With all that in mind, keep scrolling to check out a range of staples Wright relies on in her day to day, complete with visual and shopping inspiration.

"A slightly oversized, longer wool coat seriously updates every outfit you own—this one by Topshop is a great option." — Wright 

"Probably the number one most worn item in my closet! Stylish and comfy, you can wear white sneakers with everything from jeans to jumpsuits to knit dresses. So easy!" 

"A knit dress is a bit more elevated than your typical denim outfits. Pair with sneakers for a casual vibe, or throw on a blazer for a more polished look." 

"This isn’t necessarily a new item, but it deserves a re-visit. It literally works with every single item in your closet to make the perfect, casual outfit."

"Faux leather is flattering on absolutely everyone. Plus, it’s a great way to add a little edge to your look!"

"I know it sounds kind of boring, but it’s one piece everyone could consider owning. It’s an effortless way to get a bit more dressed up." 

"This trilogy of accessories—a stylish handbag, cool sunglasses, and great jewelry—is the finishing touch to every outfit. I wear this combo with everything, no matter how casual … even workout clothes!"
