Wardrobe Hacks
otterhound | Apr 23 2006
I'm working on a minimalist, utilitarian wardrobe. I don't want to have to think about dressing and I don't want to help a dry cleaner with his car payments. I am lucky to be able to dress as I like, within reason. I live in a hot climate (Dallas), where we recently enjoyed some lovely 100 degree April days. My current thinking is to go to 100% khakis and plain white t-shirts. Short sleeve in summer, long sleeve in winter. Boring, yes, but totally inoffensive. I can keep the t-shirts nice by simply bleaching them and trying to keep them relatively unwrinkled. The khaki's can similarly be maintained somewhat unwrinkled and be fine. Are any of you doing wardrobe hacks? 35 Comments

Building on this to some extent -- look for foundation layers that are nicer than average. For instance, I really love the pima cotton short-sleeve, crew-neck tees from Express. The pima has a nice feel and a very smooth surface and has a nicer look than the average cotton tee from Gap, etc. So I can wear one under a suit no problem, or throw one on with jeans. When they have a 2-for sale, I stock up. » POSTED IN:
