1. A close-neck T-shirt for layering

A closer neckline creates a "polished" look and works beautifully under both a jumper and a blazer.

2. Versatile fitted ankle boots

The longer shaft makes them the most versatile shoes of all, suiting almost any style of jeans as well as midi skirts. Perfect for both everyday and going out.

5. A suede belt

A small accent with an impressive effect. Add a brown suede belt and bag and your look is instantly finished. A subtle but striking accent that gives your silhouette structure.

6. A suede jacket - outerwear with character

A soft, tactile texture that gives your look warmth and a modern feel.
It works beautifully with both dresses and jeans. It looks expensive but feels comfortable. It can be a great alternative to a denim jacket in your capsule wardrobe.

7. Your perfect pair of dark jeans

A straight cut and a dark shade - versatile, slimming and always in style.
Wear them with anything, from a relaxed top to a structured blazer.

8. Flared trousers - for work or downtime

The slight flare at the ankle visually lengthens your legs and creates a balanced silhouette. Perfect with boots or heels.

9. A suede handbag

Elegant, roomy and stylish. Just big enough to carry everything you need - and still look feminine.

10. Classic loafers - the shoes that "go with everything"

Simple, well made and always in style. Once it gets colder outside, use them as your indoor shoes.

Style tip

If you tuck a shirt into trousers, jeans or a skirt with visible belt loops, always add a belt. It instantly makes you look neater and more finished.
