I know I’ve chatted a bit already about this transitional weird-weather time of year (one day it’s summer, the next it’s fall), but when getting dressed #thestruggleisreal! However, before you go ordering all sorts of pieces that will have a short-lived stay in your closet, consider investing in a few key items that will carry you through not only this transitional time, but also the next few seasons…no matter what the forecast has in mind.
For those of you new to the blog, here’s where I let you in on a little secret about two of my favorite brands: Worth New York and its sister W by Worth. I was introduced to both earlier this year (seen here, here and here), and have become a season regular. Each of their collections showcase wardrobe staples that can be worn now AND later, truly transcending seasons (and trends for that matter) with top-notch quality.
For today I specifically decided on each W By Worth item because I could see myself wearing them now and well into winter. I just adore this grey pleated skirt with its not too long, not too short lengths, paired with my beloved over-the-knee boots (similar here). For the now the skirt would look great with pumps or sandals, and then with booties and tights in later months. Up top I chose their suiting collar sleeveless blouse and classic black cardigan. Staying on theme, I’m able to wear the sleeveless top alone now, but plan to pair it with a suit coat or under a sweater once the temps drop. And speaking of black cardigans, I’m a firm believer that everyone should own one. This one is lightweight, comfortable and incredibly versatile.
So that’s it; with one simple outfit in one of my favorite color palettes (black and white) I’m ready for whatever this whacky weather has in store. Tell me friends, are you finding this transitional time as trying as me? Truly, MKR
