There are plenty of adventurous trends to experiment with this summer (see g-string and clogs), but it's helpful to remind ourselves of the reliable, and not to mention versatile, basics that are the building

True, they don't get the heart racing quite like a shimmering metallic skirt but these "boring" pieces look chic and minimal when worn alone and allow statement pieces to really shine. Although the same staples reappear every summer, if you need to restock or just want to add another key piece to your wardrobe, we've found 13 items that you'll be wearing forever. From white tank tops to denim shorts and strappy sandals, take a peek at how to style them this season and shop our favourite picks below.
