Shop fashion refresher items:
A spring-ready piece of outwear does wonders for your monochrome basics.
Shop basic tees:
T-shirts can wear down very quickly; the hard thing is recognising it. Take time to sift through your basics drawer and replenish the colours and styles that are looking a little drab.
Shop printed dresses:
Having one or two strong printed dresses in your closet can save many a morning. Wear them to a weekend brunch, to the office with a blazer, take them on holiday, restyle one for a wedding... Need we go on?

Shop smart sneakers:
There's nothing better than box fresh trainers to comfortably step into spring. The hard part is keeping them clean. So if your favorite lace-ups are starting to look a little too distressed, it's time to invest in a shiny new pair.
Shop silky scarves:
Printed silk scarves are the perfect accessory to throw on when you're up against it. Tie one around your neck, loop it through your belt loops, or knot it around your bag handle. Any which way you choose to wear it will brighten up your look.

Shop fresh denim:
A fresh pair of denim that fits your body type perfectly can not only make you feel good about yourself, but also about the tops in your closet you once forgot about. Since denim is such a strong basic, you want to be sure you have at least a few pairs that you are loving.

Shop polished handbags:
Do a spring clean on your handbags—clear out the excess rubbish and then downsize to a smart number that doesn't drag an outfit down.
Shop versatile shoes:
Buying heels that are stylish and versatile at the same time is important for a cohesive closet. If that sounds boring to you, look out for neutral styles with points of difference, like chic midi heels or eyelets.
