When it comes to my wardrobe, versatility is key. As a fashion editor and a fairly social person myself, I am always on the go, attending different events, visiting showrooms, working from coffee shops, and going to my favorite restaurants. And it all requires a great look. Staples that I can style multiple ways and wear from day to night have been a game changer.
My favorite black blazer can be worn with a minidress and strappy sandals, or I can style it with jeans, a white dress shirt, and sneakers. My go-to fitted white bodysuit can be worn with trousers and heels or a micro miniskirt.
Once you find great basics, the options can be endless, and luckily for you, I've listed some of my favorite closet staples that I'll be wearing on repeat.
