I’m going to start this post with a very “uh.. duh!” statement. I love to shop. Trying out new trends is exciting and as a fashion blogger, I definitely like to wear what’s new for the season. But you can’t just fill your closet with trendy pieces. You really need those basics that you can wear again and again as the years go on. So, today I want to talk about the winter basics that you should have in your closet.
FRIDAY FAVES: CLEAR HEELS
Clear heels were one of the biggest shoe trends of 2016, and I have a feeling the style will continue to grow in popularity this spring/summer. Brands are already coming out with sandal versions, which is a good indication that this is one style that is still having it’s moment in the spotlight.
GROUTFIT: THE ALL GRAY OUTFIT
I’m a huge fan of monochromatic outfits, but sometimes the tried and true all-black attire can get a little “blah” when you wear it day after day. So… why not try an all gray outfit, AKA the “groutfit”? It’s chic, cozy AND you’re able to layer which means you’ll also stay warm.

WINTER OUTFIT INSPO: BELT YOUR COAT
I like big belts and I cannot lie. Seriously. I have a collection of them in my closet that have been waiting to see the light of day since 2013… and now is the time. Belting your outerwear is a great way to make a statement and is flattering on most body types because you’re cinching your waist. Here are my tips to pull off the look…

TREND SPOTLIGHT: RUFFLED SLEEVES
In my last post I talked about how to upgrade your winter wardrobe. Embracing ruffled sleeves was one of my main tips. Cascading ruffles adds a little intrigue to your outfit – and you can basically style it like any other shirt or sweater!
