Chic Style For the City Chick

​Dressing chic in the city is a critical part of fitting in, and standing out at the same time!  It is surprisingly easy too! There are just three words to describe city chic: BLACK, BLACK, BLACK!  No matter what city in what country, black is your best friend. Whether you are going to work, or out with your friends black is always the best option. This classic color will never go out of style, and neither will you!

Putting together your city chic look is easy. Start with a black pea coat. A nice quality black coat will last you your entire life.  Wool is a nice choice, looks classic, and it will keep you warm all winter long. Next, put together a few sexy (but classy) black tops in a combination of materials and styles.  You will need some sleeveless, some short sleeves, a couple ¾ sleeve, and of course, some long sleeves to tuck into your pants or skirt. It is important when shopping for black pants and skirts that they are properly fitted. There is nothing more un-chic than clothes that do not fit you nicely. When looking for skirts, choose a variety of styles: pencil, wool, patterned. They will never go out of style, and look good during all seasons of the year.  You will need two pairs of black pants. Black skinnys for going out with friends or cruising around the city on the weekends is a necessity. A classic, slightly flared pair of black work pants will last you years. If they fit properly, you’ll be the envy of the office.

City chic is fun and easy. If and when you get tired of black (and while loving city chic we doubt you will) throw in a splash of color here or there! Where it is with a scarf, or handbag, chic is what you make it. So rock it woman!
