must-have addition to a pencil is mules or narrow-toed shoes / boots of any current look. At the same time, something unisex is on top - a loose shirt or pullover. Then you get a more dress code outfit:
To make the bow more relaxed - welcome to the realm of sneakers, oversized sweatshirts, T-shirts and nylon socks with sandals. Do you know which socks are especially in favor now? Toooooo nylon without elastic on top (such as those from Oysho).
Actually turtleneck
In my opinion, I mentioned it in passing already three times in a post - and not in vain. There is an interesting story with a turtleneck: it does not seem to be a separate item in the list of must-haves for spring, but at the same time, not a single actual combination can do without it. Seriously, in any incomprehensible situation, wear a turtleneck. Only one caveat: no oblipon!
Well, as is clear from the context, current trends are very fond of a turtleneck in multi-layer outfits. Anything can be on top - a shirt, a jacket, a jumpsuit, a corset if you want. In general, you must take. And you can immediately have more - because this is generally the leader of the base :)
Checkered coat jacket
I thought for a long time what to include in our list: a plaid jacket, trousers or a coat - because they are all at the peak of popularity. But in the end I decided to draw your attention to a thing that is often found in streetstyle, but I can’t turn my tongue to call it a “coat” in our climate. We are talking about a checkered elongated jacket, which is sewn from suiting fabric and is often googled as a “summer coat”. This is another ever-living and always up-to-date second layer to our collection. Just in time for the warm off-season to wear wide open.
To do with him this spring you need about the same thing as with a suit - it's stupid to wear it. Wide open, under the belt, with flared dresses, jeans and wide silk trousers (they are also in trend, if anything). There are really a lot of options.
Pointy-nosed kittenhills
We have already discussed almost everything about shoe must-haves for spring in separate posts. Only kittenhills offended - or rather, pointed shoes of all subspecies on a small heel. And in our list of trending bases, they have the right place. Just in case, I’ll clarify that this spring we love and wear a bunch of everything at kittenhill - shoes, sandals, mules, ankle boots.
Again, I have already shown some of the most successful combinations above - with a midi skirt and tucked up jeans. But by and large, now kittenhills are a trendy replacement for pointy ballet flats. So you can wear them with anything if possible opens the ankle. I highlighted it in italics, because this is never a dogma, but as practice shows, this is how kittenhills look more harmonious and elegant in outfit.
Coveralls
Well, now let's have a spoonful of honey for lovers of relaxed outfits, otherwise you probably got bored among pencils. I found my favorite among the trendy things - a loose jumpsuit. Fashion sources have called this must-have "worker's overalls", but there is one trick. Material and styling at the same time can be anything. From designers, I found everything from silk to varenki - so we are not limited in choice.
Overalls Stella McCartney, MaxMara, Tibi and Trussardi from the spring-summer 2018 collections
By the way, this is very convenient in terms of basicity. Choose a uniform in your style - and mix it in any way without any problems. I love loose overalls precisely for their excellent compatibility with even the strangest shoes.
Bulky sneakers
Well, at the end of my list - the promised bonus for those who in our Instagram discussion turned out to be on the side of ugly evil :) I promised to include retired ugly sneakers in the list of basic must-haves for three reasons. Firstly, I like them really break popularity records. Secondly, they really work as a great relaxed staple in many modern wardrobes.
And thirdly, outfits with aglicrosses can be beautiful and even feminine. Just take plain light ones.
On this ... not all. But in today's list, I'll still put an end to it. There are still a lot of beautiful and quite wearable things, and we will definitely sort them out for the next six months.
And I have a question: do you want to analyze something from today's list in detail in a separate post? It seemed to me that everything seems to be clear - but if some kind of unanimous application emerges, then I will be happy.
Basic things are the basis of the wardrobe of any fashionista. Despite all its simplicity, such a piece of clothing will fit into any stylish look, so it should be given special attention. Spring - best time to update the contents of your closet. Check if it has basic things that will help you shine on the streets of the city.
Start your spring wardrobe with basic short and long sleeve T-shirts in white, black or grey. It is desirable that they be made from natural fabrics. Almost every brand has these t-shirts. Also add a simple cut blouse or shirt. In this case, black, white or blue is suitable, because it is also considered neutral. If you have an office job, then it is better to have a few blouses.
In case of cool weather, you will need a warm sweater or jacket. A trend that has been on the fashion pedestal for several years and is not going to leave it is an oversized sweater. In this case, you can give preference to beautiful and rich colors: dark purple, deep red and others. The final touch of basic clothing from this category will be a jacket. Since spring is on the street, ditch the classic black and opt for a white jacket. It is suitable for going to work, and for an evening walk.
Pants and jeans
Jeans are clothing for any season. For spring, you will need 2 pairs of jeans:
- classic dark blue, slight scuffs are allowed;
- skinny jeans (skinny) in lighter colors.
No matter how much you are a fan of jeans, you cannot do without classic trousers. Fit straight trousers with a classic cut made of wool blend fabric. It is important that they fit perfectly. If you can’t find trousers that fit well on the figure, it’s better not to spare money and sew them in an atelier.
Skirts
Do not deprive yourself of femininity and include a skirt in your basic spring wardrobe, and even better, not one, but three: denim, wool blend and cotton. Denim skirts are a trend that never goes out of style. A wool-blend skirt is perfect for work, and it's also a great solution for cool weather. A cotton skirt will come in handy at the end of spring, when the weather will already allow you to show your legs. Such a light and flying skirt is suitable for dates and walks with friends.
When choosing basic spring skirts, give preference to classic silhouettes: pencil, trapeze, sun.
Dresses
For work, choose a sheath dress. This is a universal option for any figure. This dress can be worn with a jacket, cardigan or coat. For parties, you should have a cocktail dress. And for warm spring days choose everyday dress. Best of all, a shirt dress made of natural material- Linen or cotton. It is comfortable and beautiful. And, of course, do not forget about the small black dress. This is a must have for any season.
Note! The most appropriate and comfortable dress length for spring is half a palm above the knee.
When choosing a spring dress, discard dark colors and heavy fabrics, leave them for the winter. Prefer beige, light gray, blue or light blue. For the second half of spring, when the streets are already dry, you can also choose a flying white dress, just above the knee.
Outerwear
Let's get acquainted with the ideal representatives of the top spring wardrobe, which will serve you year after year:
- Classic knee-length trench coat. Outerwear is timeless. This trench coat is suitable for jeans, trousers, dresses and skirts. Choose simple colors: beige, blue, blue, black, gray or sand.
- Coat. You can buy one coat for spring and fall, but if your budget allows, buy separate coats for each season. The spring coat is usually kept in light colors, and it is also shorter than the autumn one.
- Jacket. The best solution is a leather jacket. It is combined with many elements of the wardrobe, and the abundance of modern models of leather jackets allows you to choose an option for every taste. However, if you do not like leather jackets, then you can pick up, for example, nylon.
- Windbreaker. This is an elongated textile jacket, which necessarily covers the lumbar area. It is needed in case of rainy and windy weather. It is advisable to choose a windbreaker with a hood. It would be a big plus to have fur lining which can be detached.
Shoes
A set of shoes that you will need from the beginning to the end of spring:
- Boots. The realities of the weather in our country are such that the beginning of spring is always cold, so spring boots are indispensable. Opt for a classic 70s-inspired model in black or brown skin, length just below the knee, snug fit to the leg, stable straight heel, minimum decor.
- Ankle boots. Choose a model that you can wear under a skirt (dress) and pants.
- Flat shoes. This is the kind of shoe for every day. successful model in this category - Chelsea. These boots can be worn in spring and autumn.
- Shoes. Here it is better to buy several pairs: business, evening, everyday. The color and style of each pair must be appropriate.
- Sport shoes. These should be shoes that you can go for a run or just for a long walk. If you already have sneakers, get more moccasins. You can also replace moccasins with slip-ons or loafers that are now fashionable.
- Sandals. This is an option for those spring days when it is already warm enough and you can give up tights. You can buy sandals with heels or wedges.
- Sandals. Daily replacement for sandals. Low running shoes.
bags
You will need 3 basic bags:
- Business bag. The average size. It should fit a laptop if you carry it to work. It is important that this bag is suitable for all business items, including outerwear.
- Evening bag on a small chain.
- Bag for every day. Roomy. It is better to give preference to the textile version.
- If you often visit theaters and other similar places, you can also get a clutch in a neutral color.
Do not think that the basic spring wardrobe is expensive. The peculiarity of basic things is that they do not go out of fashion. Buy the necessary things, and they will serve you for more than one season. In addition, you can wear many things from the spring wardrobe in the fall.
To always look elegant and stylish, it is not at all necessary to have a closet full of things. It is enough to pick up a few well-fitting outfits, and create individual images for every day. And to make these images relevant, a basic wardrobe for 2020, corresponding to the main fashion trends, will help you.
Fashion look for spring and summer 2020: a small but not black dress
Owners of a carefully thought-out, lovingly collected collection of things will not have to part with it. The image will also not require drastic changes, seasonal adjustments will be enough, taking into account current design ideas. To create a trendy basic wardrobe for spring and summer 2020, you just need to purchase a few trendy items.
In any fashion wardrobe there is always a “small” dress that fits flawlessly on the figure and allows you to look stylish in any situation. Today, designers give fashionistas carte blanche regarding the choice of his style, and set only the direction - "cocktail" silhouette. If we talk about colors, then fashion designers are quite categorical here: if we make up a basic wardrobe for a girl for summer or spring, then the dress should not be black.
Cocktail bright dresses for spring and summer
The traditional "little black dress" is giving way this spring and summer to more bright outfits, made in rich blue and orange tones. But most trendy color of the season, one can rightly call pink and a full range of its shades, ranging from delicate tones of tea rose to bright shades of fuchsia.
An important point: when choosing "your" pink shade, you should proceed from your own color type.
One of the "whales" of the summer wardrobe - jeans
When compiling the “basic wardrobe for a girl for the summer” and spring of 2020, let’s not forget about the next “must have” of this season - jeans, an indispensable element of any actual everyday look. And the mom-jeans model (literally translated as "mother's jeans") will help make it trendy, a classic straight cut with a medium fit, which visually perfectly emphasizes the waist and hips.
Fashionable "Mom" jeans remain in the trend of 2020 These classic indigo jeans were all the rage in the 80s, a decade that is of great interest to fashion designers today. With the help of such things, they create actual images in the style of "early retro". If such models seem to someone not elegant enough and more demi-season than summer, it makes sense to pay attention to mom-jeans made of thin denim with the addition of lycra, which look very relevant and feminine.
Stylish blouses spring-summer 2020
Another thing that should definitely be included in the basic wardrobe for spring for a girl is a stylish blouse. Moreover, it should contain both classic models and frankly sexy ones with complex decor.
Fashionistas can choose from translucent models of chiffon with long puffy sleeves, or blouses with frill trim, wide flounces, bow collars, ruffled ruffles, as well as lace matched to the tone of the fabric. The more complex the lines and the more sophisticated the design of the blouse, the more relevant it will look.
Classic blouse for summer 2020 If we talk about colors, then restraint is in trend - designers recommend choosing classic white and gray with its shades. These blouses are equally organically combined with fashionable office sets and casual outfits, for example, with denim clothing.
Basic white T-shirt Such traditional summer clothes for girls as a T-shirt can be a great alternative to a trendy blouse. But in accordance with fashion trends 2020, it must have large inscriptions. Until recently, such T-shirts were considered bad manners, and today they are offered under the world's most famous brands. Definitely in the trend this season - voluminous, as if from a man's shoulder, T-shirts made of silk viscose or expensive cotton. They should be tucked into the waistband or worn with a belt around the waist.
Very stylish and beautiful clothes for the summer - these are snow-white T-shirts with a large laconic inscription on the chest. The letters can be embroidered with lurex or sequins, or embellished with a gold-look print. Such ultra fashionable women's items are recommended to be worn with tight trousers made of fine *wool* or cropped pleated skirts.
Basic spring-summer 2020 wardrobe: safari skirt
Skirts rightfully occupy a special place in the category of "fashion items for girls." In the basic wardrobe of 2020, they should be worn with tops, stylish tees and feminine blouses. First of all, it makes sense to pay attention to safari-style skirts. They make a victorious return to the catwalks, and are recommended for inclusion in both casual and formal sets. Such models will be indispensable when compiling a vacation wardrobe. As for the choice of style or length, here you need to proceed from the features of the figure, taste and, of course, the canons of style.
For sewing such skirts, manufacturers use linen or high-quality plastic cotton. These fabrics wrinkle, so be it, this season it is also fashionable. Croy - simple, A-line silhouette, with patch pockets, stitching at the seams and through button closure. The color can be classic for the safari style: white, cognac, bleached khaki.

Compiling a basic wardrobe is a current modern trend, which consists in acquiring a small, universal set of clothes (mainly classic cut), in harmony with each other and used to create absolutely any look.
The list and type of things selected for everyday use is individual, compiled in accordance with the style, lifestyle and preferences of the woman. All purchased clothes should easily harmonize with each other and be complemented by stylish, fashionable accessories.
Basic rules, mandatory elements
Basic items for women's wardrobe are most often selected in an ageless, classic style, easily combined with any fashion trends.
Rules taken into account when forming a stylistic base:
- All items must be purchased good quality because they are designed for more than 1-2 seasons. Preference should be given to models with a classic cut, offered by various designers, made from fabrics of natural origin. Great attention must be paid to the quality of tailoring.
- Elements of a new wardrobe should easily harmonize with each other. You should not choose T-shirts, dresses, a jacket with bright decor, prints, inscriptions. You should also refrain from jeans and sweaters decorated with zippers and beads.
- Clothing is selected in accordance with the type of figure. The main task of basic things is to hide flaws and emphasize the dignity of a woman. A classic, not too tight fit is preferred. You should not choose trends that do not match your appearance.
- The base is selected strictly in accordance with the field of activity and lifestyle. Casual clothes are not suitable for a business woman, and a student will have nowhere to wear strict blouses and a trouser suit.
- The wardrobe must be suitable for immediate use. Clothing for growth that does not correspond to the lifestyle and is put aside in case of a “sharp weight loss” should not be bought.
