Let's be honest with ourselves ladies, we tell our partners, our parents, our best friends that we have nothing to wear on a weekly basis, at a minimum. And while we might be slightly exaggerating on the 'nothing' part, the real problem is what can we wear when we have nothing to wear?

It's during these moments, when half my wardrobe becomes a floor-drobe and I'm already running 10-minutes behind schedule, that I realise I have my go-to emergency pieces; anything with a stripe. And the reason is obvious with the stripe being a classic pattern, as well as incredibly versatile and effortlessly chic.

Prepare yourself for the next time you have nothing to wear by making sure you have a few striped pieces laying around.
