MY MOTHER WORSHIPPED AT THE ALTAR OF THE ACCESSORY

-

I GUESS I INHERITED THE BUG.

She taught me a simple but invaluable lesson. She always said that if you invest in a few well-made classic pieces in good fabrics—like a little black dress—and put your money into accessorie­s, you’ll have a million different outfits.

I’ve always followed that adivce, perhaps to what some people might consider an extreme, but I dress for myself so I’ve never given other people’s opinions a second thought.
