Wrap Top
My obsession with white wrap tops is growing increasingly strong and I’m growing more inclined to say it’s more than a passing trend. It looks so feminine and feels extremely comfortable. And when it comes to styling, this top is a breeze to work with.
Crisp Button Down
I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who loves crisp white button downs as much as I do. You can take them to work or wear them unbuttoned on the weekends. Other ways to style it is half-tucked into jeans or tied at the waist with a midi skirt.
Classic Tee
Sometimes, fashion isn’t all glamour and designer labels. If you’ve ever had days where you just want to chill, then you know how amazing the perfect white tee can be. I have days where I don’t want to think about what I’m wearing. That’s where a great pair of jeans and white tee comes in handy.
Silk Blouse
The key to looking elevated at any time is wearing a white silk blouse. Whether you are headed to a dinner date or searching for that last-minute look for a big presentation, a silk white blouse makes the biggest impact.
Camisole
Camisoles are a key layering piece in the summer. You can wear them under sheer blouses for a less exposed look or style them with a cardigan at the office. I like to wear my white camis tucked into skinny jeans or with high-waisted trousers. The low neck and clean cut looks so classy and understatedly sexy.
Turtleneck
Once temperatures drop, everyone scrambles to keep warm. The best solution for this is to invest in a turtleneck. Not only are white turtlenecks so chic when matched with trousers, but they are the ultimate layering piece in the fall and winter. You can pile a blazer and wool coat on top or keep it simple and layered with a slip dress.
