Basic Black

so i have been reading this book called basic black: the essential guide for getting ahead in work and in life by cathie black

cathie is the president of hearth magazines. she is in charge of the great magazines cosmopolitian & marie claire, which i am sure everyone has heard of. this book offers invaluable lessons that will help you land the job, promotion, or project you are vying for; cathie provides personal stories of her own and other women that have been valuable in her life. as i read this, the one thing missing from this book is the fashion, but as i read it, all i can think about is the basic black necessities in fashion that these women should be wearing while conquering their successful careers. so i decided to share some of the "basic" blacks that i think every woman should have in her closet (not all these are work appropriate, but i love them)
a little ruffle goes along way

from work to play

one shoulder, a great new trend that leaves a little sexy


these are my must have accessory when the leaves have fallen and we hit our cold months (in dallas that means december)


and who doesn't love a little Louboutin
