I have to be honest, being a blogger and moving to a new city every month is amazing (I feel so lucky!), but definitely comes with its challenges. The biggest one being it’s just not possible for me to accumulate a lot of extra ‘stuff.’ I only have two suitcases (plus whatever I can fit on my body! IYKYK!) and my favorite backpack to get all of my belongings from one destination to the next. So it’s really important that I find staple pieces for my wardrobe that can be worn all year long, no matter the climate or the season.

Even if you aren’t living this crazy lifestyle like I am, I think it’s so important to stock your closet with things that don’t just get 3-4 months’ worth of wear before it’s too warm, too cold, etc. Here are my must-have staple pieces that get used all year long in my wardrobe.
- Bodysuits – These are great for wearing on their own as well as layered under sweaters, blazers, flannels, overalls, and more! I like to keep my closet (suitcase!) stocked with a few neutral colors that match everything in my wardrobe.
- Denim – I usually keep 2-3 good pairs of denim on rotation in my closet all year long. They can literally be worn super casual with sandals in the summer, or my favorite boots in the winter, and should be a total staple in your closet. I really value high quality denim so if I am going to invest in a good pair (or three!) I want them to work for me, no matter the season.
- Hats – my Lack of Color hat is a tried and true staple in my wardrobe year round for a reason. It is such a fun way to jazz up any outfit and really take it to the next level. Whether going for a date night or brunch with the girls, a good, neutral hat will go a long way in your rotation.
- Basic Tees – I love a good basic tee, but the key for me is to get high quality, breathable, comfortable ones. They can be paired with denim shorts and skirts in the summer, and under your favorite flannel or blazer all fall and winter long.
- Sneakers – If you’ve been following me for a while, you know sneakers are basically all I wear (other than my Uggs!) and they literally go with everything from jeans to workout gear to skirts and denim shorts. A must have in any solid wardrobe and always my top recommendation!
