In my Wardrobe Essentials section, I'm going to show you all of the items you need to have a great capsule wardrobe no matter your age or your body type. All of the items I present are classics. They've been around for decades and are the core of any men's wardrobe. If you have these clothing items in your wardrobe you'll have everything you need for any event or weather condition.
I see a lot of guys getting interested in looking better and the first thing they do is go out and buy the first designer thing they see. What usually ends up happing is the outfit they just purchased ends up being worn once because it doesn't fit in with their lifestyle or the other items in their closet.
Take a look at our 33-Piece Capsule Wardrobe and you will see that every item in that capsule is in the essential wardrobe section because they all work together. The styles are classic, and the colors are neutral. Almost every piece in this wardrobe can be swapped out for any other piece. Check out my outfit ideas section or my Instagram account and you'll all the combinations that are possible with just the basics.
Also, a lot of guys think if you're not doing bold patterns or logos then you're just boring. I completely disagree. If you're dressing in classic styles with modern cuts that fit properly I guarantee you'll turn heads.
Get the basics down in this section and you'll have hundreds of outfit combinations for any situation. You won't have to break the bank buying a ton of clothes and you won't have to go out and replace your clothes every year because they're no longer in style. Keep it clean and cut right and you'll have pieces that you'll be able to keep around for years.
