Back to Basics

Sometimes I just need to hit the reset button. Especially during this in between time when the seasons are changing and nothing I thrown on seems quite right. There is nothing better to cleanse the sartorial palette than a basic black ensemble. It does my thinking for me. It packs a powerful statement without saying too much. It’s polished and pulled together.

Alexander Wang has long been one of my favorite designers for not-so-basic basics. Each piece he creates pulls a look together but still manages to stand out in it’s own special way. His creations are like a perfect little unusual dot on an “i”. Necessary yet unconventional.

Reset. Set.
