ESSENTIALS

Here's a little guide to help you if you're planning to have a wardrobe makeover. I've listed a few must-haves in your wardrobe. Keep these in mind when you'll go out shopping as it'll help build your wardrobe and you can continue doing so from then on. I'll also include the shops that I recommend you go to when looking for these items. Remember, it's only a recommendation so you don't necessarily have to buy it in that certain store.

Plain tees - Get a few oversized ones in white, black and gray. They're really comfy and go with literally everything. It's great to stock up on these. Also try buying ones in different textures. They make a huge difference, trust me.
Where to find: H&M. Acne. ASOS. Topshop.


Camisoles - Whether you get the plain or printed ones, it'll still look really cute! Perfect for hot summer days.
Where to find: Topshop. ASOS.



Black jeans - I own a pair of H&M and I wear them all the time. They're really versatile so whatever you pair it up with, your outfit would still look good!
Where to find: H&M. Acne. Topshop.


Distressed baggies/boyfriend jeans - I personally love the ripped ones because they have this edgy feel to it. They're great to throw on during your lazy days. They make it seem like you spent a lot of time on your outfit when you really didn't. Just pair it with a plain white tee, sunglasses and chunky sandals and you're good to go! I'm currently eyeing a pair from One Teaspoon.
Where to find: One Teaspoon. Stradivarius. Topshop. Nasty Gal. ASOS.


Boots - Chelsea boots. Comfy and versatile. Need I say more?
Where to find: ASOS. Topshop. Doc Martens.


Chunky Sandals - Seeing them all over Tumblr made me fall in love with them. Windsor Smith makes the best ones though they're pretty pricey. I haven't seen any other brand who sells chunky sandals but if I do, I'll let you guys know!
Where to find: Windsor Smith. Jeffrey Campbell. ASOS.

Sneakers - I absolutely love my pair from Converse and wear them all the time. Superga also makes really nice ones.
Where to find: Converse. Superga. ASOS.


Sunglasses - These are your best friend when you're too lazy to fix yourself up or running late for something. They instantly cover up tired eyes and make you look sassy. *z-snap*
Where to find: Sunnies by Charlie. ASOS. Nasty Gal.

Skinny rings - Ones with various circumferences are the best because you can experiment with them when stacking on your fingers. These are usually sold in sets. I recommend getting a set of plain ones and another set of detailed/designed ones.
Where to find: H&M. ASOS. Nasty Gal.

  2. I've been thinking about getting a wardrobe makeover since I noticed that I've been wearing the same clothes again and again and leaving all the other to rot. Cons of being an impulse shopper, I guess. Since I'm pretty clueless on what I should stock up on, this is such a huge help, for the pieces are both plain yet very versatile and makes such a statement.Thanks!
