of blacks, whites, nudes, and other neutrals


























































The key here is looking chic and effortless. The combination of all these pieces creates an ultra-sophisticated blank canvas. All you need are killer accessories: bright bags, colorful heels or flats, scarves, jewelry, and watch. You're good to go. Invest on classic wardrobe pieces: crisp white shirt, blue button downs, cashmere sweater, perfect-fitting black jeans, denims, black heels, black flats, nude boots, shirt dress, classic black carry-all, and red shoes.

There is a thin line though of becoming a bore when you combine all these together. So infuse some twist of your own, either a hairstyle or jewelry, to spice-up the overall look. Nothing beats the elegance of simple, classic pieces that look clean and fit well. You can even go from day to night by just changing your hairstyle, make-up, and shoes.

  1. Back to basics.Ive been thinking about this a lot- they teach us lots of fancy stuff whether in writing, video editing, filmmaking, everything actualy. But the good ones are using the basic stuff. Basic style of writing, using simple words, cut-to-cut video editing,no makeup makeup look, basic clothes. But only the ones who've explored the fancy know how to make the basic look good.
