Must Have Things

1.Black Blazer
A tailored blazer is classic, feminine and looks great on all body types. Pair it with anything: jeans, little dresses, trousers, skirts. Make sure to find one that fits you well and accentuates your waist-you don't want it to look like it's swallowing you!"
2.Black Dress
Every woman knows she should have a little black dress, but it's important to invest in one that's special. Look for a dress with a detail-an interesting sleeve, an embellished belt-that makes it unique. And remember that finding the right fit is important!
3.Black Opaque Tights
A great pair of tights can make your legs look slimmer and help you get away with wearing a dress that's a little too short. Double them up for a more opaque look-and to keep you warm in the winter!" 4.Oversize Watch
A watch is as much an accessory as it is a timepiece. A gold watch is a great way to dress an outfit up-try leaving it loose so it looks like a bracelet5.Classic Trench
Think of this as an investment piece-you'll wear it forever, even if you fluctuate in size. 6.Flared Jeans
 This is a flattering shape for most body types. Pair them with platforms or wedges to get extra height while keeping the look casual and comfortable.7.Classic Shoe
Whether you're a pump girl or more into a great flat, the key is that your go-to shoe is well-designed, versatile and timeless.8.A go-to Lip Color
These are the things that make a woman memorable. You won't need to wear it every day, but what is more elegant than having a red that's all yours?9.A Forever Bag
Invest in something that will never go out of style.10.Black Pants
U can wear them for every occasion.
11.Leather Jacket
They are an absolute must have wardrobe accessory,in every color.
12.A White Dress Shirt
If you will be working, going to interviews, or even just looking polished for a nice dinner anytime soon, a white dress shirt should be your new BFF. Also, I love how it somehow looks fantastic in the most rigid professional dress code, but still looks amazing and feels comfortable in casual, everyday functions as well. I highly recommend it!
13. Ballet Flats
Save your feet from the aches and pains of wearing heels.
14.Classic Coat

Since it's a coat,  you don't need to worry about being matchy-matchy with the colors in your outfit. 
15.A Lightweight, Brightly-Colored Scarf

For the most flexibility, buy a variety of scarves that are both short and long, square-shaped and rectangular, sheer and opaque.

HOW TO WEAR: HIGH-WAISTED DENIM

While we can't imagine going back to the days of low-rise denim, high-waisted jeans can be tricky to pull off.Here are some photos for a dose of inspiration.

Cheap Online Shopping Disasters

Shopping online is so fun and easy. It helps us find what we're looking for online instead of taking multiple trips around town. How could anything possibly go wrong?

Well, when shopping online, we cannot help but wonder if what we are seeing is exactly what we are buying. Our expectations can be really different than reality. We know there's a chance of what's being sent to our house to be something completely different. And there's nothing worse than being stuck with an item that is cheap and ugly.

We don't understand why online stores tend to dramatize on their products or how clothes look on skinny models, but there are many victims of bad online purchases. Why can't something we bought online be just like how we saw it? Instead, we are part of the unfortunate group who has dealt with online purchase fails. From terrible color differences to wrong sizes, shopping online becomes more and more frustrating.

Just take a look at these poor shoppers. They had no idea on what these cheap products would look like in real life. Beware when shopping online because you might easily receive in your mailbox one of these disasters.

Leandra Medine's DIY Dress Tip Is Brilliant

Though we love a good DIY as much as the next crafty gal, we have to admit it's rare to come across a project whose final product doesn’t look DIY, which is why we’re super excited about Leandra Medine’s latest posting. The style star showed how you can construct your very own dress using only two scarves and a belt, and the result is very wearable. Scroll down for a brief look at how she does it.

Every Single Way to Wear a Bandana

While the average scarf does a lot of heavy lifting in autumn and winter, we strongly feel that there’s a place for the bandana, too! The little accessory makes a bold statement and can be worn anywhere from your head to your neck to your wrist—and more. Not only that: It’s ultra-accessible (you probably already have one in your wardrobe), yet it comes in luxe versions as well, for those looking to invest in a designer style.

9 Ways to Style Your Shirt

The looks that bubble up from the street style photo wires are a great barometer of what's going on in the current consciousness of the fashion industry

As to be expected, many Fashion Week attendees also wore a blue shirt or a trusty denim shirt and made it their own via a knot or half-way tuck. Scroll down to see the many ways to style this wardrobe staple, inspired by the latest crop of street style stars and shop some of our picks below...

1: Backwards

Natasha Hartley at New York Fashion Week S/S 16.

On Hartley: J.W. Anderson shirt; Levi's 501 jeans; Louis Vuitton bag; Celine shoes.

Switch your shirt the other way around, open a few buttons and roll-up the sleeves—hey, presto! 

2: The Knot:

Take your outfit on a blast to the past by tying your shirt in a loose knot and roll up those sleeves. Perfection.

3: The Half-Tuck

Take the front of your shirt and loosely fold the front of it into your jeans and let the rest billow for effortless cool.

4: The Button-Show Tuck

Natasha Goldenberg at at Milan Fashion Week S/S 16.

Neatly tuck the front of your shirt into your jeans (zero belt for total minimalism) and let the back of your top completely hang-out for an asymmetric look. The finishing touch? Cuffs back.

5: The Collar Flip

Caroline Issa at Milan Fashion Week S/S 16.

On Issa: Loewe belt.

Conform with a complete tucked-in shirt and then open out the top of the shirt, tilt it backwards from your collarbone to create an off-the-shoulder style. The collar should hang behind your shoulders. Tricky.

6: Loose

7: The Backwards Dip

Play peek-a-boo with your blue top by layering it underneath a light-weight knit.

9: The Clean Tuck & Tug

Tuck your natty shirt neatly into a tight pencil skirt and gently pull out a little fabric for some movement. It's an oldy but a goodie.

Hairstyles That Are So Perfect for Winter

COLLARBONE-LENGTH LOB

If you go back and forth between wanting to keep your long hair or chop it all off, a lob like Gabrielle Union's might be the perfect solution. Cho recommends keeping the length below your shoulder for a style that looks just as good up as it does worn down. 

COLLARBONE-LENGTH LOB

Julianne Hough's lob is another great example of this length. If you do decide to keep your hair long but love the idea of this look, you can create a faux bob about that same length with a little help from your winter accessories. "I love when I see girls that wear their big coats with their hair tucked in — it creates that instant faux bob look with the little face-framing pieces in the front. It's such a good look for winter."

'70S-INSPIRED BANGS

Since sweaty summer has come to an end, now is the perfect time to try out bangs. Cho suggests a '70s-inspired bang like Ciara's that is shorter at the centermost part of your bangs and gradually gets longer toward your temples. This type of bang frames most face shapes in a really nice way, she says.

WINTER WAVES

This winter, try a sexy textured wave. To get Cara Delevingne's style, work with a 1-inch section of hair at a time, and use a flat iron to create half moon shapes in alternating directions for an "S"-shaped wave.

SOFT, TOUCHABLE CURLS

Curly hairstyles are great year-round, but since curly hair is drier by nature, it's important to make sure your strands are properly hydrated. This not only leaves your spirals feeling softer, it helps prevent static and frizz too. To get hydrated curls like Zendaya's, try Suave Essentials Tropical Coconut Shampoo & Conditioner, which contain coconut extract.  Says Cosmopolitan
