However, there are staples for your wardrobe that will allow you to always look fashionable and change up your look for each new season and almost every new fashionable trend that comes your way.

White Button Down Dress Shirt - This type of shirt never goes out of style. You can wear this short with jeans or dress pants. You can also use it as a cover over a tank top and leave partially open. You can update it with different buttons each year or add a sexy belt to cinch the waist.

Black Dress - No matter what size you are a black dress is necessary to any closet. Black never goes out of style. The great fashion tip for black dresses is that you can change of the look of the dress without much work. You can add a colorful sweater, a bright belt, or a soft shawl. The one thing you always want to make sure you do with a black dress is get that right cut for your shape. If the dress fits you right you can never go wrong.

Black Slacks - Black slacks are a necessity even for the people who live in jeans. Black slacks are perfect from nights out to funerals and you never have to worry about someone telling you they are old fashioned. The one thing to make sure of is that the material is neutral, no corduroy or linen those are seasonal and sometimes phase out.

Black Skirt (Preferably Knee Length) - OK, so for women who love to be sexy this does not illicit ideas of steamy nights out, however a sexy pencil skirt and black blouse will turn men's heads no matter the generation or fashion trends. Knee length skirt also allow you the option to have it altered if you so desire to a shorter skirt allowing you to get more wear out of one piece of clothing.

Black/White Shells - A nice neutral colored tank also never gets old. They are great for summer but even better as way to change up your button up shirts or add color under some of your see through clothing.

Then the accessories are where you can bring in the punches of color and whimsy that makes you an individual. Don't shy away from being yourself, these pieces are just the key ingredients to add the fashionable flair to your funky wardrobe.

    One of the grand things that I have always loved about being a woman is that we can take something very cheap and simple and it make it look like a million bucks, See, we can get away with getting some 7 dollar shoes,a 5 dollar skirt and 10 dollar shirt and jazz it up to look like a two hundred dollars. Men don't even try it because we will know. I love this article...thanks for sharing!
