When the opportunity presented itself to snap an outfit photo featuring the WIDEST leg jeans ever (J Brand's Kiki in Lotus) in front of the word SKINNY, I just couldn't pass it up. Let it never be said that I can't get down with irony, peeps. But I digress.
This morning, I found myself staring desperately into my closet, wondering WTF to wear. Candidly, this doesn't happen often, but on occasion, even I'm left with a dearth of style inspiration. When those days roll around, my approach is simple - I lean on the most BASIC items in my closet (hello, take a look at the gray tee, black cardigan, jeans and black booties seen above...it doesn't get much easier!) and then spice them up with a little accessory love (today some colorful statement bangles, a bedazzled safety pin necklace and my trustworthy gold pyramid stud earrings.)
Head to toe:
- MAC Russian Red Lipstick
- J. Crew Merino Wool Cardigan (no longer available, a myriad of alternate cardigans here, however)
- HUDSON Collection Tank (no longer available/gift)
- CC Skye Safety Pin Necklace (no longer available)
- J Brand Kiki Bell Bottom in Lotus (gift)
- Charles Jourdan Alda Ankle Boot
- Jessica Kagan Cushman "When I'm Good I'm Very Good But When I'm Bad I'm Better" and " You Can Agree With Me or You Can Be Wrong" Bracelets
What's your approach to sartorially-challenged days? Do tell, I can always use a little further inspiration.
