3. Indigo Slim-Fit Jeans

4. Chinos and Trousers

You can wear one all year round and it’ll last you a lifetime. The look you should go for is casual, but in control.

Casual, work-suitable and comfortable, the beauty of brilliant white trainers is that they’ll anchor almost every look in your wardrobe.
7. A Smart Knitwear Piece
Be it jumpers or cardigans, make sure they have enough room to layer over another piece. V-neck jumpers communicate a more formal tone, while crew necks look great over a shirt.
8. Brown Lace-Up Shoes

9. A Navy Blue Suit
A blue suit can’t easily be mistaken for a basic black number anymore. For office, weddings, romantic dates- a well-tailored navy blue suit will never let you down.
10. Brown and Black Dress Belts
Belts are one of the few style accessories that blend form and function. A dark brown and black leather belt with a silver belt buckle is a requirement in any well-curated closet.
