Classic Clothing: How to Build a Timeless Wardrobe | Guide to Life

If you're going to really invest in clothing, you'll get the most value from pieces that are guaranteed to last a long time – both quality-wise and in terms of fashion. Because they were designed in response to basic needs, these basics have endured through time and will stay in style for years to come. They're both classic and timeless, so it makes sense to spend more to get better versions of each. In this video, Gerald Ortiz talks through what makes these five different staples classic, and suggests some examples that are worth an investment.

There is a simple formula to this. Step 1- be fit and athletic. Step 2- apply not cheap and not flashy or overly trendy clothes to your fit frame. Enjoy!

I enjoyed this video. I am looking for aimless pieces worth investing in but also feel like this may not be my style. I like videos on tik Tok with "timeless" not trendy or dated pieces, but I also like the old money/ quiet luxury/ now im hearing of American classic prep. I want to find a guide so I can know what to buy when shopping to achieve the look I want to show
