Introducing my new summer fashion styling staples. When you subscribe to closetchoreography.com you get a welcome email with my styling staples; the 6 most versatile pieces you’ll ever own . These pieces are my stylist secret to achieving an ageless look that is effortlessly pulled together. Here is my summer edition just in time.


1. NEUTRAL PRINT

Neutral prints are those patterns that play well with others. You can interest to your outfit by adding them boldly along with another neutral print or subtly in a shoes or an accessory. This summer embrace getting dressed again and consider a neutral print skirt as a cool alterative to shorts.

WAYS TO WEAR

NEUTAL PRINT SKIRTS


2. NUDE SHOES

A nude shoe is probably the number one item I reach for to make a look “work”. It never competes with an outfit and can elongate and slenderize like no other shoe can. Right now anything with a square toe and woven or quilted straps are in. 

WAYS TO WEAR

NEW NUDE SHOES


3. UPDATED DENIM

A midrise light wash crop jean will easily become your go to pair of jeans each day. They work with any shoe in style  from a sneaker to a sandal. To get the best fit know your numbers. In general anything with a 10-11.5″ rise and 26″ inseam works best on most women.

THESE FIT 9/10 WOMEN


4. LAYERING PIECE

BLAZER ONLY $49.99 | NEUTRAL PRINT STIPED T-SHIRT $4.99 | LIGHT WASH BURMUDA $124 | TOTE $40 | BELT (VINTAGE) | HOOPS $395| HAT (SIMILAR) $49

Layers make an outfit look less like a uniform and more like an ensemble. My favorite layers for summer are a soft denim jacket, cardigan, and modern white blazer. Make sure you choose a style that fits your shoulders and defines your waist which creates such a flattering silhouette you can literally wear them over anything.

BEST BLAZERS FOR YOUR BUCK


5. DESIGNER HANDBAG

A designer handbag is the key to curating your closet from Target to CHANEL. When you wear it with your other staples a name brand bag gives your entire look instant fashionable credibility. For summer I suggest a cross body bag in light neutral you can wear all year. Cross bodies are less bulky and less expensive than their larger counterparts.

WAYS TO WEAR

YSL


6. HOOPS

This summer pull your hair up and put some hoops on. Hoops can are a timeless accessory and can be classic or trendy. They work as a stand alone accessory and play well with others too. These silver David Yurman hoops have been a staple of mine and many clients over the years. A thin 1.75″ 14 k gold hoop is equally as versatile. Invest in quality for these summer staples so you can wear them to the pool too.
