FASHION RESOLUTION 2: INVEST IN CLASSICS

Happy new year everyone! 2012 is here, and it's time to look to the fashionable year ahead. Following my recent post on my first fashion resolution of the year, here comes my second: to invest in classics. Yes, in 2012 I'm vowing to save my pennies and splash out on timeless classics that will never date. Top of my wishlist are a selection of natty-print dresses and a butter-soft leather jacket from my favourite high street shop, Whistles, a timeless Hillier Hobo bag Marc by Marc Jacobs, a pair of go-anywhere Amber and Jade courts (with a clever detachable bow) and a Michael Kors watch. The perfect capsule wardrobe for a stylish 2012 and beyond!

1. Extended shoulder jacket, Whistles, £295.00.
2. Veronica Safia Print Dress, Whistles, £165.
3. Rose gold-plated chronograph watch, Michael Kors, £240.
4. Marc by Marc Jacobs Hillier Hobo leather shoulder bag, net-a-porter.com, £350.
5. Aretha Onyx court shoes with removable bow, Amber and Jade, £79.
6. Graphic paisley print dress, Whistles, £95.00.

    I'm so bad at saving my pennies and buying classics. I always prefer buying lots of cheap things, although I think your way is better!
