Lately I haven’t felt much like shopping which isn’t like me at all. I am not sure I ever thought that sentence would be typed on this here blog. I think it’s a combination of my changing post-baby body and not getting out of the house much right now. Whatever the reason, I am realizing more than ever the importance of building your wardrobe with classic pieces. I haven’t found myself bored or lacking things to wear even without new items. Each piece in this post has been featured on the blog before and worn even more in real life.
With pieces like black denim, stripes, a classic moto jacket, and good boots, the combinations are endless. I’ve also gotten a lot of wear out of my favorite distressed denim and classic sweaters and scarves lately. What are your go-to classic items? I’m linking some favorites below in case you are looking to add some pieces to your closet.
I’m so excited to be co-hosting Rachelle’s weekly linkup with her today. I’ve followed her blog, Pink Sole, for ages and really feel like I know her. Isn’t it funny how blogs connect you that way. She’s the best and always shares such great style inspiration! I hope you’ll link up your posts below.

You look absolutely fantastic! I know what you mean though about not wanting to shop–I’ve just now gotten back in the mood for it, but for a good couple of months post-baby everything fit so weird. You can never go wrong with classics though–bring on the stripes!
Such a great post love!! A pair of black denim, stripes and a moto jacket are important essentials every girl should have in their wardrobe! Love this suede moto jacket on you π

I think it’s perfectly to fine to go through phases where we utilize what we have and appreciate it. Actually, that’s how I try to dress myself most of the time and make shopping for something new the special occasion. In any case, you do have an amazing wardrobe with great pieces to pull from and such a good sense of how to combine in new ways. Your outfit looks great overall!

Such a chic look Amy! i totally agree with you – building a classic wardrobe is so important. Trendy items are always fun, but it’s so nice to have classic go-to pieces that look good with everything.
