When it comes to my wardrobe, versatility is key. As a fashion editor and a fairly social person myself, I am always on the go, attending different events, visiting showrooms, working from coffee shops, and going to my favorite restaurants. And it all requires a great look. Staples that I can style multiple ways and wear from day to night have been a game changer.
My favorite black blazer can be worn with a minidress and strappy sandals, or I can style it with jeans, a white dress shirt, and sneakers. My go-to fitted white bodysuit can be worn with trousers and heels or a micro miniskirt.
Once you find great basics, the options can be endless, and luckily for you, I've listed some of my favorite closet staples that I'll be wearing on repeat.
This new It-girl top is only $19.
I have this blazer in two colors, and it has become my go-to. I love it.
A great pair of black trousers is a must.
