Five Essential Pieces For A Minimalist Urban Closet

When living in a big city, there is no better look than the urban look. Urban clothing choices and pieces evolve depending on the era. If you are on a budget or if you can only fit a few more pieces in your minimalist closet, there are five essential pieces you can choose in order to make a decent urban closet. 

Comfortable dark wash jeans

Dark wash jeans can be dressed up in a pinched or dressed down completely. Dark wash straight or skinny leg jeans can be paired with a button-up shirt, nice shoes, and a blazer for a business casual look. Jeans can also be paired with your favorite long T-shirt and sneakers for a comfortable weekend outfit. Keeping a pair or two of dark wash denim jeans is the perfect start to an urban upscale closet. 

A moto jacket

Moto jackets are like the letterman's jackets for urban adults. Moto jacket is short for motorcycle jacket and many new age moto jackets zip sideways rather than vertically. You can put these over a sundress in order to create a grunge look or wear it with a white shirt and leggings to make sexy and cool attire. Both cotton or leather moto jackets work for a nice look as long as they are solid in color. 

Jogger pants

Jogger pants are dressed up sweatpants. While sweatpants look like gym attire joggers look like street and even nightclub attire. These can be paired with a cropped shirt for women or they can go with a solid t-shirt, jacket, and hat for men. Get joggers with a distinct look, such as a bright colored zipper or big, loose pockets. 

Black boots

No matter if your style is more grunge or more glam, a pair of black boots exists for everyone. If you prefer a pair of platform matte boots, shiny steel toe black boots, or stiletto-heeled ankle boots there is a plethora for you to choose from. A nice boot can kick any short-and-T-shirt outfit into a high fashion ensemble. 

Metallic jacket

If you are trying to stand out or if you just want to give your outfit a bit of sparkle, you can add a metallic jacket to any outfit. These come in both crop top designs and in long, thigh length options. Metallic colored jackets stand out and are comfortable in cool and winter weather. Liven up an otherwise monotone wardrobe by throwing on a fashionable, yet comfortable tablet.
