The editor-in-chief: Emmanuelle Alt

The editor-in-chief of French Vogue is known for her slightly androgynous looks. Her penchant for wearing slacks with collared silk blouses has always been one of her staple looks and just goes to show that once you have a winning formula it doesn’t hurt to stick with it.

The digital entrepreneur: Miroslava Duma

The diminutive founder of Buro 24/7 and The Tot is a constant on my style radar simply because of her ability to flit from boho chic one minute to sharp tailoring the next. Whether she’s in jeans and a tee or a floaty summer dress, Duma can always be relied upon for an outfit idea or two.

She has one of the best work wardrobes on television via her role as Rachel Zane on Suits so it’s no surprise that Meghan Markle’s real life wardrobe is equally as impressive. The actress and founder of lifestyle website The Tig favours feminine silhouettes with lots of wardrobe cameos from seriously stylish stilettos and form-fitting dresses. Bookmark the look above for those days when you’re wanting to elevate your casual wear to something a little more polished.

Black dress

A simple black dress will get plenty of outings. It’s the ideal go-to option for those days when you just need to get out the door fast as it always looks chic with minimal effort. Plus it’s the perfect blank canvas for layering with everything from jackets to blazers.

Sleeveless trench

For those who have always been a fan of a classic trench a modern take on it is to opt for a sleeveless version and treat as a layering piece in a similar fashion to a vest. Try it with jeans or leather leggings, the pairing is just perfect.

Lace-up pointed flats

I’ve been seeing plenty if incarnations of pointed lace-up flats from designer version to an inexpensive chain store find. If you’ve been considering buying a pair – do! Not only are they comfortable they are the ideal way to make an outfit look on trend. There are also plenty of budget-friendly options available that won’t break the bank.

Black bag

A simple, black, top handle bag will forever be a wardrobe staple so be sure to buy one that you truly love and of a quality that will last. It will instantly pull your outfit together and when you’re carrying it around with you day in and day out it’s definitely one splurge that provides value for money.

Black sunglasses

Whether you’re hiding a big night or simply want to hide away from the world a pair of dark sunnies are a wardrobe necessity. A pair of classic black sunglasses are the type of shopping purchase that you won’t regret – you’ll come back to them time and time again.
