Full disclaimer: I probably have quadruple what I am listing, because I love variety too much to cut back to something like 30 pieces.

And this is after cutting back my wardrobe by 50%.

So just imagine what I had in there before that I didn’t use, want or need!

Still if I had to only bring 30 pieces, this is what I’d imagine would be the barest of bare minimum for me.

The List of 30 items of my Bare Minimum Wardrobe

• 2 pairs of Trouser Jeans or work pants
• 2 pairs of jeans
• 1 Casual Blazer
• 3 Work Sweaters
• 1 Ultimate Soft Cushy Sweater
• 2 Camisoles/Tank Tops
• 3 Work Tops
• 2 T-shirts
• 2 sets of Sweatpants or Leggings  (one of these pairs are compression stockings from RejuvaHealth.com) — only to wear at home!
• 1 suit with a matching skirt and pant option
• 2 Skirts
• 2 Casual-ish Dresses
• 1 Formal Dress
• 1 Light Jacket
• 1 Winter Jacket
• 1 Leather Jacket
• 1 “Other” Option — Anything I choose

Still, if I was an ultimate, hardcore minimalist, it might look something like this:

THE 15-ITEM SUPER LIGHT & MINIMALIST WARDROBE

(This is a goal that I will never ever reach unless forced into, kicking and screaming the whole way)

• 2 pairs of pants
• 1 pair of jeans
• 1 sweater — can double as a light jacket
• 2 work tops
• 2 casual t-shirts (one needed for laundry day)
• 1 skirt
• 1 dress
• 1 formal dress
• 2 pairs of sweatpants or leggings (one needed for laundry day)
• 1 winter jacket

No suit, or leather jacket included. I don’t wear suits to work… so I’m safe there.
