Wardrobe Basics

When it comes to getting out of the house quickly, whether off-duty style or a casual day at the office,  the key is preparation.   The essential secret to looking effortlessly chic in no time, is to have your wardrobe basics in working order.

Here are the four wardrobe staples that will swiftly get you there.

Suzi Chin Wrap Dress Splendid Button Up Dress

The Daytime Dress – The right dress is an excellent way to change up your casual style and alternate from your go-to jeans and a tee look. Choose a casual chic jersey dress like this Suzi Chin Tie Waist Jersey Blouson Dress, $138.00, or opt out for this versatile Splendid Button Up Dress, $105.00, a great update to the classic shirt-dress.

Lanston Long Sleeve Scoop Tunic LNA Short Sleeve Pocket Tee

The Perfect Tee -  A fresh spin on a classic tee is a uniquely cut neckline, a luxuriously draping fabric, or a tasteful detailing.

Choose a lower cut scoop neckline like this Lanston Long Sleeve Scoop Tunic,$64.00, or pick something that has a little detail to it, like this LNA Short Sleeve Pocket Tee,$68.00.

Citizens Of Humanity Hutton Wide Leg Jeans

The Perfect Pair of Jeans - The ultimate wardrobe basic, a perfect pair of denim is as fundamental to a woman’s wardrobe as toothbrush is to a morning routine.

These 7 For All Mankind ‘Roxanne’ Skinny Stretch Jeans,$155.00, are perfect for elongating your legs and versatile enough to wear everyday. Alternatively, if you are in love with the spring’s hottest trend – the wide leg jeans, go with these Citizens Of Humanity Hutton Wide Leg Jeans, $189.00. They add a little flare at the bottom and have a trouser feel, making the denim appear dressier.

The Classic Cardigan -  a timeless classic, the cardigan is a must have whether you wear it to keep warm on a breezy day or to look classy in an office.

Take the boring out of basic by opting for luxurious fabrics like this ultra-soft Splendid Long Slouchy Cardigan, $68.00 or this cashmere dream rsvp Abatha cashmere cardigan, $77.40.

Love the shirt dress, for those like myself who haven’t worn a dress in a very long time, this would be great with jeans too.
