One Base, Multiple Outfits: Black Midi Skirt & Ivory Blouse (Workwear Edition)
In a workwear wardrobe, a midi skirt and a blouse are essential staples. You can create many outfits around these basics in your closet. You can wear them by adding different layers and shoes to create multiple looks. To get the most out of our wardrobes, we need to have several wardrobe staples in neutral colors. In this post, I am showing how to add several layers and shoes to a black midi skirt and an ivory blouse to create five outfits. I am using this J. Crew Midi Skirt in “black” and White House Black Market V-Neck Shell Blouse in “ecru”. These pieces are mid-priced, so if you need budget-priced pieces, this V-Neck Pintuck Top in “ivory white” and this Black Midi Skirt, both on Amazon, are lovely!
