Start with your base. It could be a simple dress or a skirt you can wear with tights. Or a pair of trousers. My go-to is always a pair of blue jeans. Light rinse denim is on trend this year, so I reached for Paige jeans that fit like a dream and feel like butter!
Comfortable but stylish shoes. Pick a neutral that will pair with everything. Nude shoes also elongate your leg.
The not so secret secret about Tweed jackets is that they come in an assortment of beautiful and bright colors---often multi-colors.
And that's why they pair so perfectly with graphic tees---they easily highlight the graphics.
Add a sophisticated silk scarf. There is nothing more elegant than a classic silk scarf that stands the test of time.
Chic sunglasses not only are a practical choice as they protect your eyes against harmful UV rays but they also look chic. Find a shape you’re comfortable with and stick to that. Or you can keep experimenting with new styles. I always add one or two new pairs to my collection each year.
But a signature sunglasses style says something about your personality. And a boring outfit suddenly becomes more you!
A leather handbag. I’m a big fan of faux leather but when it comes to handbags you need to have the real deal. A real leather handbag says I Got This! A top handle handbag is ladylike but for an everyday look I love a handbag with a longer strap.
