What’s your uniform these days? For half the year, mine is a cozy sweater, blue jeans and classic sneakers. Every fall, I’m on the hunt for great versions of these pieces…
My friend Kendra, who is my style crush in many ways, put together this easy look. The sweater is neutral — so she can wear it all fall and winter. (Also, tucking the front of a sweater into high-rise jeans looks cute.)
Stan Smith sneakers, with their iconic 70s design, always look great, and I love this pair’s touch of navy.
Kendra layered everything with a black duster coat. “A duster is a wardrobe workhorse,” she says, “It feels equally appropriate dressed up or with sneakers. You can layer it over a sweater this fall and throw it over a dress next spring.”
For the base of a fall uniform, here are five pretty sweaters: cable, honeycomb, cardigan, ribbed and turtleneck.
What are you wearing these days? Do you have anything on rotation?
