Examples of classics include:

Jeans

Turtleneck

Cardigan

T-shirt

Sleeveless Sheath

Tailored Jacket

Crisp shirt

Trench Coat

Kelly bag

Penny loafer

There are some years when these styles are more popular and some years when they're less, but they continue to sell well because they fit a variety of body types and offer a simple, unfussy silhouette. Get them in basic, solid colors, and you can wear them for years to come.

But won't you get bored with “same old thing?”

Only if you have no imagination.

The neat thing about classics is that they not only look great all by themselves, they serve as a wonderful backdrop to flashier pieces. Add a snazzy jacket, funky hosiery, or a great pair of shoes, and you'll be able to brilliantly showcase new piece using your classic staples as a backdrop.

Your friends, family, and coworkers will think you spend a fortune on your clothes, when in reality you're merely adding a few “to die for” pieces each year. It's a clever way to expand your wardrobe choices without overspending your budget or over-cramming your closet.

So next time you're in a quandary as to what to add to your wardrobe, opt for classics. They're clean, versatile, easy-to-wear, and make most of your budget. Dressing well just doesn't get any easier than this!

Silly magazine blurbs ("HOW TO GET A GUY TO COMMIT," "IS HE CHEATING? 10 TELL-TALE SIGNS!")are designed to make readers feel insecure enough to "need" products advertised within. Do not let them sway you into accepting shoddy behavior. Ignore misguided proclamations about male sexuality from women who've talked themselves into allowing rotten behavior from so-called "lovers."

Raise your standards. Expect only best men to enter your life. Allow no cheaters, liars, abusers, mama's boys, or controlling toads to cross your threshold.

Hold out for man who will adore you and lift you up. He's out there, and you deserve nothing less.
