Personally, I don't want clothes that can be worn "anywhere." That can be "dress up / dress down."
I keep separate closets for "home clothes" and "out" clothes and "out" clothes have several sub-categories.
And "never the twain shall meet."

Okay, but most women want more versatility in their wardrobes, not needing many "dressy" clothes. Informal, casual lifestyles.

Went through my closet again this morning -- minimalizing and trying to go 3 and 4 seasons with my wardrobe, which includes skillfully using layers. I read where we consistently wear 20% of our wardrobe - our favorites. I've been paying attention. I believe it.

On a cost per wearing basis, the most expensive clothes I've ever paid for have been those I bought for a special occasion - most of which I wore once! By the time another occasion rolled around, the season was different, my shape was different, etc. For whatever reason, I persuaded myself to buy new again.
Now, although I have my limits in both directions, almost everything I buy I want to be versatile. Frequently I find that when I'm disagreeing with a host or vendor who is saying dress it up or dress it down, I probably don't want the item for either purpose, but when that process does work - it's a great use of my wardrobe dollars.

Your money, your wardrobe. You get to do it your way.

I remember well when you had separate wardrobes but times have changed and I can't think of a single place that has a dress code! Remember when restaurants used to keep sport jackets in case you didn't wear one?!
I guess my point is that it's a lot less practical than it used to be to have two wardrobes. Sure I still have occasional pieces but I don't have many occasions to wear them!

Dressing something up or down does not really entail loungewear or wear around the house clothing. It is about versatility, especially for a more expensively item. I love a dressy, silk cami that I can wear with jeans under a cardigan, under a suit jacket for work or with a tuxedo for after 5.
