When it comes to adding pieces to my closet, I always make sure that it checks one box first. Is it Timeless? I try to find things that I know can transition well through different seasons + styles, so they can be mixed + matched with different looks. With that criteria in mind, I’ve narrowed down my three tips for creating a quick + easy timeless look…

PICK A PAIR OF SLIM FITTING JEANS…

My go to pair are these black jeans. I’ve shared these a million times, but they are 100% my favorites. The fit on them is unbelievable. They seriously feel like butter. Not only are they so comfy, but black is such a slimming color, so it looks good on every body type. So who can say no to comfort + slimming at the same time?!

FIND YOUR FAVORITE BASIC TEE…

A basic tee is the easiest way to keep your outfit clean + simple. They never go out of style so that is a major win! The variety of necklines make it easy to find one you love for your body type too. I’m already obsessed with this one I recently found. The sleeve length is just right, and I love the fit. The v neck is the perfect addition so I can highlight the necklaces I wear daily. When picking my tees,  I usually stick to neutrals. Black is my favorite of course to add to the simple and slimming, and white is my other favorite. The best part about basic tees is they are so affordable, you can always have a few to rotate!

INVEST IN A LEATHER JACKET…

I wish I would’ve realized this years ago.  So you have probably noticed that since I got my leather jacket a couple of months ago, I’ve been hooked. I wear it at least a handful of times a week and love how versatile it is. It goes with everything from my favorite joggers and tennies, to a dress + heels. So to me it is the finishing touch to any outfit to pull it all together and make you feel ready to go.

If you put these three tips to use, you will have a timeless look with hardly any effort! So I wanna know…what do you consider your signature look?
