What is a basic wardrobe and how to choose it. Neutral colors for your basic wardrobe

Let's decide on the shore: there is no basic wardrobe for everyone without exception and for all occasions. A white shirt, a black pencil skirt, black pumps and a square scarf, if they are a standard set, are only for the secretary mediocre in any field of activity where extremely conservative, read, archaic, views on life and wardrobe prevail. It is not difficult to guess that the second stylistic decision of a young lady with such a base will be a black trouser suit with the same white shirt and stiletto pumps, which, in case of tired feet, will be replaced with ballet shoes, regardless of the size and characteristics of their owner’s feet.

At one of my master classes, a woman of unknown age approached me. Her parameters were far from the parameters Victoria Beckham(you'll understand why this is important a little later), but her figure was attractive. She was wearing black sheath dress a palm below the knee and patent leather pumps, and in her hands was a bag that was popularly known as “Birkin type”. She proudly announced that she had finally assembled a basic wardrobe in best traditions some fashion gurus, but could not understand what kind of personal style. Needless to say, the twenty-five-year-old girl looked 45? That the black color did not decorate her features at all, but rather erased them with an eraser, emphasizing the “youthful” imperfections of the skin? That dramatic shoes and a classic brunette bob enhanced the effect of “a sultry woman - a poet’s dream”?

She admitted that she was annoyed at the wasted effort, money, time, youth, and lost individuality.

To prevent this from happening to you, remember: the base is the basis of the wardrobe, and everyone should have their own. The specific set varies depending on age, social status, lifestyle, size and texture of appearance. Basic wardrobe- these are not universal things that suit everyone without exception and are equally appropriate in any life situation. They should be universal only for you and the period of life that you live. Universal for everyone - faceless.

There are also no investments that last forever. Exceptions can only be unique, rare and legendary branded items. Collect them in style current image within the capabilities of people with developed aesthetic taste, well-versed in the field fashion trends and fashion history. Any things tend not only to wear out, but also become obsolete. AND " timeless classic", in the understanding of the majority, this is business suit And cashmere coat, will not be an exception. Black pantsuit in white stripe, bought in the 90s, in 2018, will look old-fashioned for a number of reasons, and the fashion for this era will not save it. Everything changes: cut features, fabric compositions, color solutions, new prints appear. Finally, you and I are changing too. Therefore, let's leave the idea of ​​​​"investing for centuries" and start investing wisely in our appearance Today. Believe me, with this approach you will feel great tomorrow.

The basic wardrobe should be modern. And a modern basic wardrobe is colored. Black, gray and beige as wardrobe staples are outdated. In addition, not everyone manages to “save face” in such colors.

In addition, you must clearly understand that a new basic wardrobe is not specific items that must be purchased. If a trouser suit is on the list, this does not mean that it should be the same for everyone: a lawyer will most likely suit a business suit made of high-quality fabrics without unnecessary details in restrained elegant shades, for an actress - an extravagant option made of velvet or jacquard in bright shades, and For it-girl - avant-garde cut double-breasted jacket oversize With wide trousers into a cage. Please note that all three suits have every right to be in one woman's wardrobe and used on weekdays, on holidays and on a relaxed Saturday.

I have collected 30 cases that will help you create a basic wardrobe modern woman. Not included in this list Sunglasses, because give general tips in such a matter it is possible only in theory, but in practice - “well, the good old aviators do not suit everyone.” In addition, all shoes in the basic wardrobe must fit all sets and be interchangeable. I also deliberately included more items so that you have the opportunity to ignore items that are not close to you without compromising the quality and functionality of your wardrobe.

The main rule: there should be three or four tops for one bottom. Thus, with only one trousers and one skirt, you will get not two sets of clothes, but from 8 to 16.

Before each item, feel free to put the definition “relevant” and remember that the choice of model is yours:

Coat

You definitely can’t do without this wardrobe item. Current models are oversize, crombie, chesterfield, trench coat. It is not forbidden to purchase a couple of models at once.

Light coat

A light coat is an indispensable basic item for early autumn, late spring and cool summer. The most versatile and elegant model - without a collar or buttons, with a rounded shallow neckline, straight cut, two palms long above or below the knee, with or without lining. Despite its lightness, the coat must be made of high-quality durable materials, keep their shape well. Give preference to light or bright shades, interesting prints and textures. In the category " summer coat“You can include all variations on the kimono theme, as well as high-quality cardigans if you just can’t part with them.

Cloak

The most current model is the trench coat. However, it is not only the legendary Burberry, its sharp angles, length, respectable color and conservative attitude cannot adorn everyone. Trench coats are now worn to the floor, midi and just below the knee, flared or straight, in classic and bright colors, made of cotton, leather, jeans or silk. If you don't like the idea of ​​a trench coat, check out more feminine models with a round collar and a supate fastener, swallow pockets, a small vent. This model can be worn with or without a belt.

Bomber

The principle of selection has not changed. If it's not yours, ignore it. If you don’t know what it is, come to my master class.

Sweater (winter and summer)

A model with a loose (that is, not tight), laconic shape, plain, any color that suits you is suitable. Practice shows that colors that “love” one woman combine perfectly with each other. For winter and the off-season, choose a warm one, perhaps with braids; for spring-summer - from light, but not loose knitwear.

Sweatshirt (winter, summer)

Here you can take a walk. For conservative people, discreet monochromatic models in delicious or watercolor colors are suitable, for progressive people - daring sports colors, for creative people - with a pattern in the pop art style or with loud slogans and catchy inscriptions.

Shirt

I recommend boiling white to people with dark skin and a perfect smile. This means that the color of your teeth and the whites of your eyes should be competitive with the shirt. Basic option - male type, without decor, “your” color, according to the principle of choosing a T-shirt. You also have every right to have a checkered shirt (we choose individually) and a denim shirt in your wardrobe.

T-shirt

The same principle of choice as in the case of a sweatshirt. Most basic version- straight cut model, not tight, keeps its shape. It can be white, gray, blue, lime, orange, pink, lavender and other colors.

Sleeveless top

Made from silk, chiffon or mixed fabrics. The choice of model and color is yours, the main rule is as few details and decor as possible

Lingerie top

No lace! Can be worn under a jacket, light coat, bomber jacket, raincoat, or over a T-shirt.

Blazer

Classic blue double breasted with metal buttons, copper, brass, silver, gold, with anchors or heraldry. It is the fittings that distinguish a blazer from other members of the jacket family. Has the right to be any other deep color.

Casual jacket or sports jacket

Any jacket that can be worn to the grocery store, to your child's school, or for a walk on a Sunday. It can be corduroy, in a funny pattern or print.

Jeans

The main thing in jeans is quality and fit. Choose models with a minimum amount of elastane in the composition, which hold their shape well and miraculously gather your figure. Low landing is losing its position in fashion, high-waisted models, cropped and straight, or cropped and flared, are relevant. And yes, jeans have every right to have not only dark- Blue colour, but also light gray, graphite, blue.

Culottes or any other trendy trousers

Strange shortened “pants” came into fashion several seasons ago and are not going out of style. The main rule is to choose a complementary length.

Modified skirt on the “pencil” theme

I conjure: do not buy a “black” pencil! Give preference current models with an interesting cut or unexpected drapery, with an asymmetrical hem or wrap.

"Flying" skirt

Anything that flies, flows, shimmers, or leaves a trail will do. A pleated skirt is a great choice.

Pantsuit

As I already said, choose the option that suits you. This applies not only to your figure, but also to the event you are going to wear it to.

Tuxedo dress

Dress shirt

Cocktail dress or cocktail jumpsuit

Loafers

A pair of loafers will perfectly “play” not only with pantsuits, but also with simple, slightly cropped jeans, a T-shirt and a casual jacket. Considering how many of these combinations can be put together, the versatility of such shoes is difficult to overestimate.

When I was just starting my stylistic searches, I was very passionate about the idea capsule wardrobe. (And not just me: we still have one of the most popular search queries on our website -). At some point it seemed to me an absolutely universal system. However, time passed, I sorted out my wardrobe needs and preferences, bought a lot of good things, but the closet remained disjointed (more precisely, consisting of many separate capsule parts that were mixed together in random order and constantly caused annoyance and irritation). Now a stage has come in my life when I want minimalism - get rid of the unnecessary, organize the necessary, choose “less, but better.” And this brought me back to the idea of ​​a single - basic wardrobe, which I am now gradually collecting.

To the roughest approximation, a basic wardrobe is the minimum possible wardrobe: several tops + several bottoms (the combination of “top and bottom” can be replaced by dresses) + outerwear, accessories and shoes, which in the event of a nuclear war of moving, a financial crisis and the inability to update your wardrobe will be enough to exist in them and perform all your social functions.

The first rule of a basic wardrobe that I formulated for myself: the base can be anything by color, style and cut. All these canonical lists like Evelina Khromchenko’s look very tempting (and beautiful), but questions arise here.

Classic trousers and beige pumps may be useful for an office worker from Moscow, but what should a mother on maternity leave from Jerusalem, a student from Shakhty, a local doctor from Petrozavodsk, or a front-end developer from Pattaya do with them? Can they become a staple in everyone's everyday wardrobe? Of course not. A basic wardrobe should primarily take into account the lifestyle climatic conditions, type of appearance and, in general, an understanding of who you are.

How individual should a basic wardrobe be?

There are two main approaches to a basic wardrobe. The first is that it should consist of a rigid set of very simple and universal things (that’s why it’s the basis) and, in principle, the list of these things will be more or less common for everyone (hence all these canonical White shirt, pencil skirt, sheath dress and so on). The second approach is that the base can include absolutely anything, even a tutu skirt and a T-shirt with Kurt Cobain, even a boho dress with pantaloons, there may not be black and white or there may not be other colors except black and white, the main thing is what are you wearing? The second approach is closer to me, but I believe that it needs to be treated very carefully, and here’s why.

Even if we accept as a fact that the basic wardrobe can be anything, this will only work if your personal style is expressed quite clearly (due to great awareness or character traits), and your lifestyle is moderately specific. However, what to do if you have neither a clear craving for something specific, nor a desire to stand out in any particular way, nor an innate instinct or observation that allows you to unerringly snatch “your” things from hangers? If you actually work in an office, wear a pencil skirt and just want to look normal and have a comfortable closet? Then there is a danger that, after reading about the Very_Individual_Wardrobe, you will begin to think, should you include motorcycle boots (which you generally like) and an Indian sundress (which really suits you) in your base. And perhaps this approach will simply confuse your wardrobe, making it difficult to combine and non-universal. Therefore, it is important to immediately determine for yourself how bright and specific you would like your entire wardrobe to be and what deviation from standard list you personally require.

In my opinion, a basic wardrobe could be like this:

And yet, how can you understand that in all cases this is a basic wardrobe, and not just random sets of things? If a basic wardrobe can be anything, why bother putting it together? And the difference is that the base is not things, it is their combination. So that the base is just that, a base and you can string any images on it within the framework of your style and lifestyle, inside the base, all things must be 100% compatible with each other. This, in general, is the main problem with most cabinets: there is nice pants, but only one sweater fits them, there is a warm sweater, but it only matches with a black skirt. It seems that everything matches the color, fits, and looks stylish, but the combination algorithms are too complex - and the wardrobe falls apart.

The common rule “buying new thing, imagine if you can combine it with two or three” in this case also doesn’t work very well: if these two or three are not basic and do not make up a set, then new purchase can become a dead weight along with them, because there will always be something missing from a complete set. Let's say I have excellent trousers with creases (classic, therefore, basic), they are combined with a white shirt (basic), one jacket (also basic) and shoes. Formally, the rule is followed, but I can only wear this in one combination and in one situation (pants+shirt+jacket, formal look). This set, not a base, despite everything external signs"basic thing". But in fact, these trousers will become a base if they are paired with a sweater (to create a more relaxed look on a cold day), a T-shirt (do the same, but with a jacket), a sequin top (to go to an exhibition), matching coat, ankle boots of the right height (otherwise how to wear this in cold weather?), hat and so on. Then what comes to the fore is not what things are, but how they fit together. Therefore, a basic wardrobe is simpler collect whole(for example, create a set in polyvore or a list that will become your plan, and gradually buy more things according to this plan).

Signs of a basic wardrobe

• uniform color scheme and uniform style(it doesn’t matter whether it’s a specific style - “boho”, “romantic”, “business” or whether it’s your personal story - “Bonnie and Clyde”, “hipster”, “space ranger” or whatever);
• all the tops of the base (the base, not the entire cabinet) are combined with all the bottoms of the base both in color and shape;
• thin alternates with volume, hard with soft, smooth with textured (this principle helps to avoid duplication of things of the same function and at the same time close the maximum of possible combinations);
• wardrobe is self-sufficient within different situations one season (that is, if necessary, these things can be used both in the office, and on a walk, and in the theater, and at a party).

In fact, there may not be so many things in the base - 10, 12, 15, but they all make up such a hard skeleton on which everything else is strung. Some will be comfortable with this minimum, others will add the same amount or twice as much - but both will have a reliable foundation that makes the wardrobe work.

A very rough list of basic wardrobe items

In each individual case, the composition of the wardrobe will be different (someone needs more dresses, for some, trousers), but if you are more comfortable focusing on lists (yes for me), then here is the general ratio of basic wardrobe items, which I formulated from viewing numerous sets of basic wardrobes. ( I remind you again that this list is just for the base - there can be at least 50 pieces/pairs of T-shirts/pants/sweaters/sandals in the wardrobe, but among them there should be a minimum in which everything goes with everything ). And this minimum is:

1. Tops - bottom layer(tops / T-shirts / shirt - everything that goes with the body): 3 different subjects.
2. Tops - second layer (sweaters and cardigans): 2-3 different items - something thin, something thick, something long: for example, a small fitted cardigan or jumper, a large sweater large knit, duster.
3. Bottoms: 3 different pieces (more formal and less formal) such as jeans, trousers, skirt.
4. Universal quick top: e.g. basic dress or overalls.
5. Shoes: at least a pair for the season (boots, sandals) + 1 pair of universal ones comfortable shoes(sneakers, sneakers, timberlands) + 1 pair of universal formal shoes (pumps, pointed ballet flats, patent leather loafers - depending on the overall style).
6. Tops - third layer (jackets and coats): minimum one item per season
7. Bags – large/backpack (less formal) and small/clutch (more formal)

Wait a minute, you say, so little? It's a good old capsule! (Not really)

This is a capsule

How is a basic wardrobe different from a wardrobe capsule?

A capsule is a small closed system. . Moreover, additions won’t really help here. There may be several capsules in your wardrobe. A basic wardrobe is precisely a universal skeleton that can be overgrown with meat and supplemented, such a necessary minimum for different cases, but for it to work fully, not be boring, meet trends or fulfill some other goals, it requires additional accent things, which will not necessarily be combined with each other.

And there is one more important difference.

Basic wardrobe colors

The main paradox of the basic wardrobe is that the more monochrome and boring it is, the more varied combinations can be made with this base.

That's why perfect colors for a basic wardrobe, no matter how punish it may sound, the basic ones: black, gray, beige, brown, dark blue... And the basic things themselves should be as simple cut, without unnecessary decorative details that complicate compatibility.

For example, this base, as it might seem at first glance, belongs to a sad bore who, by the end of September, will howl with melancholy in these colors.

But if you remember what it is base, and not the entire wardrobe, then life becomes more fun. When there is a base that matches each other, then you can buy a variety of things that match in color, and they will give many ready-made combinations. So, for example, a pink fur coat from Cheburashka could settle as a dead weight in any wardrobe, but in our case it can be worn with black trousers, and with leather leggings, and with a skirt, and with a white shirt, and with a rough sweater, and with gray dress- and all will be well. Without hesitation, you can take a “banana” bag with any combination of basic things. And even striped flares, which most women will rack their brains over in the store, figuring out what to wear them with, our imaginary bore can easily fit into her wardrobe.

Of course, there are limitations here too. It is unlikely that you will be able to add cute retro to this base (although you can try adding something from the 1920s); it will compete with ethnicity, rustic style, and so on. The set of combinations will still revolve around rock, grunge, pop art and romance, set by colors and basic things. But even in this form this is already a lot, and for most people three or four styles are more than enough to express themselves and not get bored.

(I made this seemingly obvious observation when I went through my entire closet and discovered that there were a lot of great things in it that suited me, but there was not a single simple black top that would allow me to wear all my pants. And only after drawing basic kit in polyvore, I saw things that need to be added).

Yes, as for “add”...

Should a basic wardrobe be expensive?

There are two main strategies for allocating your wardrobe budget (and they both make sense). The first is to invest in basic items, because these are the ones you will wear most often, and therefore they should be of the highest quality, and complement them with inexpensive and short-lived trendy or unusual things(which will quickly go out of fashion or just get boring). The second is to use the simplest and most impersonal basic things (including those from the mass market) and quickly change them as they wear out, and create an image with the help of more expensive designer accessories and shoes. ( It is clear that it is even better to be healthy and beautiful, and to have the best everything, but still most of us have to choose).

Both strategies have their own arguments, pros and cons, and only you can determine which one is more appropriate in your case. I can only assume that if your wardrobe is focused on greater demonstrativeness (for some reason you want to emphasize success, belonging to a certain social group or follow the norms accepted in your circle), that is, it makes sense to choose more expensive accents (they are more noticeable). If a conservative approach is closer to you and comfort is more valuable, then most likely, investing in the base will give you what you are looking for.

Make Your Style, where it is more convenient: V

Many people like the multifaceted and varied color blue. Therefore, almost every person can find clothes in shades of blue in their wardrobe. Moreover, this color is often the main one, both for men's wardrobe, and for women.

Beloved by many, blue is often associated with the color of the sky and sea. Therefore, blue is subconsciously perceived as a symbol of calm, openness, and purity.

Blue lovers tend to be modest, noble and prone to melancholy. In addition, they are trusting, know how to listen and understand others. Fans of blue are very conservative at heart; they do not like change and are reluctant to accept new trends.

Blue color is recommended by psychologists as a means to relieve nervous tension. It is recommended to choose blue clothes before important interviews, negotiations, and exams. This choice will help you overcome anxiety and concentrate on what is most important.

Opponents of blue clothes, most often, turn out to be restless, restless people and not too confident in themselves.

Color in fashion history

For many centuries, blue color in clothing occupied a leading position. But people did not manage to “tame” him right away. At first, fabrics were dyed using a simple vegetable dye, but it was unstable, and the paint quickly faded in the sun and faded when washed.

It was only in the 15th century that indigo dye, brought from the East, appeared in Europe. And this made it possible to establish the production of fabrics with resistant colors. Blue began to appear in the clothing of noble people and, over time, almost replaced red. Red remained a symbol of the power of the emperor and the highest clergy, and princes and other high-ranking persons preferred to dress in blue.

It should be noted that since the Middle Ages, blue has never gone out of fashion. It was also used during Puritan times, since dark shades quite modest, and in times of reverence for a riot of colors in clothing, since bright blue looks festive.

Who is it suitable for?

Blue is a universal color; it suits everyone without exception. You just need to choose the right shades.

Girls with very fair skin blue should be used with caution, trying to “move” the color away from the face. For example, blue dress It should be worn with a collar of a contrasting color or tied with a neckerchief.

Blondes with tanned skin bright blue is great and brightens up their appearance. Very good in blue redheads, but they are advised to avoid monochrome looks by using accessories of different colors.

Dark-haired girls with light skin can wear a variety of shades of blue, but are encouraged to more attention pay attention to makeup so as not to look too pale. A dark-skinned brunettes You can safely buy any things in blue, almost everything suits them.

We combine

Blue color looks very diverse. Dark colors – great choice for business looks, light ones for romantic ones. Blue goes well with other colors. Here are the most successful combinations:

• With red. These are antagonistic colors, so combining them in a set requires a certain amount of courage. When composing blue-red sets, do not forget that one color should be the base color, and the other should be used in a much smaller volume. For example, a blue dress can be the base, and a red bag or shoes can be an addition. When combining red and blue, it is recommended to avoid dull tones; both colors should be presented in bright shades.

• With brown. This duet is less provocative than the previous one, but the rules for composing the ensemble are the same - one color is basic, the second is additional.

• With yellow. This combination will appeal to bright personalities who love to be the center of attention. Combination of bright shades will suit For friendly party, and if you combine muted tones, the image will turn out romantic.

• With gray. Rich blue tones look especially good with all shades of gray.

• With white. This is a classic, long-established combination that looks very elegant. All shades of blue go well with white.

• With orange. This is not the most common, but acceptable combination. To compose a set, it is better to use things in bright blue and some neutral tone (for example, beige), and use orange for a bright accent. For example, a cornflower blue skirt can be worn with a café au lait chiffon blouse and an orange belt.

• With pink. The combination looks especially good on young girls. It is recommended to use bright shades of pink and light blue.

• With black. The duet is a bit dark, but if the ensemble is put together correctly, it will look good. You can combine these two colors in one thing. For example, a blue dress with black inserts on the sides is perfectly slimming and is recommended for plus-size girls.

• With green. This combination is not used very often, so it allows you to create original images. It is better to choose muted shades of green - wormwood, mint, etc.

• With gold. The combination of gold and blue looks aristocratic and solemn. Blue in this duet should be dominant, and gold is used as finishing.

Fashionable looks

Many interesting and fashionable looks can be created using a variety of items in blue shades.

Only blue

Many shades of blue allow you to combine them with each other, creating a variety of looks. It is advisable to use three shades of color in the ensemble, with a smooth transition from light to dark. An example of such a combination would be a set of a light blue shirt, indigo trousers and dark blue ankle boots.

You can create an autumn look using a blue coat. You can wear it with jeans and boots in other shades of this color. A bright cornflower blue scarf will complement the look.

Everyday looks

Few people have such a thing in their wardrobe as blue jeans. This base element, on the basis of which it is easy to create the most various bows. We combine jeans with T-shirts, blouses, sweaters, and tunics.

Many ensembles can be created based on dark blue classic trousers. For example, in the fall they can be worn with a gray turtleneck and beige coat classic cut. To make this ensemble even more elegant, complement it with a black wide-brimmed hat.

Quite a lot interesting images can be created using a blue jacket as a base item. It can be combined with trousers, skirts, and dresses.

A blue dress can be included in both summer and winter wardrobe. For the cold season, it can be made of wool or jersey. For summer - their cotton or linen fabrics. Blue ones look interesting denim dresses and sundresses. They can be sewn in a safari style or have an A-shape.

Business images

Dark tones of blue allow you to create discreet images, which is why they are often used in office fashion. Basic thing could be a blue business suit with a skirt or trousers. In combination with a snow-white blouse or turtleneck, it will look both elegant and strict.

You can wear costume elements separately. For example, a successful set will come from gray trousers And blue jacket, A blue skirt can be combined with a beige blouse.

Blue business dress can have both muted and quite bright shade. In the latter case, it should be worn with a black jacket. If the dress is of a muted tone, then it is better to combine it with accessories in bright gray or brown shades.

Evening look

A blue evening dress is a great choice to create chic look. For evening dresses As a rule, dark, rich shades are chosen.

For special occasion you can sew a floor-length blue silk dress and complement it with gold-colored accessories. Short ones are better for youth parties. Cocktail Dresses with bright accessories.

Evening makeup for a blue dress is best done in contrasting colors. You can use terracotta, copper, golden shades.

Choice of stars

Deep blue color is a great option for grand entrance. Stars often choose this color for their outfits. For example, actress Brie Larson, who received a golden Oscar statuette for best female role in 2016, she wore a chic blue dress with flounces and a train to the ceremony.

Basic or neutral colors, as they are also called, are notable for their discreetness and simplicity. The key function of such colors is to serve as a background for other colors and balance the image. Let's figure out exactly how they can serve you.

Why do we need neutral colors?

The group of neutrals consists of the achromatic range (black, white and all shades of gray), and all beige-brown tones. More complex shades of dark blue, and, in which there is an admixture of other colors, or, for example, are often also conventionally called neutral. But in fairness, it should be noted that they do a noticeably worse job of serving as a background. Although such shades can be very useful.

Neutral colors are needed to create a rational basic wardrobe. All girls periodically face the problem of “nothing to wear,” and the reason lies in an excess of active, catchy, memorable things with a complete lack of basic ones. The disadvantage of a wardrobe compiled in this way is that each blouse in it is combined with 1-2 things. If you are interested in stylish experiments and searching for your own non-standard solutions, then it is useful to have clothes in basic colors, although boring in appearance, but suitable for everything without exception!

The secret is simple: things that are bright in color and design are important and necessary, but it is clothes in neutral colors that provide wardrobe variability and the ability to create diverse looks with them.

How to choose colors for a basic wardrobe according to color type?

As you can see, mixed shades close to the group of neutrals significantly expand the possibilities for cool color types. But complex tones make an even more significant contribution to the basic wardrobe for those with colors: almost all of their colors are mixed. Directly from neutral Spring And Autumn only and remain. Delicate will also decorate golden beige and. Reddish-brown paints are suitable: and. Yellowish and nutty are good for both warm color types.

You'll be surprised how much easier it becomes to create outfits after purchasing a few pieces in neutral colors. It can be just plain clothes in your favorite styles, or models close to the classics that will become full-fledged components of the basic wardrobe. If you pay attention to the selection in accordance with the color type, the images will become more individual and harmonious.

A variety of possible styles, versatility of use in any environment and situation and maximum accessibility for different color types. These colors are used to create small but functional wardrobes.
Every woman has items from different styles and that's reasonable. Any style can be your favorite, but society has its own requirements. You can’t come to the office in safari style, but a business style would be inappropriate in a club, and in both cases, you will most likely be sent home, because there are norms and rules. Therefore, like it or not, you have to adjust your wardrobe.
For some, shopping is fun, but for others it is hard work. All this depends on the available finance and knowledge in this area. With limited investment in clothing, items are purchased for long-term wear, matching as closely as possible with all other items in the wardrobe: both in style and color.
So, what colors are the most practical?

Black base color in clothes

Brown is a fundamental color; it is healthy both psychologically and aesthetically. But any coin has reverse side, a color close to the earth, has long been attributed to rabble and excrement. And there is still an opinion that shades of brown in clothes can tarnish the reputation of a respectable person in business.
You can especially love this shade because of the variety of color combinations that you can create with it. Combinations with brown distinguished by sophistication and sophistication. This is due to the fact that this shade carries the imprint of almost the entire spectrum, and each color resonates with it. Of course, the power of such combinations also comes from the brown undertone.

Blue base color in clothes

Dim ones are also basic (these shades do not include blue tones). Discreet, extremely cold, intelligent blue tones are an alternative brown color. He is noble by all standards. Women who prefer these idealistic shades are not prone to cheating and are different developed intellect. But on the other hand, they suffer from arrogance, avoid new acquaintances and are uncommunicative.

Blue also has a wide range of shades, but perhaps still less than brown. So the main undertones of this color are green, red, purple and gray. In the autumn-winter collection fashionable colors 2015 became a popular shade, which was actively introduced into many clothing collections.
