WEAR IT
NOTHING BASIC. EVERYTHING SIGNATURE.
Growing up with not much, I overcompensated when I could finally shop for myself. My closet overflowed, yet I kept reaching for the same few pieces.
Then I learned the 80/20 rule: I wear 20% of my clothes 80% of the time. The bold silhouettes and “statement” pieces? Mostly untouched.
It’s the same reason James Dean’s white T-shirt, Audrey Hepburn’s little black dress, Steve Jobs’ black turtleneck, and Dorothy’s red shoes became iconic — the basics, worn often, define personal style.
With the right accessories, the basics — simple, versatile, endlessly adaptable — stopped being background. They became my signature.
