As slow fashion becomes more of a thing with every passing day, our Lifestyle PR Team takes a look at wardrobe pieces that are not only trend-proof, but will stand the test of time for years to come. Otherwise known as investment pieces, these are the items you can afford to splash out.
Tweed Blazer
A classic tweed blazer will never go out of style. Choose a middleweight tweed, and you can enjoy wearing it all year round. Choose a single or double-breasted blazer and go slightly oversized. In the winter you can enjoy wearing it with a skinny rib polo neck, jeans and boots and come summer, you can wear with a classic t-shirt, shorts and trainers for a fresh preppy feel.
Oversized Sunglasses
Oversized sunglasses will never be out of fashion so you can afford to invest in a quality pair of shades. Go big or go home. Think Jackie O and Hollywood film star glamour. Choose your frame shape to complement your face:
Round faces choose round frames. Oval and angular face shapes look great with square and round frames, and square face shapes look good in round or rectangular sunglasses.
A Classic Mac
A classic mac coat is a proven trend-proof garment. Whether it’s designer, high-street, wool or waterproof, it will always be in fashion. Choose hues of camel or cream for a designer feel to your outfit.
Stylist Tip: Swap the coat’s belt for a statement belt with details to pull together your look.
Simple Jewellery
Clean lines and bold will always stand the test of time. Investing in quality jewellery is money well spent. A simple bangle or pendant necklace can be worn alone or teamed with on-trend custom jewellery for a look you can adapt and change. Wearing beautiful jewellery such as The Silver Stable will also upgrade your high street custom jewellery when worn together.
White Shirt
A crisp white cotton shirt will be your instant wardrobe refresh and trend-proof item. You will never get bored with a white shirt. Dress it up with a leather skirt and heels or dress it down with a pair of skinny dark denim jeans and pumps. A white shirt can be your work or play wear and will always be on-trend.
Little Black Dress
The little black dress is our saviour and essential. Forever a classic trend-proof item, your little black dress will always be your ‘go-to’ party or cocktail piece. Clothe yourself in the knowledge that your LBD will always look and make you feel fantastic. Fact.
Now you have got your trend-proof wardrobe items, we share what to wear at the Races.
