It is so easy to find yourself lost amidst an array of the ever-evolving fashion trends that circulate our newsfeeds and life.  

Half the beauty of fashion is the fun element and experimenting with our style. Just look at the office this morning; all of us were HOOKED on discussing every look from the Met Gala Red Carpet last night - the perfect piece of chewing gum for the brain, I might add.  

And albeit that might be the case, there is a beauty to curating a wardrobe that will stand with you week on week & age timelessly.  

 

As a world that found itself coming through a pandemic and spending months indoors, it gave clarity to the importance of having essential pieces in our wardrobe. It also showed that investing in a basic wardrobe may be more valuable than being a trend-setter or follower.   

 

Of course, it is not always easy to break down what is needed, so a lot of the time I just follow a few simple points:   
  • Keep it neutral so you can inject colour as you please.   
  • Do not undervalue work & casual wear: we spend a lot of life between these two pillars.   
  • Shoes, coats, bags and accessories are all WORTH spending in - think timeless.  

 

Here are  a few basic pieces that I promise will soon become your day-to-day essentials.
