Back to Basics is where I belong, friends.
I think what hits home the most with me when I am shopping for my closet all the time is whether or not I can buy something, wear it now and later, and know that the quality matches the cost.
While I wish I could invest in all areas of my wardrobe (accessories included, of course…), I have to pick and choose what means the most when it comes to paying top dollar and where I can afford to spend a little less for things that might not get used quite as much.
Today’s look brings together so many of my favorites and that’s why I titled it “Back to Basics”. We have the investment shoes (which I bought a few years ago), a cashmere cardigan (soft and so versatile in both color and style), a simple black wool skirt, and the ever-reliable striped tee. This red bag has been one of my favorite investment purchases this year, too, because while it’s so great right now in the fall and especially in the winter, I know for sure I can carry it all year long. It’s a great little size and so easy to wear.
I would love about 15 variations of this look right here to wear all month long. Skirts, Boots, and Cardigans are simply what defines me.
What is your favorite outfit to wear in the fall? Where do you like to splurge and invest?
Have a great Thursday, everyone! TGI….T!

Do you remember this post from a few weeks back? Well, this perfect trench is completely restocked and worth every.single.penny.
Last, but certainly not least, at 50% off (use code “OURTREAT”, this leopard print coat that I’ve been eyeing for a week or so is coming home with me. Don’t you think it’s going to look great over my black leather leggings and a black sweater? It’s such a fun statement piece and at that price, it’s worth it to add something a little bit different into your closet. When you’re checking it out at Loft, be sure to zoom in on the coat because what I love most is that it’s a combination of grey, tan, and black in the leopard print. Yes, please…
