You know that outfit you can throw on in a pinch for just about any occasion to make yourself look and feel great? This simple black blouse, a pair of jeans and a black shoe are without a doubt my tried and true uniform. I found this blouse on the sale rack a little over a year ago and this $13 bargain buy quickly became a favorite wardrobe staple. The piece has held up great, especially given that I wear it at least once a week.
My favorite thing about a simple black button up and jeans is that it can easily be dressed up or down with a quick change of accessories. Heels vs flats and sparkly statement jewelry vs delicate gold pieces can make a big impact on this blank canvas.
This weekend I chose to keep things simple with a basic black flat, an over sized tote and a statement earring. It was the perfect outfit to easily carry me from errands around town, to a manicure at MiniLuxe and then dinner with friends. Plus, I love how the emerald and crystal of these earrings from Chloe + Isabel sparkle and stand out against this otherwise neutral palate.
