Wearing: Madewell jeans, Urban Outfitters tank (on sale!), Matisse mules, Blank NYC moto jacket via Stitch Fix (sold out, similar here), Gorjana lariat necklaces via Rocksbox, Ascot+Hart Texas necklace

Every girl has that one outfit. The safety net, the security blanket, the ol’ reliable. The one you wear when nothing. else. is. working. Like a lot of girls, my go-to look is made up of a lot of black. Black ripped skinnies, black moto jacket, and either black or tan mules or booties.

These black jeans from Madewell are no joke. In fact, the first pair I bought, I wore for years until they ripped beyond repair, in a place that no jeans need distressing. After having fixed them twice, I sadly retired them. To my delight, this season Madewell brought them back! I almost bought two *just in case* but they reassured me that the seams had been reinforced this time around. Get them. You won’t regret it.

On another note, I love that pins are making a comeback! During a recent trip to Hawaii, I was able to get one at nearly every place boyf and I visited. They were the perfect souvenir. Cheap, small enough to bring back, and stylish! I have a few vintage ones I have thrifted over the years too. I just love how the Saturn one (which is actually a bowling ball) has a Vivienne Westwood feel to it.

What is your go-to easy and reliable look? Let me know in the comments!
