Clothing and accessories all come and go as styles change, meaning you could be left with a pile of unwanted bits and pieces and having to shell out for a new wardrobe.
So what do you do when you want to accessorise that pair of jeans, without buying any more bits or revamp a wardrobe without having to pay over the odds for a whole new wardrobe?
Stick to a few classic styles of course.
We give you top some tips to ensure your wardrobe is packed with things that will never go out of fashion.
Timeless tip #1. Get a watch
Watches are a timeless must have for anyone. They've lasted throughout the seasons by re-creating themselves into a range of very different sizes, shapes, forms and colours. However, if you want a watch that will weather the style changes then opt for something classic and without all the bling that is in fashion today. Stick to something dainty, which will suit any outfit.
Timeless tip #2. Buy a scarf
A simple piece of silk or linen will turn a boring outfit into a sophisticated get up. Keep the colour neutral to ensure you can wear this piece with any item in your wardrobe.
Timeless tip #3. Invest in a leather handbag
A girl can't go anywhere without her handbag, meaning this handy accessory really has to make a statement wherever you go. Many of us will opt to achieve this by buying a range of bags to match different outfits. However, you only really need one timeless style to suit your outfit.
Consider your handbag choice carefully when you're buying. Bags that are too big can be hard to carry and get heavy quickly but a small handbag can easily become overly stuffed and look tacky. Therefore opt for a medium sized bag, which will have enough space for you to carry what you need. Your next challenge is to pick a suitable colour, which should be something neutral like black, brown or cream. Choosing a leather style will also mean the bag lasts a lot longer.
Timeless tip #4. The T-Shirt
A simple white or black t-shirt should be a must have on every girls list. This item can be dressed up with a range of accessories, such as a scarf or necklace, or down, with a pair of jeans and trainers. Choose the neckline that suits you most and the one you're most likely to wear.
Although this item can be picked up from nearly every highstreet store of supermarket clothing range we advise you to pay that little bit more for your t-shirt. Not only will it last longer through the wash but you could also find it's easier to iron
Timeless Tip #5: The little black dress
If you only take one piece of advice then make sure it's this. Every girl needs a LBD in their wardrobe, which can be worn time and time again. To ensure the dress remains a timeless masterpiece you should ensure the frock hasn't got any excess beading, rhinestones, appliques, or embroidery, which could make it look old fashioned. Also ensure the length isn't too short or the neckline too revealing.
