One of the key components of my Minimalist French Wardrobe is a comfortable Philosophy sweater in a neutral color. Here I have styled it simply with black pants and shoes. Post contains affiliate links.
French Minimalist Wardrobe A Neutral Sweater
I thought that I would share with you one of the workhorses of my French Minimalist Wardrobe - a slightly oversized neutral Philosophy sweater. I absolutely love this sweater. It is a soft neutral beige/taupe color. It is cotton, so here in Southeast Tennessee, I can wear it fall, winter and spring. It can be dressed up or down.
This time I have paired it with some cropped black Jules & Leopold pants from Steinmart. For shoes, I opted for the super comfortable black lace ups from Clarks. This is a great casual look, very minimalist, and comes together in a snap.
For something little different, I've decided to wear this same sweater for 3 posts in a row. Next week, I will dress it up a bit, and then on the third week it will be back to a casual look. This is what I love about a small wardrobe, the ease at which you can mix and match. There is no stress. This is very loosely based on a the French Minimalist Capsule Wardrobe from Classy Yet Trendy.
Also, my orchid is blooming. And, Luxie says hi.

I love the posts with Luxie saying hello and posing with you. That's a great sweater and I look forward to seeing you changes looks with it.
Work has been crazy so I haven't been updating my sites or visiting at all. Forget Instagram, I haven;t been in awhile and I love that site! Maybe things will calm down.
