No, I am not going to ask you to buy a white shirt and some good blue jeans, although if you don't have them, what do you even wear? I am, instead, going to give you a quick glam makeover with just 5 items you should go and buy immediately - oh well, after the the said blue jeans and a white top.
An Animal Print Blouse
There is seriously nothing more glamourous then an animal print. I have been totally against this in the past but that was before - when I thought I wanted to dress 'less girly' and had other toxic notions of femininity. I digress. Animal print has proved to be a thing that is so classic that it keeps coming back in style every few years. Snake print has been quite in and I have grown tired of looking at it now. I love it, but I still think a leopard print is much more classic. What do you think? Which is your favourite animal print? Meanwhile, go buy this one from Zara.
A Pencil Skirt
You might picture them only at the office, but imagine if everyone wore it on a daily basis, the world would be a much more chic place. They are just the best and so damn flattering! They show off all your curves in the perfect way. And if you have something perfectly tailored for you in the right material, you will want to wear it every single day. This one from Reiss checks all the points because it is of Midi Length, we love that, it cinches you in at the waist, and will not give you any bulges on the sides. Plus its white and will go with everything!
A Pussy Bow Top
Ted Baker always comes through for classic feminine styles. These tops are great for workplace and also for any fancy brunches or holidays you have planned. They eliminate the need for any jewellery, except for maybe a watch for an extra touch. These are such a great way to elevate your look and I definitely would not mind investing in a good one.
A Box Bag
Some company actually gifted my dad a box bag (for mom, lol) which my mom gave to me for an MUN I was attending. It was an extremely striking brown colour bag with gold hardware. I was in love with it. When I was wearing it, everyone noticed and commented on how unique and powerful it looked. Now, box bags are a trend and it is clear why. If you have to buy just one bag to go with everything you wear, make it this one. Unless you can afford a Lady Dior, then buy that one instead. But for everyone else, buy a box bag and thank me when you do.
Nude Mules
I have always been on the team on Black Shoes or White Shoes and nothing else, but recently I have realised the importance of a nude heel. And by heel I mean a mule because they are literally the most comfortable type of shoes ever. Nude heels are very leg elongating as they look like an extension of your skin. They don't have to match your clothes because they match your skin - and here I speak for people who are near my skin shade, not trying to be offensive. They work perfectly well with almost all outfits - making them a thing you can totally invest in.
And that is all friends. Try these out on your next shopping trip and let me know how they make you feel!
