Staking her style claim today is Emily James, wardrobe recycler on ASOS Marketplace.
My look has been the same for years: a silk t-shirt and skinny trousers, a blazer, patent flats. Accessories go no further than one long gold necklace or a skinny belt. My palette is neutral; I won’t make a colour combination more daring than black with navy.
The logic behind it is simple – it’s economical, and I get bored easily. Why clutter my wardrobe with prints when a white t-shirt never gets old?
I approve of this season’s ‘90s aesthetic – narrow silhouettes, luxe fabrics, limited jewellery. It means versatility – the cashmere cardigan which looks professional in a meeting but will keep you warm on a flight. It means precision – buying one perfect camel coat instead of three new dresses. This winter, I’ll continue to keep it minimal.
