Most people when going shopping buy single items that catch their eye rather than a whole outfit. Also whole oufits including the shoes can be very expensive. However when you get home what you thought may fit in is the wrong colour and never gets worn.

The best way to overcome this problem is to stock up with some good basics, so that you will always have items to match.

Buy Underwear that is black or white, but also have a couple with pretty straps that you do not mind people seeing. This will help you when buying dresses and tops.

Buy a selection of different coloured vest tops. These can be worn under cardigans and jackets.

Money well spend would be to invest in a couple of pairs of different colour jeans. Jeans go with most clothes and and with the different fits you can dress up or down.

If you can afford it, buy three pairs of shoes. A flat pair of shoes go with most things, some knee high boots for skirts and dresses, and a pair of heeled shoes for special occassions.

In conclusion high fashion items work best when worn with plain pieces, so to make your wardrobe work its best to have some of the basics.
