Don’t you just love the weekend? You’ll notice on social networks people’s statuses reading “TGIF” to mark the end of their work week. Saturday brunch at a hip bistro, stopping by an ice cream stand for a scoop of your favorite flavor while on your way to the park, sipping Starbucks coffee as you flip through a fashion magazine at Barnes & Nobles or jumping from boutique to boutique in search of something new. Needless to say, you’ll need a foolproof outfit to get you through the day, so voilà!

The Breakdown

Don’t sleep on this  Jersey t-shirt. I own at least three (in olive, black and gray) and there’s just so many ways to play this up. The draped feature can hide a few extra pounds if needed, plus it’s a better alternative to a plain tee and pairs well with work attire.

When I think of mules, I get a flashback of Jenny McCarthy’s Candies Ad, not to mention Jessica Simpson’s practically lived in these shoes. But unlike our playful blonds’ eye-popping versions, these python platform mules offer a mature look with extra style. For chilly days, cover your feet in a pair of black anklet dress socks and make sure to wear this look with pants, you want to create the illusion of a mule-bootie. But if you go bare-toed, try a dark lacquer pedicure, it’s sooo Chanel.

Not your typical cardigan, this draped jersey has a cozy Helmut Lang appeal. The poncho-caplet hybrid can dub as outerwear or replace a blazer.

Canvas totes are the staple bag for eco-friendly individuals and fashionistas alike. They render a laid-back look without sacrificing style. Great as a main bag, useful as a side bag. It’s a win-win.
