style guide // 10 key pieces


1 // The White Blazer 
Because white is the new black. I got these from LOFT and Express (similar here and here).


2 // Statement Earrings
I admit. When I like something, I tend to buy it in every color. Especially the Aztec earrings from Bauble Bar! Add these baubles to amp up a solid colored sweater or to remix your favorite vintage tee.


3 // Boyfriend Jeans
No matter what your own boyfriend may say, these (oh so comfy) jeans are here to stay. Try a pair from Zara or LOFT dressed up with your favorite heels or slip on sneakers.


4 // Black Pumps
If I were to die and be reincarnated as a shoe, I would want to come back as a pair of classic black stiletto heels. Preferably a pair of Christian Louboutin. Just saying. But for now, I'll just live in these J.Crew heels.


5 // Structured Bag
As women, we need a bag big enough to carry everything to arm ourselves for the week (i.e. cell phone charger, Advil, makeup, wallet, chocolate, gym clothes, flats), but disguised in a sophisticated shape to make it seem like we have it all together (which we do). This is where the structured bag saves the day. Try this one from Zara or if you're in the market for some lux labels, you'll find some really gorgeous ones at A Second Chance Resale or Eva Gentry Consignment.


6 // Leopard Print Blouse
Since my last outfit recap, I had the amazing opportunity to collaborate with Fly & Fierce, an online  boutique who curates the most wonderful vintage and thrifted pieces. I was instantly drawn to the this blouse. Leopard print is somewhat of a neutral for me and feel that every woman should own at least one of these printed blouses to pair with anything and everything! Stay fly & fierce, ladies.


7 // Motorcycle Jacket
Wanna feel like a badass? Throw on a motorcycle jacket over whatever you're wearing and get out the door. Black, red, white (so good right now), pastel, blue... get one. Now.


8 // Midi Skirt
Oh girl, you must give the midi skirt some love. This piece can flatter women of every shape and size. Pair it with a crop top or even a menswear button down. Just be sure the top of the skirt hits you above the belly button at the slimmest part of your waist for the most flattering fit.


9 // Printed Dress
From florals to geometric shapes to brushstrokes to window pane patterns, these printed dresses will escalate your entire look. I layered them with cardigans and coats during the winter, but am so ready to flaunt them freely for the spring/summer! DVF and LOFT have perfect work week chic dresses, then try Forever 21 and Zara for the weekend warrior in you.


10 // Oversized Sunglasses
Last, but definitely not the least. I love how this staple accessory can glam up any outfit. Wear them coming out of the gym or even up in the club. They don't call them stunna shades for nothing. My favorites lately have been anything Karen Walker or Celine. Other brands I am currently lusting over are Illesteva and Westward // Leaning.



And there you have it! My 10 key pieces that I will forever keep in heavy rotation. Thank you so so much for following me on my fashion journey and showing me all your love and support. It's been a dream of mine to start a blog like this to share ideas and inspiration, so keep those comments coming! Cheers to another 100 posts!
