back to basics
good morning, ladies! is anyone else as tired as i am today? why is it that after a long weekend i’m more tired than just a plain old run of the mill two day weekend? but i had fun and i hope you did too.

today’s outfit is short and sweet and pulled from the archives. but it’s safe to say that a black pencil skirt is a timeless classic that belongs in everyone’s closet. this skirt is by ann taylor circa 2015.it’s ponte and is a dream to wear. plus, it is the perfect length! ann is known for wardrobe staples and office attire. take a look at the current version of a little black skirt here and here.

black and brown is a chic color combo taken directly from the boys. it isn’t often that i spot a shirt that has stripes and black and brown. when i do i pounce! this shirt is from j.crew circa 2014. similar here and here.
belts are a great way to accessorize a ho-hum outfit. belts also last for years so don’t be afraid to invest in one or two. before you know it you will have a nice little collection at your beck and call.
cap toed shoes are also classic and go with just about everything if the shoe color scheme is kept neutral. take a look here and here.
sometimes, getting dressed in the morning is as easy as 1.2.3. if you have the basics hanging in your closet. happy tuesday!
I can totally relate. And why is it that the work week can drag on,but the weekend just seems to fly by? Even a long one! That is a classic look–I have a similar belt, and I love it–I am realizing I had it when I was in my 20’s, and well…we all know how old that means it is! Love the skirt–anything in a ponte is fabulous in my book. So comfy and doesn’t wrinkle, either. The length of that really is perfect. Happy Tuesday to you as well.
I love this look! And yes, classic clothes are always the best:). I love this belt – very unique. Have a great day Beth, Renata
A great classic indeed, beautifully worn!
Beth, this is SUCH a flattering combo on you! You look beautiful and fierce, lady!!!
While every silhouette seems to work on you, THIS ONE…sigh It’s perfection.
Love this look! So classic! Would you consider parting with it? Lol. Especially that blouse and those shoes. Love them.
Very elegant. Nice look!
