    I've never heard or thought of considering the categories of "basics" like you've outline. I always felt like I needed a basic skirt and I have some that fit that but I'm not really a skirt wearer and if I thought of my skirts as statement pieces (because I never wear them often) then I'd probably pick something different than what I have now and maybe even wear it more often!

    • @EmmaStyleMe
      @EmmaStyleMe  4 года назад +3

      Yes! That is why it is so important to figure out your basics for yourself and not let other people tell you what you need. There is no reason to have a “basic”skirt if you rarely wear skirts. Just have a fun statement skirt that you wear on occasion. Focus on your style uniform and you will have pieces that you will actually wear.

    Hi Emma! You've really inspired me to buy less, and buy pieces that work harder in my wardrobe. I've cleared out lots of stuff I had kept hold of because it was all lovely quality and I still liked it, but I don't have the same job anymore, so never wore the mostly smarter pieces. Although I have bought a few new things since the shops reopened, I've been wearing them all and enjoying them, and they suit my lifestyle much better, and I still have much less clothing overall. It's great to see your channel growing.

    Thanks for sharing these videos Emma! I've watched so many videos on capsule wardrobes and it didn't really stick until i saw this series! I tend to wear skinny jeans and some kind of top most days and I've been so bored with that combination. So i've always tried to venture out of that silhouette, but I never pick those other styles because they aren't natural for me, and i go back to my jeans and top. I realized that skinny pants + loose tops are my comfort level, so i went on pinterest looking for some other skinny pants options and i got some more inspiration!

    I also tend to do this and buy a lot of tops instead of bottoms lol. Unsure if my wardrobe is lopsided though but I think too most of my bottoms don’t fit very well which kinda sucks :(

    • @EmmaStyleMe
      @EmmaStyleMe  4 года назад +1

      It totally happens! I am really picky with tops so I just never end up buying many and so my wardrobe consists of all bottoms and jeans haha. Planning can really help because I least know what exactly I am looking for. For you, just work on finding a brand or style of bottom that you love and really fits well.
