The first item which I consider a must-have item is the 'Breton Tee'. Stripy tops have been a long-term obsession of mine, which I think goes to show just how timeless in style they are. They can literally be worn with anything - jeans, cigarette pants, shorts, blazers, flirty skirts and will always add interest to your look. I always think they look great paired with simple pieces such as a great pair of skinnies and a blazer and then jazzed up with statement accessories. If you're going for Parisian chic, of course, a navy blue or black and white option and strong red lips are a must!


Here are a few versions which I think will make a welcome addition to every wardrobe. And the excuse is, it's an investment, right!


1) Sienna Stripe Shirt from French Connection £20
2) Emma Watson for People Tree from John Lewis £12.50
3) Stripy tee by Velvet at Matches £98
4) Boatneck Long Sleeve Multi Brown Stripe T-Shirt from Oasis
5) LNA Long Sleeve Tee Dress from Glassworks Studios
What do you think about the Breton Tee?
I was thinking of doing a little series on key basics that every girl should own. I'd love to hear your thoughts and what you think makes the perfect capsule wardrobe!

I love the stripes, so effortless and chic. Along with stripes, I think a good trench coat should be a staple in every girls closet. Even if you're in a rush and have to run errands but don't feel like spending time dressing up, a trench makes you look sharp and put together.

The John Lewis one looks very Nautical-ish. Love it.
