Building your style : The basics.

Everyone wants or has their own style, probably. Like a style where you can recognize a person from. I love that, but how do you create your own style? Or what is your style? Don't you know what your style is? That can be a problem too. The following are some basics pieces that can help you create your own style. Because, I think, everything begins with just some nice basic pieces. The key to fill your wardrobe successfully is to buy clothes that work together effortlessly! The items can be a basis for your wardrobe.

1. A Great-Fitting jeans.
A great fitting denim jeans can't be missed in your wardrobe. Haven't found your perfect jeans yet? There absolutely has to be one great  jeans in the world that looks gorgeous on you. I prefer a darker washed denim jeans because they are a little bit more classy. But if you prefer a lighter one then that's fine!

2. White/Black/Grey tanks/tees.
They work under anything, a suit jacket, a blazer, a blouse, you call it! And in summer you can wear them solo. Of course you can also buy one with a nice print.

3. A Blouse.
Some clothes are like forever. And still classy, like the blouse. You can, if you buy a good one, wear it like 10 year long. You can buy just a white classy one, or an oversized one, or one in a beautiful bright color. You can also tuck it into a cute skirt!

4. A little black Dress (LBD)
Black looks good on everybody an you can wear it with anything. If you got a party and you don't really know what to wear you can just wear a LBD! You can add a leather jacket over it, and you've got an edgy outfit. Dress it up, dress it down. This is really a versatile piece of clothing. How you want your dress to look is up to you. The one likes a short one, the other one wants a long dress. Just make sure the dress looks good on your figure!

5. A skirt.
Although not everybody wears a skirt. I think it can be really classy and edgy at the same time. It just depends on how you wear it. You can wear a nice blouse tucked in it, or something else. You choose it!

6. A blazer.
I love this. If you are searching for a perfect one you can search for a simple, classic one or a separate one. Like a boyfriend blazer, oversized one, one in a bright color, one with an embroidery.. anything! Wear it with just a simple T-shirt or a dress, or with a boyfriend jeans. I think this item is indispensable in your wardrobe!

7. Black boots/heels.
You have them in all lenghts: short, medium, tall, over the knee. You can wear them with anything, from skinny jeans to a skirt. It depends on your taste of fashion which one you like. You can't go wrong with black boots/shoes I think. And heels are so classy and feminine... If you can walk on it! So go practice walking on those beautiful high heels that you got before you go outside with them!

8. A coat & (leather)jacket
If you are shopping for a great coat/jacket for the coming season. The most important thing for a coat in the winter is that it keeps you warm. Buy a coat that you love! If it's a red, black, yellow one. It doesn't matter. As long as it keeps you warm and you feel comfortable in it then it's a great coat.
A leather jacket is a cool, edgy garment. Leather is expensive, but it's a long-term investment. If you don't want to or can't pay a real one, then you can always buy a 'fake' leather jacket. I've got one too and I'm loving it.

9. A denim jacket.
Denim denim denim. Everybody wears it. Not only as a jeans but also as a jacket! A denim jacket can really look playful, cool and girly at the same time. You can wear your boyfriend's/brother's/daddy's one for a playful look.

I hope I helped you out with creating your own style. And remember, every style is beautiful, as long as you love it. So don't care what other people think. Wear what you want and if you don't like (as an example) a blazer (because it was in this post) than don't buy one! Only buy things because you love it.
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable in it! 
Love, Sophie
