Simple

I have been thinking a lot about what I want to wear in Europe this summer. Everything I buy I have Paris on the brain. For example, I really wanted to purchase these Vince wedges on sale but the amount of times I will wear heels will be slim so I had to pass. Instead I purchased these black ballet flats which are not as much fun but way more practical. Two weeks ago I actually did a MAJOR closet clean out. I went from a completely full closet to about 1/4 full. I went from having 40 dresses to five. Yes, FIVE! It felt great to purge but now I am left with next to nothing to wear. Since I have Paris on the brain as well as a need to re-stock my closet I have been buying a lot of basics and closet staples.

I know I preach this all the time but I find it so fulfilling when you have a closet that can all be mixed-and-matched together. Gone are the days I buy all trendy garments – maybe because I can’t afford to be trendy anymore – but really I don’t think it is my style anymore. Because the french dress very minimal (which I fully embrace) and wear layers, I picked up this Zara boyfriend jacket on a recent shopping trip. I immediately thought it would be perfect for multiple different occasions: the flight over, walking the streets, over a dress for dinner, etc. The possibilities are endless and for me, that is the dream! L’addition s’il vous plait!
