Maybe we're creatures of habit, but being on the receiving end of every fleeting trend always seems to make us gravitate to love-worn staples all the more. Navy blue blazers, moto boots, and sailor tops will just never get tired in our book, but it's always smart to find styling inspiration for wearing your old standbys in new ways. That's why we've taken a particular fancy to these five ladies—women who've managed to give a few tried-and-true classics a little twist. Mixing hot-pink tights with a school-boy blazer or a cropped fur jacket with a preppy bateau top not only feels fresh but it's a fun way to get some extra mileage out of your oldies but goodies. Like those pink summer trousers you hate to pack up come September? Now with a pair of
high-heeled buckle boots, a long cozy sweater, and leather biker jacket, you don't have to.
