We all have our favorite looks, but with a few key ideas; you can put a fresh spin on your basic wardrobe.   These combinations of colors and silhouettes can give you an updated look without compromising your pocketbook.

• Whether for work or weekend, add a belt to a boyfriend sweater or blazer giving it a more polished look and showing off your waistline. Belts are huge this season, in all different widths, but must be worn on the true waist to be the trend.  (You can go for wide belts on a long torso, but skinnier belts should be worn with a shorter torso.)
• Make a statement with a tailored, yet casual suit this spring.  By keeping it relaxed but sophisticated, the unstructured suit gives you a natural polished look.
• Think bold with a pair of colored jeans.  Keep the look simple, but sexy, with a tissue-thin tee.  This bright combination is fun and can update your look.
• Compliment brightly colored pieces with a gleaming pair of gladiator sandals.  They are this season's must-have and a great look with shorter dresses for spring.
• If you have plenty of neutral colored pieces in your closet, you will liven up the entire outfit by adding a bright colored accessory.  Go for a bold splash of fuchsia, cobalt blue, yellow, or green to stand out among natural colors.
• Updating your wardrobe doesn't need to break the bank and can be done with one spectacular pair of bold shoes to wear with the basic colors already stocked in your wardrobe.   Go for any color in patent leather to animal or python-print flats to get you places this season.
