my very first what is new in my wardrobe video of 2025 we've got some mid-range bags some of them I think you're going to absolutely love without rambling on too much I'm going to show you guys what is new in my wardrobe as always everything will be linked right down in the description below I'll also leave info on sizing and I think I have some discount codes today as well so I will leave everything right down in the description below okay so let's kick things off with a new piece of jewelry and I have to
mention my new jewelry Which is my wedding band so if you didn't know I actually got married on New Year's Eve it was so much fun we had the best best day this is a very chunky gold wedding band it's from rocks Jewelers and this is the place where I got my engagement ring as well and I absolutely love the almost vintage inspired kind of vibe of this band if you can see here it's slightly rounded at the edges so it's very comfortable it's quite thick and I love how it looks with the ring maybe
in the future I'll do a little something up top here but for now I absolutely love it and it is honestly my dream dream wedding stack boxs are a gorgeous Irish Jewelers and they have a branch in Dublin they actually have a few branches in Dublin we dealt with the lovely Emer and she was absolutely incredible let's talk about another few pieces of jewelry that I picked up so on this wrist here I have this really simple gold bangle and I absolutely love this even when I'm not wearing my watch I just love how simple
this is and this is from my favorite online jewelry shop Monica Viner I've so many amazing pieces from them and over the past few years I've really built up a gorgeous collection uh most of my bracelets here are Monica Viner this is the Ala charm bracelet this is the airling bracelet and my everyday ring stack that I wear in honestly every video is Monica Viner as well I always get questions about that I do have a running discount code for them it's Kira mv20 and if that is still active um I will leave it in
the description below so definitely try that code if you're going to make a purchase cuz it can get you 20% off another piece of Jew I picked up from Monica vineger is the most beautiful pair of pearl earrings are so perfect for dressing a look up I knew for my wedding that I wanted to wear kind of a chunky Pearl almost like a Barack style raw Pearl I'll link them in the description below they're so beautiful I can see myself wearing these a lot more coming into spring summer as well for a more affordable piece
of jewelry I'm also going to mention these two little pave bands that I have on either side of my ultra human ring it's basically a fitness tracker tracks your sleep um activity steps all that kind of stuff on either side of this ring I have two pave style Rings just from Amazon I think they were maybe 12 each and they make such a difference to the ring they make it look a lot kind of dressier so I'll link those in the description they're definitely such a bargain find and even if you weren't using them on
either sides of your Fitness ring you could also just wear them as like a stacking ring in general so let's move on to some clothing and I want to show you guys a few pieces that I picked up from suzan they are honestly one of my favorite places to shop they have such gorgeous knitwear and I picked up a few pieces that I'll be wearing now but also into the coming spring season as well so the first piece is this beautiful Niche cardigan Emily or the Amal I will link it in the description below so
comfortable it's definitely like a chunky almost like a m Hair Style Niche it's really really thick but it's actually very comfortable on the skin I do have a t-shirt underneath it I'm wearing the C clean cut tea which honestly you guys probably know at this stage I wear under all of my knitwear and then you can see it's just a really cute chunky jumper I love this navy color then I also have this gorgeous little neckerchief and it was one of the things that I really really wanted to pick up for 2025 I'm loving seeing
how people are styling printed scarves and little neckerchiefs and it's such an easy way to add a pop of color or a little bit of print and just some more interest to an outfit wear this like sitting out maybe with a white T-shirt and then the other piece of knitware I'm going to show you is the aell cardigan by suzan it's so gorgeous it's in this beautiful kind of cool toned oat color very easy to style in that it's the type of neutral that's just going to go with everything also really really soft and really
cozy but again it doesn't seem to like itch my skin and then the last thing that I picked up from suzan is the most beautiful trench that I'll be wearing coming into spring and it's called The Carter trench what I love about this trench is its length I already have some like Maxi longer length trenches and I absolutely love them but I wanted something that was in that kind of middle and this is perfect it hits kind of like mid thigh it's still going to offer you that bit of coverage that bit of warmth but
it's not like engulfing you in Fabric and I think that coming into spring summer it's really nice to lighten up our layers a little bit and to not be as like drown in fabric I think this will be a great one to style into spring summer I would wear this with a simple t-shirt a shirt underneath and maybe like a light nit thrown over the shoulders just to make sure that I wasn't going to get too cold so moving on from suzan another clothing brand that I did a sizable haul from is abber cromie five
pairs of jeans and two pairs of trousers now I know that that's excessive but hear me out they're all like a midrise and what I've noticed recently is I picked up one pair of midrise jeans from abber cromie I think I bought them with like a discount code or something that they had I noticed that the fit of midrise was actually way more flattering on me than high-rise jeans and basically all of my jeans are highrise so if you're a similar body type to me like I don't really have much curves and I'm maybe like
5'8 5'9 on a good day and I found that high-rise jeans just didn't do that much for me whereas midrise I find much more flattering so I picked up one pair immediately fell in love with them and realized that I was going to actually swap out some of my favorite styles for midrise so we're going to start with the midrise barrel Jean and this was the first one that I picked up recently that I love the barrel style in general I've spoken about this multiple times but it's so big for this year it was massive
in 2024 it was probably one of the biggest Jee trends that we saw and it's going nowhere for 2025 and it's great because it's actually a really flattering style it's easy to dress it down for day wear and pair it with like trainers and flats but then it's easy to actually throw on a pair of like cord heels or heels with your Barrel jeans and pair it with like a dressier or waist coat or you know like a smart Blazer it's actually a very versatile style I think I went for a size 27 or 26
I'll actually leave the exact in in the description below so do check that out if you're looking for a size reference but the dark blue wash I absolutely loved and they're so comfortable I've already worn them to evenings out I've worn them during the day like they're such good jeans because of that I went and I picked them up in a completely different color so I got them in the kind of beigy oaty color and these I cannot wait to style coming into spring summer but they look great even with whites like white t-shirts they
look great with colors they're quite neutral so really I think these will be very very easy to style I got these in the exact same measurements and leg length as my previous pair so I'll leave all that in the description below another pair that I picked up was their midrise 9s straight Jean and if you watched my recent video about the top 10 most worn items of 2024 the jeans that I mentioned in that were the abomi 90s straight they are the perfect minimal' 9s Jean so comfortable perfect cut on the waist and I wore
them so so much that I was determined to get them in the darker darker wash so I have the kind of blue denim and then I wanted to go for like the deeper Indigo I had to put stock notifications on because they honestly sell out so quickly so if any of these jeans are in stock in your size and you want to try them I would jump on it because they do sell out super super fast final pair of jeans that I picked up and I got these again in two colors are the midrise slouchy
Jean so it's the midrise cut it sits really really nicely on your waist and kind of your hips and it has that kind of straight baggy style it's not too baggy but it's like that kind of loose fit that again is very easy to style for every day but I actually love how a baggy style Jean like this looks if you pair it with a cord heel and like a cute waist coat or a cute Blazer I just feel like this new kind of customization that they do really allows you to get your perfect pair
of jeans which I honestly think is amazing so I got the mid rice slouchy Jean in two different colors I went for it in the kind of washed black finish which I love it's a really nice color way and really really easy to style and then I also picked them up in like a washed faded Denim and again coming into spring summer I think this slightly lighter color is going to be really really nice so yeah that's five pairs of jeans two different styles in two washes each and then one additional pair that I already
have another wash of so as you can see when I'm a big fan of a pair of jeans I will pick them up in different washes because I know I just grab for them so much and to me that's kind of how to shop for a capsule wardrobe and that you're going with the pieces that you know work for you so it just makes life easier the last two items from Apper cromie are the same pair of trousers in two different colors and it is the Sloan Taylor trouser I have seen so many of my
favorite content creators wearing them and I'd heard so much hype about these trousers I love CA tailored trousers I love Arquette tailored trousers all of the trousers that I had previously again were in a highrise cost I wanted to do the research for you guys and see what this trouser was about but I wanted to get it in a lower rise I chose this loan in the low rise I would say it fits more like a mid rise I am going to overhaul some of my wardrobe and I'm going to I think rotate some things
out that I now I know I will be no longer wearing as much so I picked up the Sloan in the lowrise in the black color I mean the classic black you just cannot go wrong with it but I also picked it up in the gray wash as well and I'm so impressed it's so comfortable they're really really soft they feel super light in a nice way these would be amazing for workware and that's what I often hear people say when they talk about the slan is that they're a real key piece for people for
their workware wardrobe so whether or not you want to try their like traditional kind of higher rise or you want to go for the lower rise they are so flattering they are really nice length I think I found my perfect fit I mentioned that I had done a refresh of some of my favorite basic t-shirts and again I feel like a broken record but if you've not heard me talk about the cause clean cut tea then I don't know what to tell you it is probably my number one most worn item in my wardrobe I
wear them every other day to be honest so I picked up another one of my classic white I got it in the size small and then I also got the gray version and the Black Version which I actually didn't have before and again these t-shirts my favorite thing about them is that the collar is slightly thicker it like sits really nicely around the neck so it's the perfect t-shirt to wear under knitwear again with something like this even if I didn't have this Neer Chief you just see a little bit of the white T-shirt peeking
out they've just made it in such a way that it's a great basic looks great on its own without being covered just like under a Blazer or just on its own but it looks really really nice layered under knits whether it's v-neck round neck and I also went wild and bought a striped version and again coming into spring summer I do love incorporating a little bit of a stripe I feel like it's such a spring energy so yeah I feel like getting the striped version was a cute little addition but again I would highly recommend
the white if you don't know where to start get the white one but I think that the gray and the black are great great capsule wardrobe basics as well these are a new addition from Jimmy Fairley I have such an obsession with Jimmy fairly glasses I need to stop buying them but honestly I just love them I feel like they're such good quality and really really fairly priced as well they obviously do sunglasses and I have a few pairs of their sunglasses but it's actually their eyeg glasses that I tend to buy you can get
them with a lovely blue light filter you can also get them with obviously whatever your prescription is so I know that 2024 was definitely the year of the Adidas trainers but I don't think they're going anywhere in 2025 and I finally got my hands on a pair that I've been trying to get for probably the whole of 2024 and they kept selling out these are the Adidas speals which I think are actually even more comfortable than sambas they have a little bit more padding in the footed and they just feel bouncier I feel like that's
what everyone kind of says about them but these are in the brown suede they also come with a beautiful um tan lace which I think I might switch out but I just think they're so Chic I haven't properly worn these yet cuz I just got them but I actually am going into the city tomorrow and I think I'm going to wear these because they're so comfortable so we're going to move on to one of my favorite brands for Basics and that is flattered and I picked up these gorgeous Ember boots now I love an ankle
boot I just feel like it's such a fun thing to style and these are so minimal and so Chic my other pair of ankle boots from flattered are the Moya and they have a higher kind of narrow heel and they're a bit pointier and that's why I love that these have nice rounded foot they're just very kind of more everyday this little chunky heel here is so comfortable and I mean I think you can see here on camera how soft they are they feel so so nice when you zip them on it's like you're wearing
a sock boot they're so comfortable I feel like these are a great basic that I'm going to live in coming into spring summer I would wear these with the '90s straight jeans that I mentioned before I think they would go together so so well such a classic boot to have so moving on I'm going to talk about some bags that I picked up and again this is over the last few months so these weren't all picked up in like a super short time frame but this is the lesie tote by flattered and this you may
recognize I have this in the chocolate suede version and I adore it it's such a beautiful bag it's the perfect size for a workware you can fit a laptop a laptop case in here it honestly fits so much they recently brought it out in this gorgeous shade which is called Bourbon and again you can see that gorgeous suede finish if you watched my 2025 Trend report video suede is going nowhere it's still massive for 2025 especially coming into spring summer and again it feels a bit more summery than the chocolate suede if you watched my
top 10 most worn of 2024 video you will have seen this already but I'm going to show you again and it is my new shearling bag by songm mon this is just so fun like the texture is so different to anything that I have in my wardrobe I particularly love how this looks when it's styled as a dumpling bag and again I feel like textured bags are such a fun way to add interest to an outfit especially if you're working with a lot of Basics and a lot of kind of basic colors I think this
is so nice they have so many different colors I feel like they're such a good price I actually do have a discount code for songm as well if it's still active I'll link it in the description below but I believe it's 12% off but they do such good bags I absolutely love this and also if you haven't seen they do suede versions of the Luna now I feel like so many bag brands are releasing suede bags the very last bag I'm going to show you is such a classic I think you're going to love this
and it is the dellier New York in the black color way and this is the midi New York so this is honestly one of my favorite favorite bag styles by dellia I already have this in the tan color and it was genuinely one of my most worm bags of 2024 it fits everything that you could need and then some but it's not a toast so you don't end up overfilling it you probably know by now how much I love dellier I feel like their quality versus their price is so good I love their designs they
have some new designs out for 2025 that are absolutely on my wish list but I do think if you're new to the brand and you wanted to buy a piece that is going to be the most versatile the most wearable that's going to go with the most I just think you're going to get so much wear out of it so the last two items that I added to my wardrobe for winter are these really cute little triangle neck scarves I actually got these on Urban Outfitters um during the Black Friday sales and I think they
were something like 12 they might actually still be reduced so I will link them below but I got them in kind of a plain OTE color and then also a red color I'm enjoying adding a few accessories that just add fun and personality because I don't want to get too predictable I think with my capsule wardrobe that is everything that I have added to my wardrobe over the last few months as always everything will be linked down in the description below I'll also leave info once sizes and any discount codes that I have as well
