          How to feel Spring when it’s still Winter out there

          March 29, 2018

          The shops are full of prints, but the weather’s not playing fair. Florals from tropical to English garden in full colour are ready to inspire us but it is hard to drop the cosy layers just yet.
          The answer is to wear the colourful flowers but keep the knits and long sleeve t-shirts in neutral layers.

          I was very inspired the other day in Zara and Jigsaw looking at their prints and I have just received my floral button-through dress from French Connection, which I plan to wear over jeans and a long sleeve t-shirt now and as a dress when the warmer days do appear. I’m ready to start feeling Spring.

          French Connection shirt dress, now £75

          Zara shirt dress, £39.99

          How to wear now: Layer over trousers or jeans with loafers or trainers.

          Wide printed trousers are perfect for summer.

          Jigsaw Fuchsia print tree trousers, £140

          How to wear now: Ankle boots, layers and overcoat in neutrals to balance the print impact.

          Inspiration from Pinterest

          Multi print shirts, are a great summer evening layer.

          Zara spot and floral blouse, £25.99

          How to wear now: Layer under tweeds with a pop of colour.

          The maxi ruffle skirt, just perfect with a plain white t-shirt on holiday.

          French Connection wrap ruffle skirt, £95

          How to wear now: Add a oversized knit, cropped or tucked in at the front to show waistline.

          Inspiration on Pinterest

          Floral wrap jacket, easy over swimwear cometh the sunshine.

          Zara patchwork wrap jacket, £29.99

          How to wear now: Layer over polo necks or slim knitwear to warm up the statement.

          Now just add wellies and you’re ready (maybe a raincoat and umbrella to be on the safe side!)

          Moving through my forties I've gained confidence to believe in 'style over trends' - quality wins (most of the time) and not to take it all too seriously. A great jacket is always my motto, and I like to play about with old and new and mix in some craft ideas too. I work with lovely clients who want a concise wardrobe or a unique outfit for a special occasion. I hope to inspire you.
