NOTE: IMAGE HEAVY!
I thought this might be fun for back to school season! I picked out 10 closet staples that I have in my 2009 fall wardrobe, and created 10 outfits by reusing the items in different ways.
I thought this might be fun for back to school season! I picked out 10 closet staples that I have in my 2009 fall wardrobe, and created 10 outfits by reusing the items in different ways.
10 Closet Staples
- Navy Blazer: Fitted or Boyfriend. Try to find something that has an interesting detail, like double lapels. I'm wearing a tailored blazer from Forever 21.
- White Graphic Tshirt: Fitted, and preferably something thin or worn in. I'm wearing a "I heart NY" cropped top that I bought in New York.
- Black Printed Leggings: Any pattern, make sure you can pull it up to different heights of your leg. I'm wearing flower print leggings from Nordstrom's B.P.
- Black Booties: Peep toes or with a shield so you can wear it any season. I'm wearing lace up, peep toe booties from Forever 21.
- Little Black Dress LBD: Body con dress that's flattering for your body type. I'm wearing a LBD by Sele from Macy's.
- Leather Jacket: Black motorcycle cut, rather than Bomber style. I'm wearing a motorcycle leather jacket by BB Dakota.
- Denim Shorts: Loose boyfriend style, that you can wear long or roll up shorter, the more holes the better. I'm wearing denim cut-offs from Hollister.
- Black Pumps: Clean lines so that they match everything. I'm wearing pumps by Enzo Angiolini. I have 5 of the same style and color.
- Long Sleeve Plaid Shirt: Mostly red, flannel or cotton is fine. I'm wearing a flannel shirt from Forever 21.
- Black Skirt: Something Pouffy! I'm wearing a pinsripe mini skirt from Rampage.

ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you sprained your ankle. Get well soon!
LOL on your friends commnet's about just cutting off the bottom of your sweater. It does make us wonder why we buy what we buy!!
Have a great Monday Patty Ann! =)
My faves are Looks 1, 2 & 4. I was wondering what those leg band is for... I checked your closet staples and it's not there. Sorry to hear that you hurt your ankle. Hope it heals soon so that you ca wear your nice shoes again.

ReplyDeletegood idea!
you look stunning in look 1!!!
ReplyDeleteyouve got some really great staples in here, the lace tights, the black pencil skirt, the black dress! they all look really great on you.
I think you should get those rectangular 80's inspired glasses, defenetly would highlight your face, and give your outfits more edge.
great blog!

I love look ten the best, thank you for comment on my blog :) you asked me what my job in fashion was, well i work as an agent for European womenswear designers, and show their collections to potential boutiques who may buy them, so its kinda like being a buyer mixed with being a personal shopper for a lot of boutiques instead of individual people.. lol hope that makes sense!

oo i don't know if i could pick a favorite outfit. i love the LBD and navy blazer. i'm looking for an i <3 ny t shirt. the forever 21 shirt i bought and wore in my last post is this: http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=top&product%5Fid=2067539121&Page=2. i hope you have good luck in finding the perfect sheer top!
ReplyDeleteLook 7 is TOTALLY the win. Seriously! <3
ReplyDeleteI hope your ankle is okay! DON'T WORRY, I'M A PHYSIOTHERAPY STUDENT... Keep it elevated when resting, and maybe use some ice on it for 20mins on/off for the first few days... then start trying to bear weight on it over a next few days. Try to keep it moving within reason! :) Graduate from flats to low heels then back to sexual 6-inchers :P over a period of time depending on how well you handle!
Btw - thank your your LOVELY comments!! :)
<3 <3 <3
Thanks for your comment! Great variation of outfits! I like the first one most - and the plain LBD of course :)
