Today’s post is in response to a request that I LOVED getting.
What are the essentials every woman needs in her closet?
Such a great question. I see this topic in magazines every month, yet it always feels way too broad or too sophisticated for my taste. So here’s a list of my essentials with the touch of edge that I personally can’t be without. Whether you opt for more classic variations or ones with even more edge, these are the must haves for a well-balanced wardrobe.

1. White Silk Blouse
Light and flowy, this shirt looks good with a messy front tuck and jeans or layered over a long tank and leggings.
Equipment Signature Silk Shirt
2. Leather Jacket
Perfect with leggings and boots or a pop-of-color dress, a tough-luxe leather jacket is a must.
Zara Leather Jacket with Studs
3. Boyfriend Blazer
I love the cut of this laid-back piece. Roll up the sleeves to show the fun animal-print lining or leave them down when you’re feeling a bit more polished.
4. Skinny Jeans
Hands-down the softest and best-fitting jeans I’ve ever owned… The ankle has an actual skinny fit unlike some other “skinny” jeans, and they’re so comfortable I’d even wear them on a plane.
5. Little Party Dress
Extremely more impactful than the tried-and-true LBD, the Little Party Dress is bright, flattering and perfect for any event.
6. Flat Boots
Ideal for all-day style, these boots go the extra mile with shiny gold-tone hardware.
7. Aviator Sunnies
The go-to pair for every off-duty look.
Marc by Marc Jacobs Metal Aviators
8. Leggings
Can’t. Live. Without.
9. Day Bag
Large enough to store all the goodies you schlep around during the day, wear this bag as a cross-body for hands-free convenience, or tote it by the top handle for a more posh finish.
10. Evening Clutch
A must for evening affairs, play up the gold shine with matching jewelry.
11. Cap-Toe Pumps
So much more fun than basic black pumps, this cap-toe pair has a fashion-forward touch.
Jeffrey Campbell Bullet Platform Pumps
12. Gold Chain Necklace
Dress up a tee and jeans look or put the final finish on a nighttime ensemble with a long gold necklace.
