Investing in a quality wardrobe can make getting ready in the morning feel  like a breeze. When building a wardrobe around timeless pieces, it’s necessary to put a lot of thought before investing in a high quality piece and opt for items that don’t chase seasons. Timeless clothes hold their place in your wardrobe year after year, quietly defining your style as classy and elegant. Here are five investment pieces that House of Yamina recommends every woman should consider,  not because they’re trendy, but because they’ll never not be relevant.

A clean-cut blazer is the cornerstone of a pioneer’s wardrobe. It can upgrade a casual outfit, add warmth to a dress, and make a look feel composed. In a room full of black blazers, think of a blazer in cream color, with a slight shine and fine gold accents, a textured tweed blazer. A tailored gilet or a buttoned waistcoat can be a fun alternative to a blazer or a base to match with one. The point is, classic pieces with bold twists make you really stand out. It’s also crucial to look for clean tailoring, premium fabric, and a flattering silhouette. 

The women’s wear space was never the same ever since the button shirt was introduced to it. Like a latte with a good espresso base, a white button blouse can make or break the look. The secret is that it is structured enough for the office yet relaxed enough for aperitivo, and effortlessly elegant when styled right. When choosing, do check the details, good-quality buttons, clean finishing, and a fabric that is pleasant to the touch. An asymmetrical blouse is an eye-catching touch in an otherwise simple outfit. Layer your favourite button shirt under a sharp blazer, or tucked into a mini-skirt, it always delivers.

A great pair of trousers can elevate even the simplest outfit. Think high-waisted, wide-legged or bootcut pants, in a high-quality fabric that falls beautifully to the floor. They're a wardrobe main character  grounded, functional and versatile. Pair them with a designer cotton t-shirt and flats for daytime looks, or with high-heels and a sleek dress by night. Our team says if diamonds are a girl's best friend, then trousers are a girl’s personal assistant.

Every woman needs that dress, the type of dress that not fits but flatters, and can be worn to almost any occasion. A satin black or soft sail grey can work from late afternoon to midnight.  The key is in the quality and the way the fabric drapes over the figure. Think of it as a blank canvas: pair it with eye-catching jewelry one day, and a classic blazer the next. That dress should be the piece you reach for when you want to feel your best.

A bold blouse can save the day when you don’t feel like dressing up. Pick a blouse that takes one minute to style but looks like you gave it a lot of thought. An off-shoulder top with ruffles or a chiffon blouse work best with relaxed jeans or tailored shorts. When the weather doesn’t require an outer-layer, make your top the outfit star, The easiest way to make it even more polished is to reach for bold earrings and rock red-lip.  As long as it that aligns with your aesthetic, you can rely on your blouse to make your day better.
