Everygirl that goes to college should have some basic black items that can be dressed up or down...and no matter the girls personal style they can find pieces to suit them:

simple black dress
black skirt
black pants- from gap kind to dressier trousers
black sweater
black blazer
some basic black and white shirts- from tanks to dressier
black bra (a necessaity with black attire)
a pair of black dressy shoes (heals are of course the best, but flats are good as well)


with those pieces, you are ready for almost any event-from funeral, to job interview, to dissertation, to date, to dinner at a profs house

add accessories to fit personality and you are set

a black clutch
some scarves
a few necklaces
a larger bag
a leather (can be $11 from target) portfolio for papers, resumes

and if a girl says, well, I just don't care so much about clothes and being girlie or whatever, these basics work for them and actually make life pretty easy

that is my mommy advice for the day
