"My new basic but not-so-basic jeans are Frame’s heritage denim Le Sylvie in the Halston wash. High-waisted is key for a leg-lengthening silhouette, and when you're 5'1", super-high is where I head. With an 11-inch rise, they make my legs look long, and the wash and fit exudes '70s style whilst still retaining a basic everyday-jean vibe."
"Worth the splurge. I live in my black kitten-heeled Manolo Blahnik pumps. They go with literally everything from jeans to dresses and from day to night. I like to pair mine with other basics: the above Frame jeans, a black turtleneck, trench coat, and a slick of red lippy!"
"I own in both black and white. An essential for layering under dresses, jumpsuits, blazers, and fabulous all on its own."
"I own in both black and brown. I love to pair with dresses and cropped denim. Year-round staple. Super-comfortable block heel. Can be worn day or night!"
"A classic staple to wear with over just about everything in your closet—love paired with jeans to serve up the trendy denim on denim look."
"I literally live in mine! They are so versatile and fun for a casual day look or a night on the town."
"I always wear a camisole, whatever I’m wearing. In fact, I don’t feel dressed unless I’m wearing one! I have stacks and stacks and they all serve for beneath different items in my wardrobe."
"A blazer has forever been my go-to jacket. A few years after leaving school it quickly became my uniform again and remains so. I have shrunken ones, longline ones, double-breasted ones—all varieties—and they are such a handy overgarment for dresses as well as jeans. Mango does fantastic blazers every season."
"I have dozens of jeans and the majority are by Mother Denim. Super-comfy denim, great cut, and fab cropped styles. I don’t think you can ever have too many pairs of jeans."
"I love layering, and a cardigan is the easiest way to do this. Iris & Ink at The Outnet has the best cashmere basics of really good quality, and I’m super fussy on feel and also cut when it comes to cashmere."
"There is nothing sexier than a classic jean that fits your peach perfectly. It’s a timeless staple."
"Throwing a little crew-neck over a tee, tying it around your waist, or throwing it in your bag is always a smart move. Anyone that knows us knows that leopard is a staple. Combining that with a basic crew-neck makes for the perfect sweater."
"We will forever love a good Mary Jane. They pair well with everything."
