I have been overweight my entire life. Because of a diabetes scare a couple of years ago, I lost 50 pounds, primarily through running and modifying my diet. My self-esteem has greatly improved because I now have more energy to keep up with my kids and can go for longer walks with my husband and just overall have more energy for life. My doctor says that my cholesterol is down and my blood pressure is great. I have kept the weight off for over a year now, so I feel pretty confident that by taking the pounds off slowly, I will keep them off.

Annie, I have always loved fashion. Even at my heaviest, I took great pride in my wardrobe and always bought a few expensive staple pieces that I hoped to keep forever. The problem now is that none of my expensive clothes fit. It was really over a 10-year period that I built up a beautiful wardrobe.

staple piecesはどのような意味でしょうか？あと、It was really over a 10-year period that I built up a beautiful wardrobe.の和訳も教えてください。よろしくお願いします

ここで "staple pieces" とは、ドレスアップする上でコーディネートに欠かせない、流行などに左右されることのない、一度買ったら一生使えるような衣類やアクセサリーのことを指しています。
