We’ve all been there: Standing in front of our closet freaking over what to wear {naturally, at the absolute last second before we’re supposed to be somewhere}. Panic sets in and you state the 100% whole hearted claim that you have nothing to wear. This is the time when you should always rely on your closet staples.
For me, that equals a pair of good jeans, an easy white tank with a bold blazer & killer heels {and clutch!}. Sure, you may call me crazy for spending nearly $460 on a blazer but if you ask me how many black blazers I’ve purchased since I got this one nearly 4 years ago the answer is: One {and you’re looking at it}. Ask me how many times I have worn it and the answer is: Hundreds! My motto? Buy the best and you will only cry once!

Here are a few of my other favorite staples :::
I’ll be the first to admit that come summer I may or may not go a little bit overboard {pun intended} with nautical. I know that I’m obsessed with something when the husband doesn’t like it and I still choose to wear it because I love it so much. As soon as the boat anchored in Marina Del Rey, I knew it was time to bust out my favorite white jeans & set sail into my summer style! White denim is my #1 summer staple because it literally brings any and all colors to life!
I’m pretty certain the horse loved my shorts as much as I do. He let out a good “neigh”.
It’s been a busy month. To think, exactly one month ago today I was making my way to a music festival & this past weekend we spent time at the mom-in-laws ranch in Santa Ynez for a little mother’s day wine tasting action. Because we are always on the go in the summer, I like to keep my packing super light & easy which is why I instantly snatched up this shirt dress from Express. I love this dress because not only did it not wrinkle on the 2 hour drive up to the ranch, but it was easy to transition into the cool summer evening by tossing a denim jacket over it.
It’s been almost a year since I’ve been able to wear my favorite wardrobe staple and since things are starting to heat up around Los Angeles, I can finally bust out {…wait for it…} leather shorts! When 7 For All Mankind wanted to see how I like to style these leather-like shorts, the opportunities were endless!
