One of my favorite things to wear are these American Apparel U-neck long sleeve dresses. Great for those moments when you feel like you have nothing to wear (and I tend to feel like that a lot for some reason). I recently ordered a couple more of the same dress- they've become almost like a t-shirt in my closet! Definitely thinking about getting one in a different color! Worn with a Lanvin feathersuede jacket, vintage jewelry and embossed leather clutch, and YSL imperial pumps.
What's the one thing in your closet you don't mind wearing over and over again??

If YOU feel like you have nothing to wear what hope do the rest of us have?!
And when in doubt I tend to throw a black blazer over anything and everything.

love this look, classic and carefree! And im finally able to see your new hair color. It wasnt so noticeable in other pics.
There was a time I bought a simple long sleeved top from Cotton On in all the colours available because it has such a nice fit and really comfortable. But then after a while I felt like I was wearing the same thing all the time, usually happens a lot in Winter time haha.
I love the sytle and the colours! you look brilliant
:)

the blazer and the shoes is perfect!

Wow! Would love to see more of that clutch- is it vintage?? I have never bought one of those, for some strange reason...feel like I should!
Your new hair is gorgeous.
I guess for me that thing is a pair of canvas toms shoes. Pretty boring, but I've been wearing them to run around since 2006! I've killed at least 10 pair.

gorgeous look from u again.:)
i dont mind to wearing my long skirt once a week.
hehe:)

I own one! :) The AA dress is one of the handiest pieces you can have in your closet.
musingsofastarr.blogspot.com
love your new cut/color.
I tend to fall back on a blazer and t-shirt.
HOT! Plain colors done right! I really like the length of the blazer.. perfect. Almost like a blazer-trench. And your hair looks great under the sun! :)
Hmmm... I have this cream Forever 21 dress that I don't mind wearing over and over again (and I think I have!). It just slips on without hassle, and the fitting is just PERFECT.

http://infashionrehab.blogspot.com/

I love those u-necks also, they make me feel constantly sexy because they are so nice fitting. Love the idea to pair it with this gorgeous oversized blazer!
The one item in my wardrobe I don't mind wearing over and over are my tunic t-shirts and skinny jeans. I love doing the side tuck with my shirts :) Great post!
Umm I wish it were something in your closet. ;) This spring it's definitely my light denim jeans. I cuff them and wear them all week long.
xx,
Dee
you look great.. awesome shoes.. and yeah, those basic dresses are really helpful when you don't feel like putting together a new ensemble to wear.. or not even that.. they're helpful all the time, you can mix them up with anything
Love the dress. In my closet, I tend to recycle my little cardis with dresses :)
a good pair of cutoffs, and you're such a blazer girl i love it!
Boots! When in doubt, I throw on some boots (summer's hard for me).
They make your outfit a little more dressed up and boots with heels are still comfortable because you have the ankle support.
I love these dresses too...except I'm so tall that they are SOOOO super short on me...so I find myself awkwardly pulling it down most of the day. Wish it were just a tad longer. Looks great. x
I find myself wearing my blazers over and over... Nice look.
the most incredible outfit! siply & perfect. ( i can wear whit t-shirt and blach mini over and over again!)
I love the entire look. As always.
i have this black long sleeve blouse that I pair with anything.
Nice picture. Ciao.
love this! and one thing I don't mind wearing over & over again is my foley+corrina bag :)

love your blazer outfit!!
my moschino belt- and some of my dresses.- that are gonna be with me for life.
great outfit. the shoes are really divine.
xx ediot
Love your outfit! One thing that I wear over and over again is usually my blazers since I can dress them up or down, depending on the occassion.
http://flashfashfash.blogspot.com
i love those U neck dresses. i have 4 colours :P this outfit is so you circa 2008!! been a fan for a while now hehe xx
http://belx.wordpress.com
That blazer is perfection! I love the same long sleeve dresses that you do, I have them from H&M and they have saved so many mornings from disasters... Perhaps I'll buy a few more...
I like to throw on a man's white button down shirt over a pair of jeggins, then complete the look with a huge necklace. This outfit is one I have donned on "blah" days countless times. :) I love your blazer and dress!
i love your shoes...and the color is beautiful!
i cant live without my leather jacket...i got it almost 3 years ago and i still wear it at least 3 times a week!

Great staple ;)

Karla stunning, so late 80s/90s i love it, your hair looks great and the colour of your clutch mathces your shoes perfectly.banging figure.
For me it's always a long black cardigan, when im not in the mood to try i just put it on and i look put together, also a u-neck dress, with a flannel shirt or cardigan and if im going out a black over size blazer. Jeans is always a staple piece, not always comfotable but it works.
I love having some classic pieces - for me, the one item that never grows old is a vintage grey wollen Jaeger jumper that I bought in a charity shop. It's incredibly comfy, versatile and quite classic in shape.
That Lanvin blazer is so gorgeous - I love the muted colour.

Love the shoes Karla :D

You look amazing! Very chic :)
Loooove the clutch!!

http://delightfulbitefuls.blogspot.com/
When I have nothing to wear I throw on an A. Wang t shirt or dress, or this 70s black dress by Chloe that I found for 100 bucks.
You look amazing! So chic and elegant! The shoes are killer!
When I have nothing to wear I put on a simple dress with my leather jacket...always works.

I bought a nude blazer 2 weeks ago and it definitely the thing i m always wearing, it goes with everything : sweater, dress, skirt ... and it makes my outfits look more springy .
Love the shoes :)
http://chocolatecheap.blogspot.com/
My cropped blazers are always with me when I can't think of what to put on. I've started to ruin the lining on the inside...
Karla you look Gorgeous Your blazer is so beautiful and these shoes...just Perfect!
Black leggings, biker boots.
I don't mind wearing a black blazer Balmain-like or a passepartout shirt.
Love the clutch!

You are so beautiful woman!
a great simple and chic outfit. With your touch on it of course, you look great Karla.
Great! To be honest my all time favourite in my closet are jeans. Could't live without them!
Monika from J'adore Fashion
This is a wonderful outfit! You look stunning! ;-)
Definitely a blazer! =]
Wicked embossed leather clutch! =PP
love the outfit :) & the blaser is beautiful
I've heard those dresses really ride up your ass when you walk, and that's the only reason I've never purchased them. Is it true, or do they stay put?
Oh, and yeah, I LOVE the look! Definitely something I would wear! I really like how the blazer is longer than the dress, it gives an interesting sense of proportion.
the clutch is fabulous!
You look great :)

You look really good in that outfit.
I have some dresses like yours, and I agree with you, they're very useful when you don't know what to wear.
I love your shoes and bag. Great job.

For me? My skinny jeans and my black blazer. Never fails! Cute outfit...not sure if I could pull off such a short dress, but you definitely do!
vintage silk tank tops, i have one literally in every color so when i'm really in a hurry i just yank one out, put on a blazer and go. It's good to have staples that look great in any situation!
brogues brogues brogues till the bitter end! They possibilities are endless with them - ck :) x
beautiful, i adore your shoes!!
www.mode-damour.blogspot.com
gorgeous!
Love the outfit. Mine's a maxi dress. Too bad summer in England lasts way too short.
I love the U neck long sleeve American Apparel Dress! I have it too! Definitely in black. I love it! I have a bit more of a curvy frame so i have to be careful with how i wear it, and your blazer inspires me to get one! (pretty much all your outfits have been screaming for me to get an awesome blazer) a chunky knit sweater also does the trick too! another awesome outfit Karla!
gosh i am obsessing over this outfit :) love the blazer

LOVE your shoes :)
clutch + shoes = A+!!!
My favorite pieces to wear are my Marc by Marc Jacobs black thick knit cardi and AA thigh highs. The AA thigh highs are the best! They never slide down the leg!
i always wear baggy boyfriend jeans. Sooo comfi.
My denim jacket!!
Allanita
My black double breasted blazer! It goes with everything!

Love the pumps!
I don't mind wearing over and over my little black dress.
Classy.
Leggings, best thing in the world
Also a big fan of the u-neck dresses - so great.
I have a black blazer that I wear with everything, I think that's definitely one of my go-to's
That blazer is freakin' sweet. Awesome find. That stone wall is gorgeous, btw.

Love those shoes!
My one thing that i seem to wear over and over again is a scarf i got from the sweetest little shop in italy and it just seems to go perfect witth any outfit!
That shirt dress looks great on you! Not sure it could work on my since I am almost 6 feet tall... it would be a bit scandalous looking.
Love your jacket!
White shirts are a big staple in my closet. I have maybe 6 or 7 in different lengths, cuts and fabrics.
Those red shoes threw the whole outfit off.
Wow, those shoes are awesome!!!! You look uber chic, I love your blog.
Really cute outfit!
And I would die for that clutch..

Looovely blazer.
My go-to items when I feel like being a slob-in-style are that perfectly slouchy white, sheer tee + my favourite skinnies + a tailored, sharp-shouldered black blazer. Safe, comfortable and hassle-free. And leaves a lot of room for accessorisation!
j'adore !
The outfit is just perfect! I love the blazer. The thing I wear over and over again is my favorite pair of Boyfriend Jeans.
love that blazer!
I have similar;)

i went to walmart one day for bleach, and i wandered over to the clearance section and found all of these adorable puffed, short sleeved turtlenecks for $3 each. so i grabbed one in every color they had. theyre light enough to wear in the spring, and i'm a little obsessed with turtlenecks. hee hee
Looking for a blazer like this! Beautiful!!

And I totally love your shirt! I want one too, going to order it soon I think :D
By the way, I also love your blazer!

I totally understand you. I always feel I have nothing to wear during school time XD I usually go for leggins and really long tshirt or top. Anyway, your outfit is amazing as usually, I'm in love with your shoes.
Kisses from Italy
Okay, you seem to have awesome taste in shoes ;o
I'm gonna say my stripy t's; you can accessories them with long necklaces or pearls etc and it'll change the look completely (:

Lurrrrve it and those shoes are amazing!!!
i love these YSL pumps. I currently can't live without my new fave item: a pink vintage looking Minnie Mouse t-shirt. silly and fun.
http://cupcakestand.blogspot.com/
I share your love for blazers..they make any outfit look chic and sophisticated..
Your clutch is BEAUTIFUL !
You look GORGEOUS in these pics! Love the whole look... nothing to wear my a$$ ha ha.. I also have a black 3/4 length sleeve dress that goes with everything, black leggings and a short sleeve drapey off white cardi - best items EVER!
For me it would be my black turtleneck mini dress, works wonderfully as a top, a dress, dressed up or down. Best of all it was only 3 bucks from a warehouse sale. :)
Looking lovely Karla.
GREAT outfit*

I have this very cheap black t-shirt that I don't mind wearing over and over again. It's super soft and comfortable.
i agree about AA being good for those "nothing to wear" moments. their stuff is so versatile and goes with more beautiful pieces. keep it up karla, loving the blog!

Hmmm... can it be shoes? Because I would definitely say my leopard print ballet flats.
LOVE THAT BLAZER!
that last photo of you is amazing
and karla is back!
i have been disappointed with some of your past looks, but this is really cute :)
love the gray-black-brown combo,
and how you post frequently!!!
and I can wear my blk leather jacket over and over again but shhhhh! dnt tell anyone =)
I know it's just a grey jacket, but it looks so luxurious. Maybe its the suede? Did you get it tailored? Thrifted blazers rarely fit me just right, I always have to do something with the shoulder pads or the tops of the sleeves, wah!
To answer your question, I have this Phillip Lim muscle-T (lol) that I wear to death, and also the AA U-neck short sleeved dress in the burgundy color. So easy to wear!
Yes! This is in the direction back to the "old Karla" I was talking about!
what an amazing clutch! love the color!!! :O

Nice dressed-down look ;)
I can't go without my grey skinny jeans that have a little bit of that washed out effect on them. Unfortunately they're now waiting to be repaired, but I can't wait to wear them again and again. Grey just goes with pretty much everything and you can dress them up or down - sneakers, heels, oldschool blazers, blouses, necklaces - I can wear them with whatever look I want!

I thought you were going to say that that blazer was a staple; it's GORGEOUS. I have a black blazer that is actually part of one of my school suits that I wear to death - it's ancient, machine washable and cheap as chips, but I wear it with everything.
the colors of jacket and shoes mix very well
www.intuitioncouture.blogspot.com
you have every time such pritty shoes that my heart starts beating like a crazy when I imagine myself having them in my closet. :D And as always you look super stylish!

the new hair color suits you! I love me some AA too, it's the new urban-classic!

Lol the one thing I never mind wearing repeatedly is funny you should say this but my american aparel u dress short sleeve. I have two I bought one a long time ago and wore it so much I bought another. when the long sleev u dress came out (like yours) I considered buying so many of them (all the colors, and transparent ones too) but was a little low on cash. It is my favorite and I love wearing those dresses sometimes I'll wear them with baggy jeans as a shirt!
your shoes are hilarious! I MEAN IT!
love that purse, makes the outfit :)
xx
I dont mind wearing my fave leather jacket many times...Cause I love it :)
love the look!
i don't mind wearing a black or gray v-neck for every day. you can wear it with ANYTHING. (okay....almost anything.)
That's so weird. First: this winter I practically lived in my grey AA U-neck long sleeved dress. I agree: you can wear them so many different ways.
2nd, it's uncanny. Check this out:

One of my favourite pieces right now is a black jacket!
i gotta tell you that this is the best post ever! I mean it's kind of simple and chic, but you look stunning and amazing! The dress is perfect and you are just gorgeous :)!
genious blazer!!!:)))
Love the heels and the clutch.
I like to rock my light wash denim skinnies. They feel great and work with so many pieces I have.
Love the outfit in the post the color combination is perfection and those shoes are delicious. Well done.
This look is perfection!
