To clarify, the title of this story refers to my shopping for fashion items. I say that because while I’ve been buying less clothing and fewer shoes and accessories lately, I’ve been spending more money on groceries and household cleaning products than ever.

Nonetheless, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit to doing a little extracurricular adding-to-cart here and there, even if it’s just browsing. Yes, I am, of course, prioritising the rational self-quarantine essentials first, but I can’t help but have a look at stay-at-home fashion items such as cosy slippers, cute loungewear and cool-feeling basics that I can wear both now and later, too. As they say—old habits die hard. To shop all the wearable-but-interesting basics I’m eyeing right now, just keep scrolling.

I can’t be the only one who still loves wearing black in spring and summer.

Of course, I’m eyeing the matching sweats, too.

Sporty sandals, meet pink mock croc.

There’s no such thing as too many cool tanks.

Long shorts are very important right now.

I love everything about this, from the print to the cut to the colour.

I’ve been wanting a single, chunky gold ring, and this just might be the lucky winner.

Tie-dye print clothing has been a major mood-lifter for me lately. Shop the matching Milan Biker Shorts ($90).

Ripped jeans are in the middle of a comeback, and I’d like to be part of it.

Just so cute.

I think this speaks for itself.

You’ll never get sick of these sandals. They’ll look good with dresses, jeans, skirts or anything else.

My spring motto is tanks, tanks and more tanks.

If there were ever a dress to wear at home, this would be it.

I’ll never think of a slip skirt the same again.

I’m very into shackets these days.

From the colour to the strap detail, everything about this baguette bag is just better.

I’m a sucker for anything in this colour.

Since, as you may have heard, baggy jeans are back.

I’ve been eyeing these for so long.

Voluminous dresses are going to be a staple this summer.

It’s not a regular T-shirt. It’s a cool T-shirt.

Everything feels forward in beige.

If you know, you know.

Just add sandals.

Puff sleeves make everything better.

I’m taking notes on the styling, too.

Little touches make a big difference.

There’s always a goal pick.

I’m not usually that into brown, but this bag really speaks to me.

Low risk, high reward.
