One of the most important factors I consider when shopping for clothes is whether or not an item can be worn multiple ways. I tend to look for staple pieces that go from business meetings to date nights – plus everything in between. It’s often easier to achieve this in the summer when the weather is more forgiving than in the wintertime. However, you only need a few key winter pieces to transform a look. One of my favorite brands for finding such pieces is BCBGMAXAZRIA. Since my style wavers on the feminine and elevated side, I’m constantly gravitating towards BCBGMAXAZRIA. Every item is always wearable enough for daytime and chic enough for evenings. Plus, the silhouette, fabric and fit always feel so incredible on. Since the year is coming to an end, everyone needs winter pieces that go from day to night or work to weekend. I’ve partnered with Macy’s today to share exactly what those pieces are for me.

Versatile Outerwear

I feel like I can never have enough jackets to get me through winter. They can be worn with anything and instantly dress up even the most casual outfits. If you only pick one outerwear piece, be sure to for a blazer. I love the slit sleeves on the one I’m wearing from BCBGMAXAZRIA. The smart tailoring is great for the office, but it can be belted for a going out look. It’s definitely the easiest way to dress up basics.

Elevated Bottoms

It’s hard to get away wearing dresses and skirts all the time in the winter, so I like to keep a handful of elevated bottoms on rotation. Faux leather pants and wide leg trousers are two of my winter must haves. Leather pants always look so cozy and edgy with chunky knits but stunning with dressier evening pieces. The ones I’m wearing have a glossy finish, which makes it look more elevated, so I’m always reaching for it whenever I’m going out.

Dark Tops

Wearing darker colors always makes an outfit look more expensive and dressy. During the holidays when I’m usually running from one event to the next, I rely on a variety of blouses and sweaters in darker tones to uplift my look. I’m obsessed with BCBGMAXAZRIA’s bodysuits and sweaters, which look so beautiful tucked into wide leg trousers or skirts. They can also be dressed down with a pair of jeans on the weekend.

Sleek Accessories & Footwear

The simplest way to take a look from day to night is adding or swapping out casual accessories and shoes for sleeker styles. Stiletto heels and booties are so chic and the quickest way to change the vibe of your outfit. I love that they can be worn with denim during the day but also with dresses at night.
