Again, i’d argue this is a staple for anyone but a cropped black tshirt is SO versatile. I’d vote that this is best paired with a bodycon skirt, chunky belt, denim jacket & some stomper boots.

I’d argue that a long sleeve, black & white stripe tee should be a staple in any wardrobe. BUT this is definitely an alt girl essential. Perfect for wearing alone but also for layering under band tees, dresses and dungarees.

I sometimes think Jackets can make or break an outfit. Here are some suggestions I love, that you just can’t go wrong with!

I’m not usually one for a cropped jacket, but I do think when styled right, they perfectly suit some looks. Perfect over a bodycon or skater dress.

A washed out, off black denim jacket. This would look perfect covered with patches & pins.

I definitely think high top Converse are a basic staple. Can be dressed up or down, super comfy and a classic!
