“Invest in versatile, high-quality basics that you can wear on repeat whether it’s during the week, on the weekend, or dressed up for a night out.” - Cass
What is 1 piece of advice you would give when it comes to investing in wardrobe staples?
Chelsea: Invest in pieces that make you feel like your best self—ones that are well made, versatile, and timeless. Buy less, but better. Focus on timeless pieces made with quality materials and construction—they might cost more upfront, but they’ll last you years and style effortlessly with everything else you own.
Cass: Invest in versatile, high-quality basics that you can wear on repeat whether it’s during the week, on the weekend, or dressed up for a night out. Once I find a fit and style I love, I tend to buy it in multiple colorways because I know it works for me. It really comes down to understanding your proportions and what makes you feel your best. When something fits well and feels good, you’ll naturally reach for it again and again and that’s what makes it a true staple.
How do you see accessories shaping a look?
Chelsea: Accessories have the power to completely shift the vibe of an outfit. They add polish, personality, and often become the element that pulls everything together. Whether it’s a fun gold earring, a belt or a pair of sunglasses, it’s the finishing touch that makes you feel styled without overthinking it.
Cass: For me, it’s all about the art of accessorizing—they are the finishing touches to elevate your look. I typically start with the same outfit formula as my base and then play around with accessories. Since its inception, Aureum has always been about creating statement pieces that take your look to the next level. Accessories truly elevate any outfit and make it easy to repeat the same basic outfit formulas over and over again while still making them feel completely fresh and different every time.
