- White Button Down Shirt Timeless. Effortless. Beyond versatile! Choose one that has a unique touch to it, whether it be embroidery or textured fabric.
- Black Jeans The most worn out pair of pants in my closet! When I wake up with no inspiration for a stylish outfit, I throw these bad boys on. Slimming and sexy, pair it with a silky cami or an oversized button down for a relaxed look. They are the perfect canvas for any outfit!
- Destroyed Denim Can't get enough of these! Instant cool factor. Get them a little baggy and throw on a plain tank, lots of jewelry, and some killer wedges.
- Maxi Skirt For the boho-babe in all of us. You can't go wrong with a crop top and maxi! Classic black is a great option, I got mine with a slit in the side to add some sex appeal.
- Printed Blouse Get a loud, fun print to bring the pop to an otherwise boring outfit. Throw on a tailored blazer for a polished look, or pair with a bold colored skirt to steal everyone's attention.
- Plaid Shirt 90's grunge-tastic.This shirt always makes a come back! Wear it solo, layer over a vintage tee, tie it around your waist, or button it up halfway and wear it as a skirt. LOVE IT
- White t-shirt Confession time! I am a TOTAL white shirt hoarder. But everyone should be, the white tee is a classic for a reason! You have that beautiful printed skirt that has all kinds of color and intricacy in it. What better match is there than a white tee? And who is your fave pair of jeans best friend? I could dedicate an entire post to ways to wear this piece. I probably will...hmm....
- Slinky Cami Having a silky sexy top is totally necessary. Get one in a light and dark color. Perfect for date night with the boo, or make it casual by pairing it with some denim cutoffs.
- Fitted Black Skirt The working woman's staple. Actually, any woman! I love my black skirt so much, it's been with me everywhere from night clubs to job interviews.
- Black Leggings Some days, I just don't want to wear pants. Those are usually also the days it is way too cold to wear a skirt. Leggings come to the rescue! Make sure you get a thick pair, I've wasted money on so many see through ones! Leggings are super versatile too. Try an oversized sweater with heeled ankle boots, or a flowy blouse and strappy sandals. Endless possibilities.
- Blazer We are working women, after all! Wear it to work or throw it over jeans and a tee for an undone-polished look.
- LBD My love for the little black dress is undying. I have a couple, one is body con and the other is fitted at the top with a flared short bottom. When selecting an LBD, pick one you can picture styling in various ways. Both of mine could easily be dressed down with a braided belt around the waist, jean jacket, and floppy hat.
- LWD Another essential dress is the little white dress. From Coachella to cocktail parties, you just can't go wrong. I love wearing my LWD with bright colored ankle strap heels and gold jewelry.
- Colored Tanks Another piece I have a million of! You can get these for a pretty cheap price at any store. Layer button up shirts over them, or use them under sheer blouses. Possibilities are endless!
- Leather Moto Jacket They go with anything! Instantly toughen up any outfit. Jeans and a tee, typical. Add a leather jacket, fabulous!
- Go-to Party Dress When I think party dress, I think fitted top and voluminous bottom in a bright color. Everyone needs one, they will come in handy more times than you'd think!
- Utility Jacket Tomboy chic. I like to wear mine with a mini skirt and coordinating crop top.
- Worn-in denim shorts Like fine wine, they get cooler with age. I have waaaay too many pairs of denim shorts. You can literally wear them with anything. A blazer, heels, and conservative cut blouse make them a great way to spice up business wear.
- Graphic Tee Band logo, cheeky saying , crazy print, whatever! I love my graphic tees juxtaposed tucked into a business-y skirt.
- Printed Pants / Shorts Probably my favorite for when I am super lazy. They do all the work for you! Let the pants / shorts be the center of your outfit, and style the rest simply with a neutral top and layer some understated jewelry.
- Black Heels Obviously I can't live without my black heels! Make those legs look long and sexy in any outfit you wear!
- Nude Heels For the days your outfit needs a bit more polish, but the shoes gotta stay understated. A nude heel is a great investment because they stay low-key but make you look so put together!
- Cute Sandals Time to let the flip-flops go ladies! Some strappy sandals will go far with your wardrobe!
- Sneakers I'm not talking about the clunky running shoes your parents made you wear to school as a kid. Look for some fun ones! Platform, wedge, printed, embellished!
- Black or Tan boots Here is one I would definitely say put some money into. A good pair of leather boots will last you forever, and you will never get tired of them.
- Fun Flats Obvi you can't wear heels every day! So having a pair of comfy and super cute flats is completely necessary!
- Statement Necklace Spice up any outfit with one of these babies! Wear it with a white tee, coated skinnies, and bold heels for an effortlessly chic look.
- Oversized Sunnies Sweats and a tank are a yawn. Throw your hair in a bun, exchange the sweats for some tailored track paints, add heels, throw on the sunnies and BOOM. Instant off-duty celeb.
- Structured Bag Destroyed skinnies and a tee look so much more put together with a structured bag.
- Smaller Bag for Events Get one that has some great detailing, like a pattern, embellishment, or a pop of color! Your LBDs will thank you!

30 College Girl Essentials!
Hey everyone! With school starting, I've been thinking about what to wear on campus. I love to dress stylishly, but comfort is definitely a top priority. Walking across campus all day, it's obviously not practical to wear heels (which I would love to do). And when you're waking up early you don't have time to put a lot of thought into an outfit. I put together a list of clothes that will give you a great amount of possibilities during the school week. Versatility for these pieces is key, because us college girls need as much bang for our buck as possible!
