Coming up with what to wear every day can be a chore!
However it can also be fun if we have the right pieces.
If we have the pieces we need to make every outfit a winner, we can create many outfits from a few key items.
Sometimes this is a challenge as we only have in our wardrobes what we have. So we have to put our creative hats on and come up with new ways of putting it together.
My friend, boss and inspiration Wendy Mak (Owner
www.smittenwithstyle.com) who I do styling for, has just written a book The terrific thirty
www.theterrificthirty.com.au.
It is all about the thirty pieces we need to have to put together over a thousand outfits for every occassion.

The terrific thirty is a wonderful check list just to help you get your wardrobe organised and then you will be finding new ways to wear these pieces. Great Christmas present idea I will be getting a few.
My Outfit pic today has been inspired by some of Wendy's ideas in the book.
This is a dress that is a lovely shape. I have dressed it up for a special lunch, down to wear to work with slightly more comfortable shoes and then added a top and belt, changed accessories and totally changed the look. Then added trench vest to give deception of a different outfit.
