Building a wardrobe can be tricky. Staying on-trend is far more difficult than it seems, and pulling off an exciting new piece won’t always lead to a home run. Maybe you’re a little less bold, and more comfortable with a classic look. That’s all well and good, but you still need to be sure of which staples to invest in.
Developing your new and improved look will take some time, and you’ll need some inspiration along the way. Forget about a style consultant, all you need to start with is your phone. We’ve compiled a few of our favourite Instagrammers, all of whom have nailed their own unique style. Give them a follow for inspiration, find the one that suits you the most, and start pulling off your own fresh looks.
