Basic Wardrobe Planning & Fashion Tips

Basic wardrobe planning tips are all you need to choose the perfect outfits and accessories for both day and evening looks.

Fashion Tips for Career Must-Haves

9. Signature scarf
   The right scarf can add instant impact to a suit or a crisp white shirt. Pick one in a bold color or vivid pattern; tie it around your neck or onto your purse handle, or twist it and wear it as a simple, but vibrant, belt.
10. Confidence-building suit
    From boardroom to bistro, an up-to-date, well-fitting suit flatters any shape. And it offers endless style options: Wear blazer and pants with a blouse for that impress-everyone meeting; pair the pants with a crisp white shirt and cashmere sweater for everyday; or add a camisole to the suit (along with a sexy pair of heels) for that evening event.
11. Sophisticated leather belt
    A well-crafted leather belt looks polished and completes your look. Pair it over a long blouse, with a suit or to dress up a basic tank.
12. Face-flattering fashion sunglasses
    The easiest way to class up any outfit—for work or weekend—is with a super-classy (and UV-protective) pair of fashion sunglasses. A general rule of thumb when shopping for the perfect pair: Rounded frames soften a square jaw line, square frames slim cheeks and rectangular frames add width and dimension to your face.

Fashion Tips for Evening Essentials

13. A clutch purse
    Accessorize your evening wardrobe with a sleek, compact clutch purse that's just big enough to hold your keys, cash and cell phone.
14. Strappy high heels
    Whether you buy them in satin or leather (silver, gold or black are always good choices), a pair of dressy-looking strappy high heels can be worn year-round to the office—as well as out on the town.
15. Sexy black dress
    Dazzle in a classic black cocktail dress with a provocative neckline. The look of a sexy black dress is simply stunning—now and for years to come.
