Summer Basics: They’ll Never Go Out Of Style

Sponsored by Zappos

Do you ever feel like it’s hard to put a label on your personal style? Sure – it’s easy to describe a few of your favorite things to wear…but when you start to go down that list, you realize that your definition of personal style changes depending on how you’re feeling that day.

One day you may wake up and feel like going grunge, or extra feminine, or maybe sporty. That favorite pair of denim can be dressed up for a sassy date night, or dressed down for a lazy errand day.

Your closet is an endless supply of different styles that fit your mood, the weather, the occasion…you get the picture.

What I’ve started to notice is that regardless of how much I may like that bold print crop top, more often than not I reach for the basics.

The perfect tee that I’ve (FINALLY) found in white and black, the linen button down, the just-cropped-enough sweater, the jeans that fit perfect 100% of the time. The basics list goes on, and truly never disappoints.

Basics will NEVER stop being necessary – because when you’re in a rush and need something to wear, what do you grab?! Your favorite, fool-proof basic.

What I LOVE about this Splendid stripe top I recently got from Zappos is that it’s something I’d still consider a basic; It’s effortless to style with pretty much any type of bottoms you want to grab.

It’s amazing to have patterns in your wardrobe that you classify as a basic as opposed to a unique piece. Stripes, leopard, polka dots: all patterns I consider to be their own kind of basic.

The best part about this cute stripe top is that I can wear it tucked in, tied up as a crop top, half-tucked, untucked – again, the possibilities to make multiple outfits is endless.

MORAL of the story, you need this Splendid stripe top for all of your summer wardrobe needs, and you can get it from Zappos (free two day shipping if you’re a rewards member, which is also free!).
