french 1 2 3

sometimes, getting dressed in the morning is as easy as 1.2.3, especially if the clothes reflect timeless, modern style. separates are a mainstay in my closet and easily transition from one season to the next. one reason i rely heavily on skirts, blouses, and jackets. but now and then it’s fun to mix up those classic pieces with trends. this fall, laces, and grommets are everywhere. so what fun to find an a-line skirt with this finishing detail. the gold accents add a little pizzazz. but what about this shirt with a peter pan collar? feminine and flirty this blouse can take you to the office in style. but i’m certain it can pull weekend duty with ease. who remembers patent leather? as a young girl, i always had a pair of patent leather shoes sitting in my closet. well, it’s back in a big way this fall. take a look at this tote. it’s the pièce de résistance. didn’t i tell you that getting ready is as easy as 1.2.3?
