How To Maximize Your Wardrobe: Shop Your Closet

Shopping your closet is an easy way to refresh your style. Your existing wardrobe holds endless potential if you know how to style it right! We believe in helping you rediscover the magic in your closet while making the most of versatile, timeless pieces.

Here are five effortless ways to shop your closet and create stunning outfits:

 

1. Rediscover the Art of Layering

Layering isn’t just for adding warmth—it’s an effortless way to create fresh looks using what you already own. Start with basics like a sleek bodysuit or a favorite tank top, and layer with a blazer, cardigan, or even a button-down shirt worn open for a casual vibe. Mix textures to add dimension and visual interest to your look.

Style Tip: Layer a summer dress over a turtleneck or button up for a transitional, cold-weather outfit. Our denim tube dress paired with our balloon sleeve button up is a great example of layering seasonal pieces to make them season-less.

2. Go Monochrome for Effortless Chic

A monochromatic outfit always looks intentional and polished. Gather pieces in similar shades from your closet—whether it’s beige, black, or a pop of vibrant color—and pair them for a cohesive, sophisticated look. Use different textures to avoid a flat appearance.

Style Tip: Monochrome is perfect for showcasing accessories, so pair with a bold bag or statement earrings.

3. Experiment with Proportions

Mixing fitted and oversized pieces is an easy way to breathe life into your existing wardrobe. Pair boot cut jeans or leggings with oversized sweaters or jackets, or balance wide-leg pants with a tucked-in fitted top. This contrast adds a modern edge to your outfit.

Style Tip: Rework oversized tops into tied or cropped looks to create a trendy silhouette.

 

4. Reimagine Versatile Staples

Dig into your wardrobe for those reliable, multifunctional pieces. A sweater dress can double as a longline sweater over pants, while a maxi skirt can be styled as a strapless dress. Don’t be afraid to get creative and reimagine your staples in unexpected ways.

Style Tip: Use belts to cinch loose pieces and create new shapes and fits.

 

 

5. Elevate with Accessories

Accessories are the easiest way to reinvent your closet. That scarf you’ve tucked away? Try wearing it as a headband, a belt, or even tied to your bag. Statement necklaces, bold earrings, and structured bags can transform even the simplest outfit into a showstopper.

Style Tip: Rotate through accessories you already own but rarely use to rediscover their styling potential.

Bonus Tip: Create a Capsule Collection

Spend a weekend curating a “capsule” from your existing wardrobe—choose 10-15 pieces that you can mix and match effortlessly. Not only does this simplify your daily styling, but it also helps you identify which items work best for your lifestyle and items that you need to add to complete your wardrobe.
