1. A sheer top + black jeans + heels

I love a sheer top and I have a tank under this one, but just a bra would be cute too! bra if it’s colder or snowy you can trade the heels out for black boots!

    2. A black midi (or maxi) dress + tall boots + scarf

    This is such a good combo and so easy! It’s definitely worth it to have a black dress you love.

    Any top you love and a long cardigan always looks elevated! As for the jeans, it can be wide leg, straight leg, skinny or whatever you like.
