There are hundreds of thousands of influencers in the social ether, but there is only a handful who we religiously follow in order to virtually steal the clothes off their backs. Our primary target is Monikh Dale—the London-based styling and shopping guru who seeks out the coolest buys from every corner of the retail world. From her inspiring tips on rewearing her well-chosen investment items to hunting down the best high-street pieces, her Instagram feed, @monikh, and website are a veritable hotbed of things you’re going to want to purchase immediately (and will never regret). Each month, Monikh will share her new picks exclusively for you.
Low Summer is here, and instead of fighting it, I’ve decided to dedicate this month’s shopping edit to dressing for the weather. As the saying goes, there’s no such thing as bad weather, just unsuitable clothing…
A simple shape in an elevated fabric, exactly what I’ve been looking for.
Can you have too many green bags?
Love this with jeans and a kitten heel, the perfect dinner look.
These.
Team with trainers and a jumper around the waist.
The happy medium for this low summer.
This finishes off those simple looks perfectly.
Trench coat season has come early.
I’m really into that blue/grey at the moment
My new go-tos.
Love the colour, and really love the material.
I love wearing black in Summer, and this jacket is a great gateway to that Autumn dressing.
Team this with a pair of fluid wide leg trousers in white or black.
My latest investment, and it goes with everything in my wardrobe.
Basics are always needed.
My latest brand crush. Team with the Toteme jacket.
I wanted a one shoulder dress that was actually comfortable to wear. An elastic neckline and simple belt also help pull in on the waist if wanted. One to last a lifetime.
This blue goes with browns and greens perfectly. The only ‘dressy’ bag needed for holiday.
I love this colour. A great way to spice up your jeans.
Team with a plain vest and flip flops.
I’m obsessed with that sludge green. Very chic…Keep everything else really simple.
A SS23 must have. Plus, the elastic back ensures support and comfort.
Silver is in.
Protect that face!
Simple but very effective.
This dress gives me all the feelings I imagined when designing it.
Another pair that will get people asking ‘where are they from?!’
Pulling your holiday wardrobe? This piece will work from the beach, onto lunch, and onto dinner.
I wore this in white the other week and felt so good in it! I’ve already envisioned where I’ll be wearing this colour-way to.
I’ve had my eye on this for months, maybe even a year? I don’t know why I battled with myself for so long, it’s making every outfit I put on this week come together.
I love the fluted shape.
This will create a really playful shape with the gathered neckline.
