You know that feeling when you’re searching through your closet repeatedly? And you just can’t find anything to wear? By that time, I’m usually throwing a “I don’t have any clothes” tantrum-and yes, I am staring at a closet full of clothes *teeth clenching emoji* perfectly normal.
Well those days are usually the days that I find myself in an inspiration rut or frustrated because I’m lacking certain pieces in my wardrobe (good excuse to go shopping,right?). My solution for this very common girl problem is simple, just take it back to the basics. Whatever your basics are. My tip is to go for an all black look because it’s simple, yet very chic and effortless. What more could you want in an outfit?
Here’s the scenario: you woke up late, have 20 minutes to get ready (aside from showering), and you have a long day ahead filled with meetings, blogging and a friend’s birthday dinner. Oh and let’s not forget that you don’t feel well. Yup, that kind of day. We may or may not be talking about me. So, it’s time to decide; spend 20 minutes finding the perfect outfit OR your makeup.
Makeup wins.
And here’s why. An all black outfit is timeless especially when paired with the right pieces. For instance, black faux leather leggings are your best friend when you need to be comfortable but still look presentable. They can be dressed up by just adding a pair of pumps (like here) or you can opt for a comfy look by throwing on a pair of converses. I knew I would be spending the night at a lounge so I wanted to go for something a bit on the sexy side so I threw on this semi-sheer blouse from Forever 21. I wore my new Kate Spade bag for a pop of color and that’s it! Simple,chic, and you’re out the door! Oh, and that’s two-day old hair.
