the basics

It’s the basics in your wardrobe that are the most important. They are your ‘go to’ pieces to make an outfit work.

what are the basics?

Simple, clean lines, current but not too trendy, and in basic colors.

• A black blazer
• a white tank
• a black tank
• a white tee
• a white shirt
• black pants
• khaki pants
• a black skirt
• a black pump
• a nude sandal
• a black handbag

These are just a few of the basics you should have in you wardrobe at all times. Every year you should check the pieces to make sure the design is current.

the process

• Featured item (the skirt) – I centered all other items around
• The top – I kept the blazer and tank basic, because I didn’t want to over power the skirt.
• The shoes – I went with gray booties, because I felt black was too predictable.
• The jewelry – A black and silver necklace tied the whole thing together. Earrings were simple studs.
