Topshop is bae.

To this day, I can still remember the first time that I walked into a Topshop. It was 2004 in sunny Singapore, and they had just opened their flagship store on Orchard Road. Franz Ferdinand’s ‘Take Me Out’ came blasting through the ceiling speakers, as I ran my fingers through their spring / summer selection. At the time, I barely had a grip on the concepts of style and fashion, but I picked a cut-out sleeveless black blouse that I still own to this day. Seriously my roommate calls me a hoarder, but I like to think of it more…

This design is a classic that can’t go wrong. With its first introduction in the 60’s, the mod-style skirt transcends the decades to become a staple to every woman’s wardrobe. Pro tip: when you’re looking to invest in a utility skirt, there has to be a unique element that makes it stand out beyond the rest.

With its loose fitting form and soft mix of material, the high waisted trouser slips on like a dream, providing cloud-like comfort throughout your day and night. These pants are easily my #1 go-to when I’m looking for something that will clean the lines and bring a look together.

On Tuesdays, we wear Turtlenecks. Just kidding, but seriously nothing defines a utility item better than a well designed basic. And I’m not talking about that particular pumpkin-spice-latté kind of basic (yes, the season is already approaching).  I’m talking about a high quality, comfortable and truly ageless piece.

Just watch, once you slip this piece on, you’ll be wearing endless combinations throughout the seasons and years. Featured: T by Alexander Wang / Ribbed wool turtleneck…
