You know you've found a staple outfit when you've worn the exact same look three times in a week!
I've been reading the book "Lessons from Madame Chic: 20 Stylish Secrets I Learned While Living in Paris" by Jennifer L. Scott, where the author talks about her host family living with a 10-piece wardrobe. She also goes on to talk about creating this kind of capsule wardrobe by defining your true style to help guide you with what you should keep, add, and remove from your closet.
Taking her advice of giving your style a fun label rather than something generic like bohemian or preppy, I settled on my current style being labeled as casual chic. While I love attending events where I get to dress up in really feminine dresses and skirts, that isn't the norm for me. As a person who works from home, I've found my daily outfits are more simple with classic silhouettes paired with accessories to add a bit of flair.
Having a label for my style also helps me when shopping for new items: does this shirt fit within my casual chic style, or is it a cute, eccentric top I like but will not actually wear? While this is still new to me, I feel like it will really help me make thoughtful purchases and may actually help keep my spending down!
Shop this look by coffee budget:

-Grande-
-Venti-
Leave a comment with the label you would use to define your style!
