Why you need it:
A crisp white shirt not only looks classic, it can also freshen up the face by throwing light against it.
How to wear it:
On a classic button up white shirt the shoulder seems should line up with your shoulders. You should also leave at least two buttons undone to reveal a hint of décolletage.
Why you need it:
The little black dress should be sexy, simple and fun. The best thing about it is that it can suit almost any occasion, make you feel and look slimmer and can be used as a great backdrop for statement jewellery.
How to wear it:
Choose the style of dress that suits your shape best. For example the wrap dress is perfect for hugging curves in all the right places while a tight sexy fitted dress is perfect for a slim figure. Remember that the shoulders almost always look good, so the one shoulder look can be a great way to spice up a little black dress.
Why you need it:
A beautifully made suit can make a woman look powerful and in control. The great thing is that you can mix and match pieces with other outfits.
How to wear it:
Try to choose suits without too much over the top detail, this way they will never date. And when choosing a colour try going for a pale pink as it can suit every skin tone.

Why you need it:
A good quality pair of pants are a wardrobe essential because they can be teamed with almost anything and work well.
How to wear it:
The trick to finding the right pants for you is to try and try again. Because different designers use different patterns there are a lot out there, so the key is to keep trying until you find the right style for your shape. But a good pair of fitted black pants will never go to waste in your wardrobe.
Why you need it:
The great thing about wearing a trench coat is that you can often look sexy without actually revealing anything. It’s the perfect casual to dressy coat and almost always looks chic.
How to wear it:
Although most trench coats have a belt, they often look better tied in a loose knot rather than buckled up. If you don’t have much of a waste or feel a bit too bulky with it done up, leave it open. Remember that a trench coat should be longer than the skirt or dress underneath.
Why you need it:
Whether it’s for a casual or formal affair, the maxi dress is a wardrobe staple. They are absolutely comfortable and can be worn in both summer and winter.
How to wear it:
Think twice when pairing a belt with a maxi dress and make sure it doesn’t clutters the silhouette. For short girls, the maxi dress can be a challenge. But if you avoid too much embellishment and choose dresses with a scoop or strapless neckline, your body will appear longer.
Why you need it:
Boots can add glamour to any outfit, if worn in the right way, and are a must have to complete your winter/autumn wardrobe.
How to wear it: Be careful when choosing the boots that best suit your outfit. If you are wearing knee high boots avoid short skirts. Only those who are blessed with great legs should wear ankle books with a short skirt. To elongate your silhouette when wearing boots stick to one shade for your skirt, tights and boots.
