Basic is Best

In the familiar scramble of figuring out what to wear to work one morning last week, I was reminded of a beyond simple principal: sometimes, basic is best. 

Obviously this is a new revelation, but a reminder that I have to tell myself often. Working in retail and trying to keep this blog updated, there are many days when I am searching my closet for the most "fashion-forward" outfit I can lay my eyes on. And let me tell you, that can get exhausting quickly. 

The lesson I learned? A favorite tee paired with classic denim and a few accessories can pack just as much punch as the latest birkenstock trend.
