Question: I’ve paid out the nose for college and am still paying, so I have no real money to buy ‘real world’ clothes. What’s your recommendation on what I really need to buy….right now?
Answer: Great question and, frankly, it’s not just applicable to recent college graduates. Have you gotten a whiff of our current economic state? Everyone wants to know the wardrobe basics to build on. We’ve got four great styling do’s:
- A fabulous, structured handbag ~ J Crew edie purse ($238), Mischa Barton buckle satchel ($119), large flapover shoulder bag ($117)
- A knee-length trench/light wool coat ~ belted coat in herringbone ($180), double-breasted military coat ($173), belted midi coat ($171)
- A fitted sweater set ~ J Crew jackie shell & cardigan ($100), Ann Taylor shell & cardigan ($85)
- A simple, almond toe high heel (3-4 inches…anything higher says you’re ready for the club!) ~ Doyscher black patent heel ($80), AT perfect platform pump ($175), Mease pump ($56)
Good luck out there!

Thanks so much for sending me the link to the link for the camel top handle satchel tote bag from Oasis. I’m in the market for a reasonable priced bag for fall, and this one does the trick nicely. As always, thanks for your posts.
