Sweater: Forever 21 / Plaid Shirt: Joie (on sale!) / Jeans: Current Elliott / Booties: Joie / Sunglasses: Oliver Peoples
Every girl has to have a few basics in their closet that are their specific go-to’s… those pieces that never fail, always remain comfortable to run around in, and essentially match with anything. There are also those days where you just can’t figure out what to put on but you still want to remain put together… well, the answer always is – stick with a proven basic. In my case, that would be my Current Elliott Jodie Shredded Skinny Jeans and my Joie Jodi Booties. I can’t express how comfortable these jeans are… they are lightweight, shredded, skinny, fit like a glove, and they have just the right amount of rips where it is not overkill. My Joie booties remain a staple in my closet… I own three different variations of them and they work with every single outfit. I can pair these with leggings, tights, dresses, skirts, jeans, track pants, you name it. Two of my other favorite styles can be seen here and here.
When it comes to ‘basic’ everyone has their own variation of what it means. In my case, I have an obsession with layering so I consider it to be my idea of basic. I have done it so many ways I can’t even tell you… whether it be a silk blouse under a sweater, a plaid flannel with a chunky knit, a cropped sweater over a mini dress… I can’t get enough of the trend. It only makes sense to resort to it whenever I am running out the door and I want to look fashionable but comfortable. With this particular outfit I chose to keep it neutral, classic, and the epitome of what you want to wear on a crisp fall day.
I hope you all have an amazing weekend. Happy Friday! x
