The Chief Blonde’s January Favorites
Wardrobe Investment Basics
I was hoping to make a video of all my favorites, but it didn’t happen. So instead, I’ll will just show you my favorite products/fashions/etc. for January via this blog post. Let me know in the comments if you like the feature or would rather I make a video. All items this month are unsponsored, but I will always tell you when they are sponsored. This month my focus is Wardrobe Investment Basics.
The Wardrobe Basic Sunglasses
If you are going to invest in one pair of pricey sunglasses, buy a pair of Ray-ban Wayfarers. These glasses are uber-cool, retro and never wrong. Left to right: Ray-Ban Original Wayfarers ($155 via ) and Ray-Ban Outsiders Oversized Wayfarers ($155 via )
The Wardrobe Basic Black Boots
If you head to NYC this season, you will see these Stuart Weitzman over the knee boot everywhere. ($635 via ). You have to try on a pair of Hunter Rain boots just one time to understand why these rain boots are superior in every way to the cheap ones. ($158 via ). These days everyone needs a short black bootie, these British inspired moto-vibed boot Rocket Dog Camilla ($69 via) will be smashing with your favorite moto-jacket and leggings or paired with a edgy skirt.
Wardrobe Basics The Black Tote
I am not a huge purse fan. That’s why you’ll almost always see me carrying this tote from Michael Kors. It’s elegant, has pockets and goes with everything. With only one purse, I have more money to spend on shoes. YEAH! ( $295 via Shopbop)
Favorite Consignment Store for picking up Wardrobe Basics
Fashion Project is a designer clothing donation site where you can donate clothes and a substantial portion of sales goes to your designated charity. You can also buy donated clothes and a majority portion of your purchases go to the charity selected by the donor. It’s such a win-win site and the DEALS ARE INSANE! Many great items from J.Crew, Banana Republic, Coach, Joie, etc. many items are $5. Psst…Watch for their sales, the deals get even sweeter! Wait…What? Here’s my invite link . Below you will see just one of the items I have bought this year (most under $10!).
Update: This favorites post originally had a giveaway attached. The Rafflecopter entry device has been removed and had 7762 entries. See Giveaway Winners.
I need a new vacuum, so something about that would be great!
I definitely think there should be more fashionable full-figured clothing.
I don’t see any hairstyles, so I am confused by the prompt! But my favorite basic item is definitely a black boot. I live in Florida and it doesn’t get very cold, but I still love wearing my stylish boots in the winter.
Sorry about that Stacy. I fixed the issue but will count your comment of course!!
I am not able to see any photos. Thank you so much for all the great chances to win.
I like doing a french twist or a blow out so I have a lot of volume and pinning a few pieces back.
I do not see any hair styles.
I love learning about skin care, make up and hair care products.

The basic Black Tote is just my style! I am always on teh hunt for the “perfect” bag !
Hmm. I’d be cool with posts about anything but I think I’d prefer household products, and like health/wellness stuff? With beauty/skincare/etc maybe included in there.
