I've have so many mishmash items of clothing I sometimes find it hard to put an outfit together.

I need a bit of guidance! What are your go to basic staples?

spring/summer: cardies, vest tops & denim shorts or skirt, sometimes jeans & a long sleeve top, with sandals or converse
Autumn/winter: skinnies or skirt with wooly tights, knitted jumper, boots or converse

V boring, I know...

Jeans, long vest with slouchy top or jumper over it or Breton top with Long or ankle boots or leggings with knitted dresses and boots.
When its warmer I live in skinny jeans/skinny capri jeans with long vest and slouchy t shirt or box lace shirts... Can you see a theme...I need some inspiration too clearly

At the moment...
New Look skinny jeans (the ones that are 99% cotton 1% elastane) - so good I bought three pairs or my new DP slim boyfriends
Boden crew neck long sleeved tops (navy and white usually)
Navy jersey blazer or grey Mint Velvet biker style jacket
Leopard high tops or my new leopard skater shoes - www.kurtgeiger.com/laurel-multi-coloured-pony-41-carvela-kurt-geiger-shoe.html
Endless scarves, mainly from Gap

For work it's mainly crew neck knits with tube skirts, a statement necklace and brogues or ankle boots.

I find Pinterest really helping for sourcing ideas.
