Expert style tips on how to create different looks with a basic wardrobe
1. Invest in various coloured scarves, from small chiffon to pashmina style to create various looks. Factor in the different seasons to make things work appropriately.
2. Wear different kind of shoes with your basics, from flats (whether strappy sandals or doll shoes) for a laid back look, heels and wedges for a dressy look, to brogues for a more preppy look. You can also wear sport shoes that are versatile and not restricted to the gym.
3. Invest in various coloured belts from thin to medium and corseted belts for great cinch.
4. A wide selection of jewellery such as earrings, bangles and neckpieces will give different looks each time you wear them, depending on what look you want to achieve. Alternate with smaller, more classic pieces for days when you want to look more lady-like, demure and/or professional.
5. Different sized bags will give different looks, from clutches for an evening look to totes or cross body bags for daytime events.
6. Break away from your comfort zone and try to combine the same items you've always worn in different ways. Use your staples in different ways to express your sense of personal style.
