Here’s exactly what to buy, if you constantly wear the same things, day in, day out.

If you can’t get out of your jeans, try: 

The New Pants: This season there is no excuse not to indulge in the plethora of various pants that will make you feel like you’re wearing jeans but are a tad more interesting. And different from your usual denim.

1. TopShop houndstooth cigarette pants, $74.33

2. ASOS leather pants, $283.30

3. Saint Laurent tapered pants, $796.70

4. Diane von Furstenberg leopard print silk pants, $401.95

5. Roland Mouret straight leg pants, $684.32

If you’re always in the same pumps, try:

Ankle boots: They have a knack of turning a boring old dress or pant/top combination into a proper outfit. Like you’re cool. Like you know what’s going on in the world of fashion. Team with a dress and you’ve positively funked it up – yes, even in spring and summer. Wear with shorts or pants for extra street cred.

2. Rag & Bone grey nubuck ankle boots, $603

3. Jeffrey Campbell suede ankle boots, $172.42

4. Bottega Veneta suede cut out ankle boots, $946

5. Club Monaco ankle boots, $439.39

If you are always reaching for black, try:

A feature print: This can be on a top or a skirt or a dress, and it shouldn’t be so scary bright that you never want to wear it. The best prints are those that are neutral, so you can work them into your everyday wardrobe without thinking they are “occasion” wear. Either that or choose a brighter print in a casual shape so you feel like you can wear it often.
