Instant Chic

Throw together this outfit for a straight-forward-fashion-with-a-capitol-F statement or use select items to mingle with what's already in your closet.

Each item is a great investment, even the leggings. A good pair of leather look-a-like leggings will carry you from late summer all the way through this winter.

Mary-Kate Olsen

Mary-Kate Olsen has been and probably forever will be my number one style crush. Her ability to channel elements like antique jewelry, unexpected layering and her use of luxury accessories rarely remains to surprise me yet never ceases to amaze.

This look is from a few years back but her bohemian look remains relevant today.

I've compiled a few pieces to create an influenced look without being too literal.
