Less Is More

Basics with a Twist
Because sometimes all it takes is a swipe of classic red lipstick (and a crushed pumpkin spice latte.)
Autumn brings so many styling opportunities. From drapey dresses and snuggly sweaters to structured jackets and statement boots.
While there are an endless number of ways to create an amazing outfit this fall, here is a simple one to inspire you.
Go fresh-faced, and accent with statement lip. (My current favorite is Chanel Rouge Coco in Arthur, but really any bright shade will do the trick.) Keep it easy and effortless. Slip into stripes and add your favorite weekend jeans.
I’m always on the hunt for minimal pieces with that extra something. Basic, yet elevated.
These high waist jeans are a perfect example, classic with a twist in the raw edge ankle and multi-button closure. (Plus my coffee-guzzling partner in crime here, keeping it simple in her black and white checks, and black boots.)
While I have a closet full of striped tops (don’t we all?) this particular one is unexpected in it's structure and crop (and it's less than $20!) The sheen makes the black against white pop – it’s about playing with contrasts. (The clean backdrop makes those red lips stand out in the best way!)
Add is some minimal flats (with that Zara edge) and a simple leather bag and your golden, girl!
Sophisticated and relaxed, for a weekend of fun or on the run.
