Quality Is Greater Than Quantity

If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it a thousand times and will likely say it a thousand more. Buy the best quality items you can afford and then take care of them. It’s by far the easiest way to keep clutter out of your home, love everything you own, and be responsible for the planet all at the same time.

Given that we believe so strongly in Owning Well®, we’re always on the lookout for companies that meet our requirements. We were recently introduced to Halsbrook and their products are definitely in-line with our philosophy! Beautiful classic clothing and accessories made of high quality materials that are made to last…what more could we ask for?

Wardrobe Essentials

When we add to our wardrobes, we’re always careful to choose pieces that will fit in with what we already own. We mostly pick blacks, whites and neutrals for the majority of our collection and then add statement pieces in bright colors to liven things up. This practice ensures that our closets don’t get overloaded with mismatched items that ultimately don’t align with our lifestyles.

The good news is that Halsbrook is having a Wardrobe Essentials Sale and we couldn’t be more excited! There are so many timeless pieces to choose from and they’re all 20% off with the code BEST20. The sale ends on 4/20 so go check it out while you still have time!


Our Personal Favorites

Now that spring is here, and not here, and here again, a good transitional top is crucial. This Black Stretch Tank is perfect for layering under sweaters and jackets and would pair beautifully with some classic denim.

Speaking of spring being an on again off again affair, this cashmere travel poncho is the answer to every breezy day or cool evening. It comes in ten different colors and we think it’s absolutely stunning!

So we don’t think we’d be alone if we said that the most essential piece of clothing in any line up is a great pair of jeans. That means a little stretch, a comfy fit and the right color…and these jeans have it all!

While many of our days are spent in jeans (we’re not mad about it), there are times when we need something a little more dressy and sophisticated. This dress fits the bill – it comes in four colors and would be the perfect addition to any wardrobe.

Every outfit can benefit from a little bling! We prefer to choose classic designs that will never look dated and will last a lifetime. We can envision ourselves wearing these earrings today, tomorrow and a decade from now.

We weren’t compensated in any way for this post. We just truly believe that if you are intentional about what you purchase and vigilant about what comes into your home, you will be better off in the long run.

If you need to declutter your wardrobe or closet to make space for some new wardrobe essentials, or just to have a clear out to make use of those purchases still with the tags on, then we can assist. You can purchase our course here, which will make it super simple.
