Black Wide Leg Trousers

Not only are trousers super on trend right now, but this piece is a great buy because it looks great on so many different body types, it’s seasonless and it can be dressed up or down.

Silk Shirt Dress

Shirt dresses are such a great investment piece because you can wear them casually or elevated. The key is to find an option with buttons that go all the way to the bottom. Look for a silk option rather than cotton to help you manipulate it in different ways.
