If the last four months have taught me anything fashion-wise it's that a good wardrobe of staples goes a long way. Case in point, this $15 u-neck cotton tank top I bought back in April and can't stop wearing. I first purchased it in gray but went back for black and white because it's such a great basic. I've worn one of them at least once a week since and have continued to be happy... it's really soft/great quality for the price. Topshop sizing can run a little small and I sized up to a US 4 for a looser fit and love the way it hangs. This tank always sells out really fast but is back in stock right now - I made sure to order a back up in white (my most worn).
I've been trying to simplify my closet and stock it full of staples I know I'll actually wear. Lately that means athleisure, shorts, jeans and basic tops that go with everything. Cotton tanks, tees, cropped shirts, etc. I love a good top that you can wear with everything from bike shorts to jeans - from taking the kids for a neighborhood walk and (someday) run errands or go out to eat. Today I'm sharing a round up of my go-to tops.
Hope you had a relaxing holiday weekend! I’m slowly getting back into the swing of things over here and today I wanted to share my favorite after Christmas sale. It’s actually Nordstrom’s half-yearly sale and there are a ton of great mark-downs.
The perfect time to stock up on wardrobe staples or fun trendy pieces. Sharing all my favorites above and below!
Happy Wednesday – thanks for reading!
If this print looks familiar it’s because I wore the bomber jacket version just a couple weeks back! It’s so light and airy for spring, I couldn’t help but get it in both pieces. This slip dress is so comfortable and easy to dress up or down. I wore it to a brunch a few weeks ago with wedges and a denim jacket but you could also wear it with heels for something fancier. I’ve even belted it for a more fitted look. Love versatile pieces like this.

Once the calendar hits March I’m pretty much in spring mode. By now I’m sick of all my winter clothes and ready for light and airy pieces to transition into the next few months. At the start of each season I like to put together some wardrobe staples I know I’ll get a lot of use out of. Items that can easily mix and match with each other as well as other great basics.
