2.) Bold Jeans- Some might argue the colored jeans craze has ended, but I continue to wear them proudly anyway because they make an otherwise plain outfit one worth wearing. Both colored and bold-printed jeans make a statement on their own giving the illusion you put quite some time into planning your ensemble, when really it required little effort and time. Black skinny jeans add a touch of elegance to a simple outfit and make an outfit more put together. Jeans have a place in every season by pairing them with different styles of shoes or simply by rolling the legs into cuffs during the warmer months.

3.) Denim Shirts- Button-up chambray tops are the most versatile clothing article because of the multiple ways they can be styled to fit the different weather each season entails. During the winter and autumn seasons, leaving the sleeves rolled all the way down, buttoned closed, and adding a scarf on top provides protection from the harsh winter air. In the warmer months, rolling up the sleeves and leaving the top unbuttoned paired with a complementing embellished tank top underneath makes the perfect combination for a layered look.

4.) White shoes- My white, lace-up, lo-pro, authentic Vans serve as my go-to shoe whenever I can’t decide on what pair to wear. Plain-white, lace-up sneakers look good with practically everything I own in my closet, making them a must. Some people may not want to buy white shoes for the fear of them getting soiled easily, but protective spray can be purchased to keep them looking fresh out of the box. When I first bought mine, I was so cautious about not getting a speck of dirt on them but since some random guy in the hallway stepped on them on the third day of school, ruining their nearly perfect condition, I started to care less.

5.) Arm Candy- Lately I have found myself obsessing over all different types of unique bracelets, cuffs, watches and rings to accent outfits perfectly. Mixing metals is one of my favorite things to do with jewelry, especially the combination of rose-gold toned and antique bronze pieces, which can create a whole different layer of your outfit to work with. Jewelry doesn’t go out of style at any time of the year so invest in a few statement pieces to pull any bland ensemble together and show off your unique style.
