I can’t tell you how often I think about adopting a “uniform” look of sorts. Its genius really. Think of the time one would save wondering what to wear with that new blazer, or what color belt you have to match that new Hermes scarf. If you think thats fashion sacrilege, think again. Ever seen Tom Ford wearing a plaid shirt?

Karl Lagerfeld in a blue blazer and khakis? Carolina Herrera in red blouse? Marc Jacobs in ummmm, pants? They’re clearly on to something. These are people who design beautiful clothes, in many styles and colors, but that all ends where their closets begin. If you really think about it, this is style distilled to its essence.
