The Morning You Realize One Rail Is Enough

The Morning You Realize One Rail Is Enough

One rail in the wardrobe leaves no room for guesses. This set is four pieces that work as a base: a button down shirt, high rise flare jeans, a belted double breasted coat and low heel ankle boots. They are for anyone with a small closet, a small budget and a plan to wear things often.

  1. The ankle boots for a quick zip and out the door morning

    These ankle boots have a faux suede upper with faux leather lining and fine grosgrain piping. The stacked heel is 2 inch, the sole is flexible and non slip, and the insole is padded with memory foam. An inside zipper makes them easy to get into. The 2.75 inch shaft sits low under a flare hem.

  2. The flare jeans for a Friday evening with your good heels

    The jeans are high rise with a wide leg flare, fading and whiskering. The fabric is 73% cotton, 14% rayon, 11% polyester and 2% spandex, so there is some stretch. They close with a zip fly and button, have five pockets, and are machine washable. The distressing is a matter of taste.

  3. The trench coat for the cold walk to the bus stop

    The coat is 100% polyester faux wool, double breasted with a wide notch lapel and a belt. Length falls mid thigh to knee depending on height. It is a fashion coat for cool weather, not made for extreme cold or rain. Machine washable, and a light steam handles any creases from packaging.

  4. The crisp shirt for a Monday that needs to go well

    The shirt is a long sleeve button down in US regular fit, and the seller offers a size chart to check before ordering. The fabric is not very thick, so light colors may be a little see through. It may arrive wrinkled from vacuum packaging, and a quick steam iron restores it.
