one blouse: four ways

what i love about jcrew is the versatility of their pieces. they are made to not be worn as one outfit, but be remixed and reused multiple times. one thing you can learn from “the crew” is to be fearless. throw different colors together (like pink and red!). put on polka dots with a floral print. put neon pink over navy. do it with a smile and you’ll pull it off.

when i purchased this top i wasn’t quite sure how i would wear it. then i thought, hey with colored jeans! or ivory shorts! or blue slacks! or a bright pencil skirt! i was so happy i made the purchase because it’s a versatile piece – key to bringing new frocks into your collection.

one blouse: four ways

classic (casual) wardrobe pieces worth the investment

there are a few things every woman needs in her closet. granted, this list could go on and on and on (yes..and on). i could add in different kinds of tops, cardigans, dresses, business attire, etc. but when it comes down to it, there are certain pieces that are worth the investment and others that are additions to a base.

here are a few things that i think are essential to any casual wardrobe. they are classic, timeless, and when you find the perfect one, you hold on to it forever, take care of it, and sometimes (perhaps with a perfect white blouse and jeans?) you purchase more than one.

so here we go.

every woman needs: a trench coat that cinches the waist for a sexy line, a crisp white blouse and the perfect jeans that hug in all of the right places. a gold watch, a diamond necklace with a little of your own flare to it, and a pair of pearls will always steer you in the right direction. finish everything off with black shoes – a simple pair of black flats, a pair of flats with a little extra jazz and a mid-height pair of black pumps are essential from your casual to your work looks.
