8 Foolproof Closet Staples I Invested in This Season
I bought this cocktail dress for an event we had back in the fall and I received so many compliments on it. I love the simple silhouette with the twist front detail and the tea length style. It’s such a versatile, timeless and flattering piece, something that I will reach for time and again.
I picked up this blazer on sale a few months ago after eyeing it for quite some time. I love the tailored fit and the longer length. I paired it with a black bodysuit turtleneck and these cropped pants for an event we had last month. But, I plan on styling it with jeans and a tee shirt bodysuit for a more casual look.
I recently bought this jumpsuit for an event we had where the dress code was iffy. I didn’t want to arrive overdressed or underdressed so I felt this piece was the perfect compromise. I love the chiffon bodice and the mock neck which lend this jumpsuit an unexpected twist. The pants do run long so I had to have them hemmed even with 4 inch heels. For reference, I’m 5″4.
I had been shopping for the perfect camel wrap coat for years so when I spotted this one on sale, I didn’t hesitate to pounce on it. It’s the ideal combination of cozy and chic. I automatically reach for this piece whenever I’m heading into the city. Most recently, I paired it with a puffed sleeve turtleneck, cropped pants, and stiletto booties for an afternoon at the ballet.
This was another piece I was eyeing for quite some time before I finally splurged. This vest is a great investment because it’s equally functional and chic. The wax side can be worn casually with a sweater and jeans while the faux fur side can easily elevate any look for a more polished style.
Speaking of vests, I wear this piece the most insofar as outerwear is concerned. I drive a lot so I prefer lighter layers and no constrictive sleeves. I also love the longer length of this vest to keep me warm when I run errands. I opted for the gold version but it comes in black as well.
This puff sleeve tee is the perfect closet staple. It’s super flattering, soft, and versatile. Plus, it’s seasonless so it can be worn a plethora of ways whether paired with shorts, jeans, or trousers or layered under a cardigan or blazer. I love this top so much I ordered it in the striped version too.
These jeans are by far my favorite pair. They are the perfect length, wash and fit. Plus, they have a bit of stretch so they’re very comfortable. I wear them absolutely everywhere. They’re well worth the investment.
