Recently a girlfriend asked me, what would be my recommendations for key pieces for this Summer? What would be the key pieces that I think would be best to have, that could interact with each other and give you multiple outfit choices? For me, the essentials I have in my wardrobe for Summer are always;
Whenever I am shopping I try to consider what I already have in my wardrobe and how my new piece can intermingle with my existing clothes.
For the pieces below I have chosen colours and styles that I know will work for me, and that will work together. You can use the same principle by choosing clothes in a colour that flatters and styles that will work with your bodyshape. For help on what suits your bodyshape check out my page Dress for your Shape.
Also check out my Shoes and Accessories pages for the latest Summer shoes, bags, and jewellery. You can also see the fit of a couple of the tops and the maxi dress in My Look of the Week.
