I truly enjoy putting outfits together, picking out what shirt would look best with this skirt or those pants and then accessorizing with scarves, jewelry, and shoes. But…

Some mornings I just need to throw on something and head out the door. You know those mornings…

You hit snooze too many times. One cup of coffee didn’t beat back the sleepy haze, and the rest of your family is running around frantic.

On those mornings we all need effortless, classic clothes to put on and make getting ready in the mornings easy! That’s when a closet with these preppy wardrobe staples comes in handy!

White Oxford Button Down – My favorites are these non-iron options from Banana Republic and Foxcroft.

Dark Wash Denim – I’m obsessed with 7 for All Mankind. The fit and wear is amazing!

Floral Silk Scarf – This Fleurs Scarf at Nordstrom is so pretty, and I’m thinking of ordering the Tulip Scarf from Kate Spade shown above.

Bright, Colorful Heels – These cute striped slides I’m wearing are only $25.99 and these pink wedges pictured above are lovely!

Most of these options are budget friendly, but when buying wardrobe staples splurging and choosing the piece with the better construction and fabric will pay for itself in the long run. The point of these staples is that they will stay in your closet for a long time, so you want to buy quality that will stand up to repeated wear and washings.

Navy pearl studded handbag Zac Zac Posen.

P.S. Isn’t this handbag just lovely? Zac Posen designs the most chic little bags, and Nordstrom Rack has quiet the selection right now! I mean between the navy leather and pearl studs what is not to love? I can’t wait to style it with pretty dresses and flirty skirts this summer!
