Staples, Part Two.

Yesterday we talked about important jewelry staples, so it's fitting that today we're going to talk about my favorite/most important clothing articles in my closet. 

5.  Brown Braided Skinny Belt-
I got this last winter from the Gap, and it was one of the best purchases I've made in the last six months. I wear it every time I put on a pair of mid waisted denim shorts, or my high waisted khaki shorts. I love how the braiding detail adds great texture!

4. Black Lace Scarf-
I got this while out shopping one day with one of my best girlfriends, Julie. It adds class to almost anything you could think to pair it with. And because it's lacy you can wear it in the summer when it's hot or in the "cold" Texas winters. Also, it does look really good with my trench coat.

3. Mid Waisted denim shorts- 
Truth: I liked these so much I went out and bought a second pair.
There from Urban Outfitters and I love them. The waist is higher than normal, and they look really good with a fun colored polo tucked in, and #5, the brown braided skinny belt! 
Side Note: I'm really sad that I'll have to be putting them away in a few months.

2. White Eyelet Skirt- 
This really is my best online shopping score, I got it for $15 from the J. Crew Factory outlet last October. It pairs well with a fitted polo or t-shirt for a sophisticated and fun yet comfy look. I'm planning on wearing it this weekend before Labor Day. 

1. Black Cardigan-
Mom actually got this for me at the J. Crew outlet while shopping with her friend. I wear it all the time. Like, at least once a week. The buttons are cut like diamonds and there black and shiny and it really makes me happy. Remember kids, CPTS. (If you don't remember what that means don't worry, we're having a refresher course tomorrow.)

What are your staple pieces? How often do you wear them?

Keep it classy,
