HOW OUR ASOS INSIDERS STYLE BASICS
By Emma Strawbridge, February 4, 2025
The foundations of any outfit lie in the basics. To give you some inspo for the new season and to make your wardrobe feel less, well, basic… we asked our ASOS Insiders what their favorite staples are and how they like to wear them for the office and beyond. Meet Barri-Allison, Bella, Tamara and Grace as they give you a lesson in new-season styling.

BARRI-ALLISON
'I’m leaning into comfort over everything this winter. And what says comfort more than a cozy gray tracksuit? Yes it’s basic, but that’s not always a bad thing. It’s a blank canvas that you can dress up or down. I chose to style mine with a faux-fur jacket (this season’s staple!) and some chunky heeled boots to elevate my look.'

TAMARA
'A tracksuit is my go-to on off-duty days – I love this oversized loungewear look, but I like to keep the top fitted to balance out the proportions. Anyone who knows me will know I’m a glam girlie at heart, so of course I had to add some gold jewelry. I finished off the look with the Stone Street Timberlands – my current obsession!'

BELLA
'This outfit is a go-to for me as a stylist – comfortable but put-together. I styled these by adding a pop of color with red ballet pumps, a matching red bag, black square sunglasses and a lighter-gray sweater tied over the T-shirt. My style inspo for this look was Hailey Bieber and I feel like it's something you can easily recreate with different colorways!'

GRACE
'This look is perfect for keeping cozy in a team meeting – it is possible to be professional in sweat pants! I love that wide-leg sweats are in for the new season, they feel like a cosy blanket but create a cool silhouette. The asymmetric cut of the top elevates the outfit to a new level, plus a white tank works in all situations. I finished the look with chunky silver jewelry and an accessorised slouchy bag.'
