9 pieces | 9 outfits… summer!

It's no surprise WHY these 9 for 9 posts are always well received.  We all want to simplify, we all want to make getting dressed fun and easy, we all want to look and feel our best… and I would bet that for most of us we don't have a ton of time or money to make these things happen.  My 9 pieces | 9 outfits posts pull together what we all desire most for our wardrobes. Beauty and simplicity.  The holy grail in getting dressed each day.

When pulling together a seasonal wardrobe (or even packing list for a trip) that mixes and matches easily the key is to choose a tight but flexible color scheme. For today's summer version I chose chambray, white and a pop of color as the basis of the looks (you could swap this yellow skirt for pink, red or green if you aren't into yellow).  The color scheme is tight blue/white/yellow but also flexible in that these colors got well with a multitude of other colors or pieces you always have in your wardrobe. You won't ever get stuck making outfits when you have plenty of neutral and flexible pieces on hand. Then adding in simple and beautiful accessories to pull the looks together is the final piece of the puzzle. Always have on hand some beautiful shoes, handbags and jewelry to make the looks come to life!

I hope you enjoy these summer looks! And for you die-hard 9 for 9 fans (I know you are out there!) read on for a great resource I have pulled together to help make getting dressed each morning even easier…
