Once you have set the basis for your wardrobe, you create a balance. From there you can update your look by selecting some trends that fit you and your wardrobe well. For example, this can be an update of basic staples that keep your look fresh and contemporary. Such as an oversized version the Breton striped top or an extra long version of the trench coat.
