Fashion Rules To Live By

1. Have a Good Selection of Basics

Basic clothing pieces like what Sandwich Clothing offers are essential for the core of your staple wardrobe. They are the base of most outfits regardless of the occasion. It is always a good idea to have a good selection of core basics in neutral colours, like white, black, navy, and nude. This also includes any other plain colours that you mostly wear which can match with your other personal wardrobe pieces.
The Sandwich Sleeveless Vest Vest is a great vest top for either layering under different outfits, or on its own for a basic look. Other pieces we would recommend as a part of your basic selection from Sandwich are the Sandwich Wide Leg Linen Trouser, Sandwich Linen T-Shirt, Sandwich Buttoned V-Neck Cardigan, and the Sandwich Essential 3/4 Sleeve Linen Top.

2. Invest In Trans-seasonal Pieces

We all have the urge to follow trend pieces from time to time. However, these pieces mostly end up being a one-season wonder in our wardrobes. As a result, they can end up being not just a waste of money, but not very eco-friendly as well. We suggest investing in trans-seasonal pieces. These pieces are items of clothing that you can wear season after season. They are also versatile enough to style in different ways, whether you are in for a smart or casual look.
One of our favourite trans-seasonal Sandwich Clothing items is the  Sandwich Midi Printed Dress This is super easy to wear casually with sandals or trainers or dress up with heeled sandals. It is also great for layering under knitwear in colder seasons. Another favourite of ours is the Sandwich Abstract Print Short Sleeved T-shirt; a top that can be worn with skirts, jeans, trousers, or shorts. Then there is the Sandwich Skinny High Waisted Trousersthat can be worn with vests to thick knits, as well as various shoes.

3. Wear What Makes You Feel Confident

One of our favourite rules is to always wear what makes you feel confident. What you wear and your personal style shows off your personality, which is a huge part of who you are.
A couple of personal favourites that make us feel good are the Sandwich Animal Print Dress, because when doesn't animal print make you feel fierce? Another is the Sandwich Linen A-Line Dress With Belt a classic that is perfect for feeling like the best-dressed guest at a party. And then there is the Sandwich Floral Print Jersey Skirt; a bold and bright fitted skirt that shows confidence in its truest form.

4. Always Accessorise

An outfit is never complete without adding an accessory or two, whether it be a classic scarf or bold jewellery. We believe that your outfit is never truly complete without finishing it off with accessories. Accessories can add personality, colour, and elegance to any outfit even if it is just by adding a simple pair of earrings.
We have a couple of patterned scarves from the Sandwich Collection which add colour and print to your look. The Floral Print Woven Scarf or the Animal Print Woven Scarf are both great accessories that you can wear classicly around your shoulders, or even as a pretty headscarf in the warm weather, or tied around your handbag for a chic look!

5. Strive For a Mixture of Prints and Plains

Lastly, we recommend choosing a mixture of print and plain pieces for your dream capsule wardrobe. By having prints and plains in your wardrobe, you should have pieces that can easily be mixed and matched to create different looks.
We love the Striped Woven Blouse from Sandwich Clothing as it is classic and casual, perfect for pairing with plain bottoms in different colours like the Blissful Blue Trousers. The Zip Up Linen Dress is another example of a plain clothing piece that can easily be matched with a print piece, like the Animal Print Woven Scarf, or simply with the Sandwich Open Fine Knit Cardigan. You can pretty much create any look by mixing plain and patterned pieces!
