I always say that I prefer dresses to pants, but in recent years they’ve become an essential part of my wardrobe. I have a couple pairs that I wear over and over again, and take me from work to weekend. Here are my favorites and stapes for any girl’s closet:

1. Classic Dark Jeans– These days I prefer high-rise that elongate my legs and can be dressed up or down.

2. Ripped Jeans– quite possibly my favorite. I wear these with platform sneakers for a casual,cool look or statement heels for an outfit that is laid back, but surprisingly sophisticated.

3. White Jeans– a must for summer! Obviously white jeans look sexy with a strappy top for the summer months. But I also wear mine during transitional times with an oatmeal or black sweater and pumps.

4. Black Trousers– last but not least are a pair of chic black trousers. Great to pair with t-shirts and heels or a blouse and blazer for a sleek suit look.
