The Total Cost of your Wardrobe: 2021 Edition

After almost two years of working from home, it’s time to jazz up your wardrobe. However comfortable it may be, it’s finally time to ditch those pajamas and get glammed up. With holidays around the corner, what better excuse to give your wardrobe the makeover it so desperately needs. The best part is your dream wardrobe doesn’t have to burn a hole in your pocket. So, let’s start budgeting and look at the best options out there.

Gearing Up For Fall

A basic fitted top paired with a cozy cardigan could be your go-to this season. You can never go wrong with this classic combination. It’s best to have a few options in neutral colors. With September ending, it will be fall season and soon you will feel a slight nip in the air. Wearing a cozy cardigan ensures you are kept warm through the day and night. 



Finally, it’s time to embrace jeans once again and there is nothing better than straight fit, ankle-length jeans to complete your entire look. Whether it’s a basic t-shirt, a loose shirt, or a pretty top, there’s nothing well-fitted denim can’t complement.

  • White T-Shirt: Approximately $40

  • Cardigan: Starting at $96

Bring Out The Girl Boss In You

Nothing screams confidence louder than a woman in a suit. Master this style of dressing and feel like a boss with this timeless outfit. The ‘80s have made a comeback, only bigger and better this time. Try wearing oversized jackets or ones with cutouts and stand out from the rest of the crowd. 

The material you choose can also change your entire look and velvet seems to have made quite an impression this time around. Not only is it perfect for the season, but it also adds a touch of flair and sophistication to your entire outfit.

  • Blazer: Starting at $126

  • Jacket: Starting at $123

 

Glam Up For Date Night

Show up in a cute dress or elegant bodysuit and ensure your date can’t take their eyes off of you. Complement it with a belt to accentuate your waist. Make the outfit fall-ready by slipping on a ribbed wool sweater over it and tuck it into the belt. Additionally, you can also pair it up with a moto suede jacket or even a suede twill coat in any pastel shade that contrasts the dress. 

  • Dress: Starting at $66

  • Coat: Starting at $128

Make An Entrance

When it comes to parties, one can never go wrong in a classy cocktail dress. If you feel like you have nothing to wear, you probably have an old black dress lying somewhere in your closet, just waiting to be worn again! Otherwise, if you’re able to, shop online and look for one that is well-fitted and suits your body type. 


Wear a dress to flaunt your curves in exactly the right places. A mesh on the arms is always a good idea, although you could always go sleeveless if you are comfortable. Make sure you carry a jacket along in case the weather gets cold. The good thing about a black dress is it will match any colored jacket — if it isn’t black, pair your dress with a neutral-colored jacket. You can pair the jacket with similar colored shoes as well. You could also pair it up with strappy black heels or crystal-studded boots to complete the look. 

  • Little Black Dress: Starting at $60

  • Jacket: Starting at $123

 

Chill With The Fam

If you’re planning to get away with your family, make sure you pack light. Do not feel overwhelmed and pack a whole suitcase with extravagant outfits. Earthy colors are your best friend, especially this season. 


Take stunning pictures with a wonderful backdrop and similar colors to complement your style. Brown corduroy pants will ensure you look sporty as well as sexy. These pants are versatile and go well with crop tops as well as your favorite sweatshirt. Beige colors go well with these pants as well. If you’re looking for something more comfortable, carry some athleisure wear in dark colors. You can also carry a pair of shorts teamed up with a sweatshirt and get cozy around the fireplace.

  • Pants: Starting at $88

  • Shorts: Starting at $43

  • Joggers Set: Starting at $66


Indulge In Retail Therapy

Everyone loves shopping, whether it’s online or at the mall, and everyone loves to dress their best to feel confident. Try out all the styles you have been waiting for! Wear loose-fit jeans or joggers depending on your needs and the occasion. If price is a concern to you, there are endless ways to stock your wardrobe with stylish items that don’t break the bank. Alternatively, you could try spreading your spending by buying yourself a few things each month. What’s most important is that you are comfortable and prepared for all types of events and occasions.
