My Top 6 Favourite Fashion Purchases (best quality & best buy)

We all have our faithful items that we turn to time and time again, whether it be because we love the fit, or because it is the most comfortable thing to wear on a busy day.

I for one, am a huge advocate for wearing clothing items over and over again - I know, shocking as I call myself a member of the fashion industry. However, contrary to popular belief, you do not have to wear a new clothing item every single day to look like you are inventive and stylish. There are many ways to change up a clothing item so that it can be used almost every single day with a new outfit.

This, I believe, is where the true challenge of styling and dressing comes in. It is important for us to realise that it is not economically, environmentally or sustainably friendly to shop for a new wardrobe item every single day or week.

But, instead of me digressing into a whole other rant, I will stay on topic. (Let's just say that I should start a campaign of normalising same clothes everyday 👏 😂).

I have decided to dedicate today's blog post to talking about and listing items that I have purchased and absolutely adore and would recommend. This list of items work for me every season, have served their purpose of being good quality/long lasting clothing items, and are easy for me to change up and style with many outfits:

1. GOOD DENIM JEANS

To me, it is extremely important to have a good pair of jeans that suit your body and are great quality. Once you have found your perfect pair, it is so easy to wear the jeans again and again with different pieces and items.

The jeans I am wearing are a Mom style silhouette, and to change up the look I will often focus on changing the tops and shoes. These heavy denim jeans are honestly such great quality, and the beauty of denim is that it is meant to be worn often and is so durable. Denim is also a fabric that doesn't actually need to be washed constantly, as lots of washing disturbs the organic cottons in the fabrication.

2. BASIC CROP TOP

Like you can see in the picture above, a good basic crop top is a great item all year round, and to layer with warmers items, or just to have in the hot summer days. When getting a nice basic, whether it be a crop top, or a tank/vest/shirt, it is always vital to invest some money in a good item that is made with a good material that you know will last you long and go with everything. The crop top I am wearing is made out of a soft lycra, and can be reversed so that the key hole back faces the front - this gives me two tops in one, which is perfect to be able to wear and change up often with different outfits!

3. TOTE BAG

Nothing beats a good Tote Bag that you can keep all your junk in and use every time you run out the door. Pictured you can see my favourite one, that fits so much in as it is a large size and is made of an athletic, durable material.

4. BIKER SHORTS

These are a bit controversial for some people, but I have come to love wearing them often for either working out at home, or if I am having a busy day I will throw over an oversized top and get going. Again, finding the perfect pair that is comfortable and with a great stretch can give you the reliable athleisure outfit you need for your day to day errands.

5. OVERSIZED BLACK SWEATPANTS

This is an item I love to wear often, and if you come across me at the grocery shop, you will probably see me rocking a pair of oversized trackies with an oversized top. The great thing about sweatpants is that you can dress them up the one day and then dress them casual the next.

6. A GOOD PAIR OF SNEAKERS

A pair of shoes that I love wearing and got my money's worth from is my suede Nike Air Force 1s. It is always a good investment when buying a good quality sneaker that you know are neutral colours and can match many outfits from your wardrobe.
