This time of year I always re-evaluate my wardrobe in preparation for a holiday wishlist. Trends come and go but there are a few classic pieces that never go out of style and are fashionable and timeless season after season, year after year. The couple pieces I own on this list are ones I find myself wearing day after day, so it’s worth it to invest in one you really love!
Here are 5 classic pieces I think you should consider adding to your wishlist (if you don’t own them already!):
No. 1 Wide Leg Trouser Jeans
Although skinny has been the jean style of choice for a few years now, the wide leg trouser jean will always be a no-brainer flattering choice. If they’re feeling too 70s for you right now, add some more current pieces like cheetah oxfords and a wool panama hat.

No. 2 Leather Riding Boots
It seems as though I’ve been on the lookout for the perfect pair of leather riding boots for more than a decade now. They’ll always be a timeless choice and ready for any weather. You can wear them with skinny jeans or your favorite flowy skirt.

No. 3 Trench Coat
The trench coat came on strong as a menswear inspired trend a few years back, and now I can’t imagine my wardrobe without one! It’s for sure the most versatile coat I own and easy to dress up or down.

No. 4 A Little Black Dress (the kind your grandma wouldn’t wear)
We’ve all been told how crucial a good fitting little black dress is for our wardrobe. It’s timeless, flattering and bumps your fanciness up a notch for a date night. I love this one Emily picked out-the lace makes it more current and less ho-hum, but still chic and classic for a fancy event.

No. 5 Wool Panama Hat
You may not own one yet, but you should add it to your list asap. A wool panama hat is so stylish and chic, and ageless too. You see 15 yr olds and 80 yr olds wearing them and they all look fabulous! Throw that panama hat on with jeans and t-shirt and you’re ready to paint the town red.
