But whether you're tall, petite, athletic, or curvy, there are a few pieces that are just universally flattering and deserves a top spot in your cabinets! To find out what these are, we asked Liza Soberano's go-to stylist Perry Tabora to list them all down so we can stock up on these fashion investments.

The Little Black Dress (LBD)

The little black dress will be forever be the most versatile piece of clothing you can and should be able to find in your wardrobe. You can wear to fun night out with your blockmates or even to a regular school day! Dress it up with a pair of cute heels or dress it down with a pair of comfy flats.

A-Line Skirt

P1490, Stradivarius

An A-Line skirt will easily give your body a nice silhouette as it nips and flares at all the right places. It also comes in different fabrics—from leather to fun prints—which can add texture and character to any look in a snap.

Basic Black or White Low Scoop Neck Tee

Wearing a low scoop neck tee is a good style hack to instantly look slimmer because it highlights your collarbones. It also serves as a nice canvas piece since you can easily pair it with a skirt or a pair of pants, and layer it with a denim or leather jacket for a cool look for the day.

When I’m not busy as a bee playing with fifty shades of pink lippies, you can probably catch me swiping my plastic for yet another pair of shiny, pointed gold flats.
