"Wearable Wednesday" [HOW TO]

Today we would like to challenge everyone to introduce a new item into your ward-robe,  “slouchy pants”. Now, I know that for most of our lives we have been taught that our pants should be tailored, straight legged and have the perfect fit. But I say lets switch up our "same ole", "same ole" and try a new silhouette. Don’t get me wrong I still love my skinny jeans but variety is the spice of life.

“Slouchy Pants” by design are loose fitted with a tapered hem. Luckily, slouchy pants come in an assortment of styles. These fab pants come pleaded, cropped, flat front and so much more. You can wear them for work or for play. My personal favorite is the slouchy sweatpants. 

Combine one of these printed joggers with a sleeveless scoop neck tees, leather jacket, some edgy heels and you have a hot, trendy, fun outfit for a night of partying. So, try one and I’m positive you will agree that it’s the perfect stylish addition to your wardrobe.

[20] Closet Basics

So, this Friday I had plans to go hang out with one of my close friends. It’s been a while, and we are all doing our adult thing so we really needed some down time. As I was getting ready I get a text, “I have nothing to wear”. Ok, I needed to keep this simple because we are supposed to meet up in about 7 minutes. I texted back… “ok girl grab a white tank, skinny jeans, a black blazer and a hot peer of pumps”. The next text I get back, and I’m quoting here, “You are asking for too much”. Lol,  smh.. what I’m going to do with my friend. 

After that conversation, I thought how many of us are having the same problem. How many times have we run to the mall to buy an outfit for a girl’s night out because we don’t have the essentials in our closet? So, I’ve put together 20 closet basics that every woman should have.
