Today's outfit is made up of a few of those classic pieces that will never go out of style whether you are 15 or 55. Can you guess what they are?? Read on to find out my favorite off duty pieces.
White Tee Shirt. I actually have multiple white tee styles & would suggest that you should do. Long sleeves, tanks, v necks, even turtlenecks in a crisp white shade are a great layering pieces to start any look with. I stock up on my white t shirts from Forever 21 because they are SO affordable & have a huge range of classic styles.
Dark Wash Jeans. I have always been a fan of a distressed look, especially on the weekend. I love that worn in feel of a ripped jean, but as with white tee shirts, there is a huge range of jean style to choose from. Skinny, straight, flare, distressed...in a dark wash, each of these styles is flattering, & again, a great basic to have in your closet.
White Sneakers. While I love statement shoes & sneakers that are bright, fun colors or patterns, I can honestly say, there is no pair that I wear as often as my white Stan Smith sneakers. A classic white pair matches everything & while you need to be cautious to keep them clean, it is totally worth it!
Leather Jacket. If you haven't invested in a great fitting black leather jacket yet, what are you waiting for? This piece can be worn during all 4 seasons & instantly makes an outfit look edgy & cool! Try it over a girly dress, or with casual basics like jeans & a tee ;)

I adore leather and have a couple of leather jackets. My fave is a my biker inspired one in black from Rome. Absolutely love it. Love how you styled yours!
ReplyDeleteWow - sounds awesome! I don't blame you that it's your fav!
DeleteI always love the 'attitude' a leather jacket can give an outfit-- love it with the distressed jeans and white shoes. Great outfit!
ReplyDeleteMe too! So edgy - even with a dress!
DeleteYou're so right that outfits made of those classic wardrobe staples are the best. Both cool and comfortable!

I need a couple of plain white tees. Thanks for your tips about looking at F21. Love the White Stans Adidas pair. This casual look is flawless with the sporty vibe.
ReplyDeleteForever 21 has the best basics! I always pick up a few tees or pairs of leggings while I'm shopping there.
