An important factor in building a wardrobe

is to build it around “core” or “basic” pieces. If you’re on a “budget” it is still important you purchase high quality core items as these wardrobe pieces usually remain fashionable for a long time.

Here are a few basic wardrobe suggestions:

Bras/Underwear: One to two bras – (neutral and black)
