Choosing A Color

Color should be worn sparingly to maintain the simplistic aesthetic. When adding color, focus on one item at a time, such as your top or handbag. Choose a color that will pop against neutrals, like avocado green or burnt orange.

Small Sizes

When it comes to wearing handbags, smaller totes will make your outfit look more expensive. Think along the lines of a FENDI baguette shoulder bag when choosing the perfect accessory.

Basic Black

A black base is the easiest way to start building your outfit. Choose a long, black skirt or jeans and add a pair of leather ankle boots in the same color.
