How to Get the Biggest Bang for Your Clothing Buck? Get Back to Boss Basics

I used to be one of those people who thought if the clothing didn't have detail or personality to it, it wasn't for me.  If it's too simple, it's boring and I'll never wear it.  This was fine until I had a closet full of pieces that would only work with one other thing, and soon became tired of wearing that same combination.  Talk about boring!  I have since learned the "beauty of basics" from Judith Rasband.  These are clothes with simple lines and shapes and generally minimal patterns.  I love that they don't attract a lot of attention to themselves so I can easily change how they look to fit my mood and occasion.  They don't get boring quickly because they are so versatile. They have become my WARDROBE WORKHORSE pieces and will also serve you well. You won't regret investing more into these pieces because you WILL WEAR THEM MORE!  They actually allow more freedom to be creative!  Which of these basic clothing style have you tried? Which would you like to try?
