All white arrthang

I love white! It is possibly my favourite colour to wear because it is crisp, classy and versatile. The trend of wearing white-on-white comes and goes in the fashion world, but I personally think it should be a consistent staple. The difficulty with wearing two different white pieces in one outfit is that you have to get the correct shade of white for both, or two different textures of white pieces. Lace and linen, for example, is a beautiful combination.

It is a huge fashion faux pas if you wear white with off-white or cream. I know Kim K has tried it but I personally think it looks tacky if you are not wearing designer brands from head to toe. Whether it is a pair of white tailored shorts with a white top or a pair of white skinny jeans with a white blazer, there are many white-on-white variations. When wearing a full white outfit it is best to add simple accessories such as a tan/leather handbag or black strappy heels. A leopard print detail is also very stylish.

Wardrobe Essentials

My style is kind of preppy/minimalist, and I stick to black, white, navy and a splash of colour in accessories on most days. I wouldn't call myself the most daring individual when it comes to fashion, I like to stick to what I know I look good in.

This is my personal list of what I think every girl should have in her closet. These essentials never go out of fashion and can be paired with almost anything. They are the go-to items you should own that will never let you down. Make sure that you invest in good quality pieces that fit perfectly, and buy cheaper seasonal accessories to accompany them.

The White Shirt
This goes without saying, top of the list! A crisp white shirt is without fail the most important item to own. It goes with anything and everything and can be tucked in, layered or accessorized. You will look instantly classy, and effortlessly stylish.

Oh what I would give for the perfect white button front shirt that actually fit in the bust.......
