We all have our go-to outfits that we repeat more than we like to admit. Whether it’s because we don’t have enough time in the morning, or we’re just feeling a bit lazy (it meeee!), we all need our reliable, easy-to-put-together ensembles that always work. More often that not, our go-to outfits feature a base outfit that provides the perfect foundation for having a play with the items in your wardrobe.
Behold, the base outfit! Wearing my Anine Bing tank (sz XS – also here, similar here and here), The Fold trousers* (sz UK 8 – similar here, here and here), Arms of Eve earrings*
In fact, if we shift from a go-to outfit mentality (or a ‘style uniform’ as it is often referred to), to a go-to base outfit approach, you open yourself up to a world of possibilities when getting ready despite the lack of time (and energy) in the morning. This is a great way to get more bang for buck from your wardrobe too, particularly if you’ve taken the time to invest in good quality staples.
In this post, I’m sharing how my base outfit of a racer tank and relaxed fit trousers, can take me from work to weekend by a simple swap of accessories and outerwear pieces. I’ve really taken things back to basics by opting for white on top and bottom.
So, let’s go through the five outfits:
