With good basics you’ll have endless options.

…said an anonymous fashion guru, and I completely agree!

In a world, where economies are finicky and financial stewardship is a must-have, we as women have to strategically create our wardrobes. And in doing so, we inevitably have to purchase the basics.

For us, the “basics” usually includes a white v-neck, a pair of jeans, a staple coat, and of course, at least one jersey dress that we can throw on quickly. Plus if we take it a step further, and I’m sure you’ll agree, we tend to purchase these basics in the same color palette: black, white, grey and blue.

Can we agree that a wardrobe made up of those colors alone is boooooooring?

Are you open to switching things up a bit?
