For some fashion people, classic pieces are the most-worn staples in a wardrobe. And yes, this is particularly true for Sandy Koszarek, the mastermind behind Stylish Sandy. She worked as a VIP stylist at Nordstrom and spent years helping clients curate their wardrobes. While she suggested Wholesale Replica Bag trends to her clients (and certainly wore and continues to wear them herself), it was often the anti-trend finds that were the front-runners because of their versatility.
In reference to Koszarek's personal wardrobe, she has a selection of items (also favorites of her clients) that she's turned to repeatedly for years because they feel modern yet timeless with their classic silhouettes. The pieces in question always feel relevant to her given that they're not overly trendy.
Below is the list of Koszarek's tried-and-true staples that she thinks will never feel dated because of their classic nature. You'll also find outfit ideas showcasing how she styles the picks and shopping recommendations sprinkled throughout.
1. Neutral Blazer
"A wardrobe staple I often wear is a neutral-color blazer. It's the perfect piece that instantly completes my outfit, making me feel chic and put-together." — Koszarek
2. White Button-Down Shirt
"A wardrobe staple I always reach for is a classic white button-up shirt. It's my go-to top I wear with jeans and trousers to create an effortless and chic outfit." — Koszarek
3. Denim
"Jeans are a wardrobe staple I can't live without and often wear. I currently love wide-leg, cropped, and straight-leg styles. I usually wear them with slingback heels, loafers, and sneakers." — Koszarek
4. Loafers
"A classic shoe I often reach for and always feel stylish wearing is a loafer. Lately, I've loved wearing white loafers with jeans and trousers." — Koszarek
5. Black Dress
"My dress of choice is a little black dress. Dressing it up or down is easy, and I always feel stylish and chic." — Koszarek
6. Trench Coat
"A trench coat is a wardrobe staple I often wear. It's a classic coat with modern appeal that completes my outfits." — Koszarek
7. Sneakers
"Classic white and retro sneakers are wardrobe staples I often reach for to go with many outfits. Not only are they comfortable, but I also feel current and stylish wearing them." — Koszarek
