It is all about defining your style and having a clear picture in your head whenever you go shopping. Yes, seasons change, trends come and go, but your signature style stays. Every year you update it with new items from what trends appeared on the runway. Still there are certain things that you hold dear to your heart: a LBD you know would immediately make you feel flattered, a denim shirt, whatever.
Now that is a good start, take a piece of paper and jot down what kind of style you pursue. It need not be that hard. It can just be a picture of someone you think of as having impeccable style. It can be built on the very basics: jeans, white shirt, a simple tee, a blazer. Always, always start from the basics.
