Style Essentials: The Basics

There are a few items of clothing that you can always rely on, simple and classic pieces which are certain to have a long and happy life in your wardrobe. 

Here are a few of my favourite 'basics' that I feel are worth investing in and adding to your closets over time... 

The perfect tee - soft & slouchy in a super soft cotton

Breton stripes and an understated bag

A cashmere jumper in a neutral colour

A white shirt and leather trousers

Boyfriend jeans

Skinny jeans and Converse trainers

Simple stilettos 

Chelsea boots (my favourites!)

A great coat in a classic style

A mac

Tuxedo jacket and tailored trousers

And finally a black leather jacket goes with everything!

Styling with Atoll by Sophie Robertson: The Blue One

So here it is, my final styling session with Atoll's beautiful silk scarves. For me 'The Blue One' really captures the spirit of Australia. The tropical print (derived from a photo Sophie took of the Mandarin Fish at the Great Barrier Reef) makes me crave the summer sun. Here I've styled it with a few of my summer essentials, I love the idea of wearing it as a bandeau top with denim shorts or around your neck to add interest to a pretty dress - it's the perfect accessory to take you stylishly from the beach to the bar!

You can receive 20% off the entire Atoll collection until April 1st by entering ELLESAPPELLE at the checkout!
