Friends - I love asking my sweet community questions because you inspire this content all the time. I then also feel good knowing I am putting things out there that there is a need/desire for. Someone wrote to me asking for the key items to build your wardrobe basics with and I love this question because it is making me put my own closet to the test. In thinking about it this morning, I decided to go with the items that are a) the most worn b) my true outfit saviors (the days where I can’t get dressed and c) add the spice and personality that make it feel like an outfit, not just clothing.
GREAT JEANS
So let’s get going. I’m going to start with jeans. Here is the truth - my most worn pair of jeans are not blue or black, but grey. These jeans are the ones that save my butt when I’m in a pinch and are the best non-jean looking jeans you can ask for. I dress them up with heels or dress them down with sneakers. Here I wore them with my beloved mary janes (similar here on sale). I need to throw in my 2nd most worn pair of jeans because they quickly made a few outfits look cooler and are a great price. My exact wash is sold out, but here is almost identical.
