Less is More

As much as I love dressing up, sometimes I don’t really feel like it. I love lounging in a pair of sweats with no make up on and calling it a day. Unfortunately, I don’t have the luxury to do that on the weekdays since I am a working woman. I’ve stressed that a little black dress is a must have in any closet, but I also think some basic black pants are essential too. This can range from skinny jeans to slacks and trousers. I have this cropped black, loose denim from H&M that I always go to when I don’t know what to wear. It goes with everything and when I say everything, I literally mean everything. I can wear any top, color or pattern with it because it’s being paired with black bottoms. Below is an example of an outfit where I didn’t try at all. I just chose any sweater in my closet, wore my black pants and picked some boots and wam bam, I am done.

I mean we can all agree that it isn’t the best outfit, but it’s also not the worst. I just wanted to show that it is possible to get away with something simple. Wearing a nice jacket or a nice bag can really tie this look together. I’m not a big fan of over the top clothing or anything too showy/fancy, so this outfit is appropriate for days where I really don’t care about how I look. So the take away advice from this post is that you don’t always have to wake up looking flawless like Beyonce. Believe me, it’s okay, sometimes less is more.
