I cleaned out my closet in February and felt that some staple wardrobe pieces were missing. I went on the hunt for white button down shirts, some new jeans, striped shirts and A-line dresses. I came, went and conquered, and picked up some pieces in the past three months. I mostly shopped online and purchased items from places like Urban Outfitters, Asos, H&M, Forever 21 and Topshop. For a full list of items including links to those still available, feel free to scroll down to the section below the video.
This haul can be summed up in 10 words: stripes, black, white, grey, monochrome, navy, jeans, shirts, ankle boots, and a hint of color. In other words, I purchased mostly basic, staple pieces that I can wear hopefully for a long time to come. I did throw in a few pieces that are a bit more interesting and fun. If you think the items are a bit too samey, that’s okay. But this is exactly what my wardrobe needed: a good influx of basic items and patterns and very much in line with my wishlist, which I posted 2 weeks ago.
