challenge - 10 pieces of clothing

imagine that your house is on fire...you can only save 10 pieces or afford to buy 10 pieces - what is essential for you?


I've lost some weight and I need to update my wardrobe and can't really get past, black and brown slacks..

Re: challenge - 10 pieces of clothing

it totally depends on your day to day.. Do you work full time so you need work clothes?

Are we talking about work clothes or weekend clothes?

Fun question! (not the house burning down bit though...)

2 pairs dress pants -- in black and brown
1 pair casual pants (chinos) -- in a neutral of your choosing (like sand or navy maybe)
1 pair jeans
1 pencil skirt -- in a neutral of your choosing (black or gray or navy)
2 tops/blouses to go with bottoms -- colors would be okay here
1 cashmere sweater -- in a pseudo-neutral like dark green
1 day-to-evening dress
1 event/cocktail dress

Re: challenge - 10 pieces of clothing

For me, there is only one item of clothing I would save: my favorite pair of black wide leg dress pants (wearing now). Have never been able to find another pair of dress pants that fit as well as these. Otherwise, I'd grab my shoes. I love my shoes more than my clothes.Chat Icon

thanks everyone for the responses! some great basics to have!


I work FT in a school. Some people dress casually, but I have always liked to dress a bit more professional.


now I have to decide where to go shopping.
