One morning, looking for an outfit to wear, I began to reach for a top and scarf that were haphazardly beside each other that happened to match perfectly. But then I saw another sweater that matched as well. And then I thought, “Oh, maybe I should stick with my first idea that I had last night…”
I turned around, looked at another pairing and then another, and sighed, “So many possibilities; there’s too much to wear!” Then I laughed, thinking of the common phrase, “I have nothing to wear!”
My guess is that the latter lament happens to everyone at some time or other. Age doesn’t matter.
After noticing how the outfit possibilities seemed endless, I would write them down to wear later. The list grew to the point where I concluded that I could never wear them all. That’s how I decided to share them with you in this blog.
So let me show you how to come up with more variety in your outfits…

What do you absolutely need for the perfect fall and winter wardrobe? Herein is a checklist for what you need to create outfits for every occasion during the cool seasons. Age doesn’t matter because all of these items are classic and basic pieces. They will go with everything else you own to make a complete seasonal wardrobe that works.
(For a Spring and Summer checklist, see my post on how to make more outfits out of what you have HERE.)
Maybe you already have all or most of these essentials. If not, use this list to fill in gaps in your cool-weather wardrobe or upgrade things that are wearing out (or wearing out their welcome).
I’m not one for paring my clothes down into a capsule wardrobe because I love to have options for creating something a little different every day. But I do believe in having all the basics you’ll need to provide the main structure for a wide array of outfit possibilities.
If you have all the necessities, you won’t ever have to feel like you don’t have anything to wear!
