    I'm on Asos.com and want to buy stuff :)
    Thing is, I've no idea where to start!!
    I want to change my look, I generally wear jeans and a long sleeved top (both to work and on the weekends) with either flats or a heeled boot.

    What can I do to bring in changes? What should I invest in?

    I'm presuming you are female?!
    How about you start layering a bit? Like wear a denim shirt open with the sleeves rolled up, over your long sleeved top, possibly with a scarf also? A nice light knit jumper, maybe in a bold colour, such as orange with a neat collared shirt underneath and a statement necklace? Or there are lovely blazers available at the moment, either a navy & white striped one which you could wear with a white/orange/red/navy top underneath. Start following some fashion bloggers on instagram/facebook for some inspiration, I've been following Ystyle on Facebook for a while, she posted good inspiration photos.
    Happy Shopping!

    I think you can't go wrong with a nice blazer in either grey or black and a good pair of jeans. Also some nice ankle boots would be good as they go with almost anything and can be dressed up or down. A nice blouse is always good to have and some statement jewellary to go with it like a nice necklace. I think it's always handy to go for skirts and tops with grey or black tights that way you can mix and match your outfits. I like to layer that with a nice chunky cardigan and tie the whole look together with a chunky belt around my waist. If you buy good seperate pieces that you can mix and match with you can't go wrong.
