This weekend, I am going to be going through my wardrobe and putting away all of my jumpers; ready to make room for all of my summer clothes and anything new that I am bound to buy too. Doing this chore twice a year can be a little loathsome, but with some good music and black bin bags to the rescue, it can be made fun too.
Slogan Tees
I wear slogan tees quite often and have quite a lot in my wardrobe. I find they are mega easy to style; whether it's with some jeans or tucked into a skirt or shorts. I also wear them a lot on holiday on top of swimwear if I am nipping to the shops or walking to the beach. They're really versatile pieces to have in your wardrobe.
Lingerie and Underwear
I am forever wearing and styling new lingerie and have no problem in spending my money on new bits every now and then. Think of underwear to be like moisturising before adding foundation to your face. If you don't moisturise, then your foundation won't apply nicely. So, if you're wearing a bra that is too big for your or knickers that are too tight on your hips; you're going to not only feel rubbish about yourself, but it will feel right underneath your clothes.
Chums are a fantastic brand to go to for basic underwear and lingerie. Not only do they have a wide range of different types of bras, but they are also one of the few brands I have seen that do front fastening bras. These are perfect if you struggle with doing bras up. I've lost count of the amount of times I've pulled a muscle in my back trying to do my bra up!
Dresses
I don't know about you, but I am SO excited at being able to wear dresses and bare legs again. I actually live in dresses during the summer, so I am really looking forward to tanned legs and cute dresses. I have quite a few thin cotton dresses, but I really want to invest in some more tea dresses; either with floral prints or lace/silk detailing.
Midi Skirts
I am unfortunately too short to be able to wear maxi length skirts and dresses, so midi or mini is the way forward for me. I actually shy away from midi skirts quite often, but I have seen some gorgeous styles recently which I may end up buying. I love this black textured one from Chums, which would look great with a slogan tee!
Sandals
Finally, I cannot wait to ditch my boots and trainers for sandals and flip flops. I've actually recently bought my first ever pair of sliders, which I am really looking forward to wearing. It also means it's a valid excuse to have to paint my toes!
There's 5 things you should introduce to your wardrobe, so you can feel confident this Summer. I am now off to browse all the online shops for new sandals and dresses for my holiday! Don't forget... #StyleIsTimeless.
