Let's learn from MS. ANNA WINTOUR...

Her style: Classic - Chic
What it means:

"A Chic will go for clean, sleek lines, but will integrate a hint of the untraditional and the "now" into her outfit to create a personal look."

Basic wardrobe for Classic-Chic:
1. 2 complete suits
2. a pair of basic black pants
3. a short black boot to give her pantsuits some height and attitude
4. three blazers
5. a pair of black heels to wear with skirts
6. a high quality tote

Let's learn from MARY-KATE OLSEN...

Her style: WHIMSICAL/CHIC
What it means:

"This combo enjoys adding a whimsical dash of color to a Chic look of modern elegance."
