I am itching to get my spring looks out there, but the weather is not cooperating. My mother-in-law once said to me that there’s no such thing as bad weather, just a bad choice of clothing. And that’s really stuck with me. Dressing appropriately for the weather is something that I really work into my look, mainly to ensure that I can get on with my day seamlessly. Those hours whilst my baby’s at nursery are precious!
So, this month’s edit is dedicated to the girls who, like me, are desperate to jump into new season but are battling cold temperatures…Look no further, this is how to do it with our ongoing wintery weather.
This is a great neutral tone to keep that fresh spring vibe whilst still keeping you warm.
I love this style. I tend to go a little more boho in the warmer months and accessories are the perfect way to start to move into new season.
The trend is already huge, don’t miss out.
I tried this on at Liberty and I instantly fell in love. I’ll wear it now with a t-shirt underneath and my baggy jeans,
Would be a great combo with the above knit.
Not new, but a great way to start bringing in that basket bag style.
Get in a size bigger. Wear with trainers and bomber jacket.
Start introducing a little spring colour to revive your winter trousers.
I love the fit on these. And the darker denim is great for an eveing option.
This is a similar shape to the trench coat I’ve been wearing. It goes with everything, and the unusual length creates a really interesting proportion.
Something you will keep going back to. Wear with jumpers, t-shirts, shirts. A key piece.
I love the tone of this, perfect layered up or simply on it’s own with the above skirt.
This colour is one of my neutrals, it goes with everything.

Need to spice up your knitwear? Look no further…
Denim jackets are everywhere. This flared sleeve style might just be my fave so far.
The perfect layering tool. I love it done up and tucked into jeans.

I’ll wear this back to front.
I love how thin these layers are. Perfect with the parachute trousers.
Super classic and wearable, this dress will carry you through all the seasons. In spring/summer wear with flip flops and a basket bag before styling with a roll neck and thermals underneath, a big chunky cardigan and trainers in autumn.
So chic. A forever piece.
A slightly dresser jeans and tee option.
I’ll be doing double denim a lot in spring.
