1. Jeans

You should at least have two different kinds of jeans:

• Your basic jeans that are still stylish, but are just for everyday use
• Your “stop traffic” jeans which are beyond stylish

2. Vests and Plain Tee’s

Vests are great for layering and make an outfit look effortless yet glamorous at the same time. Remember ladies, the more colours the better the variety.

3. Dresses

You should have three kinds of dresses.

• Your basic go to dress for just an ordinary day
• Your show stopper dress for formal events
• Your maxi skirt

 4. Leggings

Every girl has those days where they just want to unleash their inner girly girl; basic leggings will do the trick. They can bring a fun element to your outfit if you pair a plain tee with fun embellished leggings. A great look all year round.

5. Cardigan

For an effortless and cool and relaxed look, cardigans always do the trick. Whether you’re getting dressed for class or going out for movies with friends, a great cardigan can be dressed up or down for the occasion and leave you looking great!

6. Jacket and Coat

Every girl should have a great black long coat for the winter time. For the rest of the year, a girl should have a basic biker leather jacket or a denim jacket. These are essentials that will go with any outfit and can help you bring a “chilled vibe” or “rocker chic” to the outfit.

7. Shoes

Every girl needs to have these basic styles of shoes.

• Trainers (sneakers)
