Timeless doesn’t always necessarily refer to a modern or classic item.
A timeless wardrobe is one that speaks to your personal style and supports your lifestyle; it offers flexibility without undermining quality.
Trends come and go, but personal style is forever.
Selecting modern and classic pieces to create a truly timeless wardrobe is not only dependent on how familiar you are with your personal style, but also how well the composition of your wardrobe meets the composition of your lifestyle.
Your wardrobe won’t be able to “last through the times” per say, if it’s not even going to work for next week’s plans. A timeless wardrobe is made up of foundational pieces that offer longevity with many opportunities for versatility; this makes adapting to different seasons of life easy without overspending on new clothes.
Why Create a Timeless Capsule?
I can come up with a long list of benefits to a timeless wardrobe, but a few of my favorites are below…
Lifestyle Flexibility
Truthfully, you’re going to be able to do more. A timeless wardrobe, in combination with a little adaptability allows you to be ready to go, whenever, wherever. You’ll never find yourself saying, “I don’t know what I’m going to wear,” again; because you’re either going to have what you need or have the essentials to be able to adapt accordingly.
Polished Look
Although your timeless wardrobe may not be a closet filled with “classic” pieces, a wardrobe that is timeless to one’s personal style will always be able to offer a polished look. Whether it’s elevating or descaling an outfit, the ability to adapt is essential to a polished look; but a timeless wardrobe makes this simple because the pieces are strategically chosen for layering, proportioning, and texturizing purposes.
Longer Repurchasing Cycle
The difference between a wardrobe and a timeless wardrobe is the investment behind it. Between the intention, time, & financial investment made to ensure each purchase is strategically aligned, there is a longer time period between purchases because the satisfaction of each purchase is greater. Despite what some say, most people spend less money on clothes when creating a conscious capsule because they’re willing to invest and understand sometimes the best thing you can do for your wardrobe is learn to say no.
