The Skinny Scarf

An early noughties staple of Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan, the skinny scarf, is back. This time round, pair yours with peasant blouses and suede skirts for relaxed Woodstock vibes, and leave the velour tracksuits at home. Please.

The ‘Wear Any Way’ Hair Braid

Remember the hair braids you got on holiday when you were six? Topshop have made their own faux version, which slides easily in and on your do’, and doesn't involve your mum cutting out a chunk of your hair afterwards.

If you don’t have long hair (perhaps because your mum CUT IT?), add them to a pendant necklace as a charm, or slot them inside a handbag for a quick accessory update.

The Plaited Belt

Everyone from Burberry to Valentino showcased designs inspired by the Far East, this season. For an easy way to add some of the Orient to your wardrobe, tie this long plaited belt around an old dress or jacket. If you want to create a flattering hourglass silhouette, choose clothes that are slightly loose to wear underneath.

The Outfit-Making clutch

Regardless of what you’ve chucked on, any look can be updated with a bold clutch bag. Whether it’s a white t-shirt and jeans or an LBD, grabbing a loud clutch on your way out instantly says ‘I’ve made an effort!’. And, if nothing else, it’ll definitely distract your mates from the fact you wore the same outfit last week...
