my closet is infinitely more resistant to the trends than my wife's. so no matter what the year, there are certain items that I won't give up. I firmly believe that they are must-haves in every closet and a lifesaver when you don't know what to wear. plus, they're versatile enough to be worn either in informal work situations (which is most of the time) or for a weekend program.
DENIM
an absolute staple in any wardrobe, regardless of season, age or personal style. since they became popular in the 1950s, it's almost impossible to live without them. I've tried different brands and styles, but the levis 501 is still my favorite and the one I always go back to. It's a timeless style, just like all the pieces I've chosen.

T-SHIRT
maybe this one seems too obvious - like jeans, who doesn't have a t-shirt? true, but the choice of a good white t-shirt makes all the difference. despite its absolute simplicity, it has something hard to explain that sets it apart from other colors.

LINEN SHIRT
in this department, I go for another essential, the linen shirt. most men (and women, of course) probably have shirts in their wardrobe. men's wardrobes depend on them, whether to complete a formal suit or a normal working day. personally, I found it indispensable to have a white linen shirt, it is a safe and always fashionable choice, whether to wear to the beach or out to dinner.

LOAFERS
maybe I wasn't always a fan of the penny loafer, but honestly, I now understand why this timeless shape is so popular. resistant to trends, a good penny loafer is a safe investment that adds sophistication to your wardrobe.
