Classics
Classics are universal to all women regardless of shape or size. They are staples in our closet we can not live without and simply adore every time we slip them on. The Chanel jacket that immediately transports us to NYC’s upper eastside lunching with the ladies or the LBD (Little Black Dress) conservative yet sexy you can always count. Or the amazing black trouser pant Katharine Hepburn would be envious of. The pair that fit to perfection and make you look slim and shapely in all the right places. All of these pieces embody not only versatility, but more importantly longevity. Versatility and longevity are two building blocks to a blissful closet. Especially in today’s economy, it is important our wardrobes have endurance so reinforce your foundation.
