The Power of Classic
When looking to rock a simple style, stick to classic, timeless pieces that are staples in the fashion industry.
Women
Some classic outfit ideas for women are:
White Shirt
The White shirt with a collar or not, is a classic wardrobe staple, that every woman must have at least one in her closet. There are at least 40 ways to wear a white shirt - I will state them in another blog. A white shirt is my signature and I can't get enough of them. Why? because they can be worn day or night, with jeans, a pantsuit or even a full skirt; your options are truly endless.
Considered one of the most versatile wardrobe staples, a white shirt works for warm and cool seasons alike, because you can wear it with your favorite shorts, or even layer it under a sweater.
Dark wash jeans
Jeans, Denim, Blue Jeans, whatever you call them – they’re an essential item in every wardrobe. No matter your size, age or body type, you should have a few pairs of dark washed jeans in your closet. They work for nearly all occasions outside of a formal setting and look good with virtually everything. You'll never wrong, you can dress them up or down, with a sweater, a blazer or a T. you can wear them on pumps, boots, tennis shoes or a flat. They are likely the pants you’ll wear a majority of the time.
Turtle neck
If you are kinda lazy person, or woke up late and were in a rush, but you still want to look great without spending a lot of time putting your outfit together, pair your jeans, pencil skirt, and wide legged pants with a turtleneck. If it's cold, add a coat or wool blazer and you're good to go.
For oversized turtleneck sweaters, you can wear them with skinny jeans or slim pair of pants, for a more modern look. For a more daring look, wear them with leather pants or a leather jacket.
Blazer
A blazer is the type of jacket that is considered suitable for formal occasions. Although blazers are similar to suit jackets, they do not technically feature matching pants. The blazer is a step lower than the suit jacket. It is a hybrid of sorts because it is more formal than a sports jacket but unlike the suit jacket, it is not worn with a matching pair of trousers.
In every girl's wardrobe, there should be a blazer hanging. It's the perfect clothing piece to dress up a casual outfit, to wear over a dress on a chilly summer night, to wear to work, or to wear as a complete suit. The key is to choose the right fabric, color and ensure a perfect fit. A Linen Blazer might fit better on a summer day, and a dark colored wool blazer might fit better in an office environment. The fabric and color determine when and how to wear the blazer.
Black & White
As Karl Lagerfeld once said, "black and white always looks modern, whatever that word means."
The perfection of a high contrast look is hard to put into words, but we know chic when we see it. Wearing black and white head-to-toe is the easiest formula for a put-together look. Whether it's a white dress with black accessories, or a white blouse paired with this season's must-have noir
trouser or graphic stripes, it's hard to mess up this timeless color combination. You don't have to spend time worrying about what accessories will coordinate since black and white goes with everything from a crimson pout to a leopard-print sandal.
Pencil skirt
In the year of 1954, Christian Dior revolutionised women’s fashion with the creation of the world’s first pencil skirt. Taking the emphasis up to the hips and the natural, beautiful curves of females everywhere, the pencil skirt has since been determined as the most flattering skirt on the market. a piece so diversified that can be worn in every occasion from a corporate setting, to a casual mornign coffee date. Whether you opt for statement-making florals or shimmering sequins, sultry leather or luxurious lace, there is a vast range of exciting ways to bring this trend into the 21st century.
How to Wear Pencil Skirt?
For a sophisticated, on-trend look, ensure your pencil skirt falls to or below the knees.
Balance bold fabrics such as leather, sequins and lace with simple pieces in classic colours.

The zenith of elegance in any woman's wardrobe is the little black dress, the power of which suggests dash and refinement.
The little black dress (LBD) is a black evening or cocktail dress, cut simply and often quite short. The LBD can be worn with a jacket and pumps for daytime business wear. It can also be worn with ornate jewelry and accessories for evening wear or a formal event.
A sleeveless or long sleeve black dress captures the attention of everyone around you. Keep it simple with a solid black color, so you can up the ante with accessories and shoes.
