One wardrobe basic that everyone should own is a good old
shirt. I’m not talking of the skool shirt kind, but a stylish designer or high
street number that has the ability to enhance or complete a fashion forward
look.
When it comes to plumping out the wardrobe, I’m a firm believer in the notion 'buy less choose well'…well that’s if
you can afford it! Shopping for clothes or key piece items like bags and shoes I'd always go designer. Why? If you choose designer pieces that are timeless
and classic, you will always get that substantial cost per wear out of the item, meaning that
you can wear them with multiple looks season after season. Most high street picks just don't last! Yes, you may end up
with only a few pieces in your wardrobe, but quality over quantity, where the craftsmanship, design disciplines and fabrics sourced for designer clothes are just unequivocal to its high street number.
Shirts are that piece that you can style endlessly, there not a piece you have
to savour for your most sartorially sophisticated outings but it’s piece you can bring out and entwine into your everyday repertoire, where you can achieve looks that ooze that avant-garde aesthetic.
Whether you want to rock leather cropped trousers or tracksuit style joggers, pair a shirt with these kind of looks and instantly lend
your ensemble that understated chic appeal, where you can opt for style picks
that are unique in design with the most distinctive contemporary cuts and
adornments.
