some of your staple peices
You can always safely assume I will have a black button down on with a black vest. Simple, but my staple. My friends say I always look like I am going to a funeral.  Anyone else have any staples in their wardrobe that make your look you?

My jeans that are falling apart to the point where I feel indecent if I don't wear opaque leggings underneath

Haha. xD
I hope you are not serious.
Um...my staple is probably my black pinstripe jeans or my black frock coat which I wear almost every day because it's my only coat. And there's a bunch of other stuff I really do wear every day like belts, gloves / arm warmers etc.

Mmm...
I've got a few. It depends on the season. Actually, scratch that. I look to damned different all the damned time for anyone to really expect me to have staples.

My vest replaced my mohawk as my item of recognition. Too bad it's too cold to be sleeveless now.

Eight T-shirts, two pairs of jeans, one pair of pants and a whole lotta underwear.

Probably my dresses and skirts, I only own two pairs of pants. I used to have this necklace I wore all the time too, but the chain broke, I still got the pendant, just need to buy a replacement chain sometime soon. I really can't be trusted with jewelry  I've had that pendant since I was 14 and I've gone through four chains.

I almost always wear the same pair of boots. Light ones, kind of like a cross between combat boots and trainers. They're falling apart after 2 years of almost constant wearing though.

I suppose another staple of my wardrobe is the excessive amounts of tank tops that I have, I like my clothing to either have no sleeve or a long sleeve, no clue why

My silver bat and my Rotary mechanism watch. My arse-length red hair.
Possibly also the year-old boots that are now threatening to fall apart and the bag with the cogs on.
No single shirt or jeans or skirt or top or corset.

Yea my hair is about halfway down my back, and it kinda looks like I just wandered out of the woods. I guess it's pretty distinctive.

The only things I wear often enough to classify as 'staples' are my grey spiderweb steel-toed Underground boots and silver Bedouin necklace that I bought in Egypt. When I'm going out I always try to have a few bone items on me as well.
I suppose my dreadlocks are a bit of a staple now too. And they'll be way more, uh... unregrettable once my extensions are in, along with some more bones and feathers.

I used to have a necklace that used to be the chain of my dog tags with a cross stating Jesus is Lord, a Pentacle, and an Ankh.

Oh oh... I forgot zebra print! Doesn't matter what it's on, I've got tops, tights, bags, belts, sunglasses, bits painted on leather jackets, and soon to be jeans.
To a slightly lesser extent leopard print too.
And my ripped fishnets.

Actually talking of animal print, I've started wearing a cow print scarf a lot lately.

You will rarely see me without at least one of these: my bird skull, my ankh necklace, or boots.
It used to be a black leather choker that I wore ALWAYS, but it's falling apart.

In the winter I wear a blue velvet long coat a lot, doc martins, black jeans or trousers.
In the summer I like to wear a skirt every day (hate pants) and ballet shoes.

A hoody. I am almost never without one, and this summer had a couple near-heat stroke experiences. Right now I have a grey Aeropostale one that the church gave me, with a nice big hood. I hate when you get a hoody with a skinny hood and you end up looking like a cancer patient.
