10 Workwear Outfit Combinations With Clothes Already In Your Closet
Getting dressed for work can sometimes be a chore! You have to get up early, get ready, get the kids up and ready, then take the kids to school and get to work. It can be stressful and tiring. Wouldn’t it be great if you didn’t have to think about what to wear to work? The Simplified Style®: Business Professional Workwear Capsule Wardrobe is a complete 39-piece wardrobe for all seasons of the year, convenient shopping links (to shop for any pieces you may not already have), dozens of outfits for all seasons and more.
Simplified Style® makes it super easy to get dressed quickly everyday…just refer to your outfit calendar, see what outfit to wear on that day, then simply put those pieces on and you’re done!
Here is the Simplified Style®: Business Professional Workwear Capsule Wardrobe I created in my own closet…
Use Your Wardrobe Basics
Having wardrobe basics is a must-have when building your workwear wardrobe. Did you know that you don’t have to have the latest trends to have lots of outfits. The key to having lots of outfit combinations is using your wardrobe basics! Classic and timeless wardrobe basics are always in style and can be worn in multiple ways.
What are wardrobe basics you need in your closet? Here is a list of a few…
- Slim T-shirt
- Blouse
- Blazer
- Cardigan
- Trouser Pants
- Skirt
- Dress
- Pumps
- Loafers
- Flats
If you want to have the most outfit combinations, it is best to have mostly neutral colors, like black, white, navy, gray, and shades of brown. This will allow you to create plenty of unique looks without having to worry about matching colors. It also means that you will spend less time getting dressed in the morning and more time living life!

A Bit Of Inspiration For Your Day:
“Then Jesus told him, ‘Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.’ ” – John 20:29
Perfect posting. Would love to see the same idea [to use what is in your closet] for the others-french minimalist, coastal chic, and actually all the different styles.
This was so good and inspiring.
Thank you
Thank you Donna! I’m glad you liked the post. I plan to do more of these!
First time reviewing, working in the office now is getting challenging with the desk code slipping more to very casual. As a manager I have always dressed more professional so my closet is built around blazers, blouses, midi shirts to wear with boots, short and long, Could you show how to use items in our closet to keep our style but more relaxed.
