What made it to my closet in February

There were no "outstanding" purchases in February, it was more about restocking basics.

1- Tops

• A white shirt (Zara). I hesitated to get this one as I found it expensive for a high street buy but after searching an equivalent to no avail, I finally bought it a few days ago. It's made in soft viscose, not (too) transparent and has a flattering cut.(03/12 update: Returned. I was too dubious regarding the quality of this item)

• 2 marinières (stripped tees) at Uniqlo:  red on white/ white on navy. (03/12 update: Returned, too much stripes kill the stripes...)
  

• natural loose knit (Isabel Marant Etoile) : a basic for everyday.

2 - Bottoms

• Dark grey slim cargo (Uniqlo) for casual days.

• Black ankle trousers from Zara, nicely cut for everyday.

• H&M chinos, a real bargain at 10 euros and a perfect slightly loose cut.

3- Accessories

• H&M white canvas/black leather tote. It's always a surprise to see in real life an item you wanted based solely on pics. With H&M it's often not a good one (I still remember this Winter long awaited and awfully made shearling jacket) but this one didn't disappoint.

So I was able to instil a little novelty in my work wardrobe  and cross items from my days-off list:

• a slim denim or chambray overall to wear underneath my Isabel Marant Bator and later with the Etoile grey jacket.
• red stripes
• h&m black leather and white canvas tote
• slim cargos in grey.
