I get bored with my closet a lot so I've done a lot of research to find ways to upgrade my outfits without breaking the bank.

Eventually, I found some closet staples that I think can really make an outfit look really put together, without a lot of effort or cost.

Here are some closet staples you should invest in this fall to style your outfits in a whole new way.

A long-sleeve shirt

With the weather getting colder, I sometimes find myself disappointed that I can't wear my favorite oversize T-shirt outside anymore. As a solution, I've started layering and adding a long-sleeved shirt underneath and it is a total game-changer. Suddenly, I'm able to take advantage of so much more of my closet by just adding a simple layer.

There's something about wearing a belt that makes your outfit look so much more put together.

Whether it's a shirt or sweater, nothing says fall better than a cute turtleneck. They're super cozy and look great with any jacket or pair of jeans. Bonus points if you wear stacked necklaces on top!

This is another example of how layering is one of the best ways you can transform pieces in your closet. Wearing a collard shirt under a crewneck has become a pretty popular trend lately, and I can definitely see why.

This super simple addition can make your outfit look completely different, giving you yet another way to wear your favorite crewneck.

Oversized Blazer

Wearing an oversized blazer as a jacket can take your outfit from plain to classy in no time. I've found some really cute and casual blazers that I wear over everything now. Even with a simple top and jeans, this blazer makes you look so put together and stylish.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
