Spring Clothing Wish List

Well there was that one week, where everyone got super excited (and terrified!), about the rise in temperature. I mean, I saw guys in shorts and T-shirt’s, and I didn’t wear a coat for two days!! As much as I am not into this global warming, I am looking forward to the warmer weather and it got me thinking about the pieces I need to add to my wardrobe to be ready for Spring. Below I have listed my wish list for when things get a little warmer ...

1. M&S Ribbed Polo Neck // The perfect under layer for a Summer dress to make it Spring transitional ready.

2. New Look Lace Up Hiker Boots // I’m loving the biker boot trend, I’ll be pairing these with a floaty midi skirt.
3. Topshop Fitted Western Denim Jacket // The denim jacket has always been the perfect Spring/Summer throw on, and I’ve never owned one! I think now is the time ...

4. Stradivarius Flowing Blazer // Getting inspiration from Allana Davison, I am after a longline blazer to pair with straight leg jeans, a plain tee and heels!
5. And Other Stories Straight Mid Rise Jeans // I must admit, I have moved to the other side. Straight Leg Jeans! And I won’t be turning back ... this colour would be a great addition and I love And Other Stories’ denim.

6. Miss Selfridge Khaki Linen Stripe Co-ord // Now this would be like wearing PJs and I am so here for it! With some mules and a straw bag, I’m all set.

7. ASOS Design Polka Dot Midi Skirt // Smart enough for work, paired with trainers and a plain tee. The perfect Spring outfit.

8. Zara Contrast Ring Earrings // I’ve always loved big earrings, I was there for the chandelier earrings in the early 2000’s. So I’m expanding my collections with lots of materials, shapes and colours. And these from Zara would be a great addition.
9. Cos Loose-Fit Seersucker Shirt // A fab twist on a classic, what’s more to say?
10. Mango Classic Trench with Bows - The perfect transitional coat. The trench can also smarten any outfit!

Spring Fashion Staples

Seeing as we are in full Spring now, and the weather is starting to warm up *fingers crossed*, I thought I would share with you my favourite Spring clothing items to throw on in one of my favourite times of year!

Striped T-Shirt

The striped t-shirt is such a classic, like the LBD. And this Spring is no different, all of the high street and online stores have different styles, colours and stripe sizes, so you are bound to find one that suits you. It can be dressed up with skinny jeans and heels, or dressed down with boyfriend jeans and trainers and perfect for this time of year.

Cropped jeans

Jeans are all cropped this season! If you're brave enough then the cropped flare is the biggest trend of the season. I am not that brave so will be purchasing some cropped skinny jeans instead, showing just that hint of ankle (Give it a bit of sun ready for Summer), if you get the right length for your height then they can lengthen your legs.

Chambray Shirt
Another classic trend, making a bigger mark this season is the Chambray Shirt. These are so versatile, and you can always find one to fit your style. Long, cropped, fitted, baggy, wear them open or buttoned all the way to the top! (See I told you they were versatile!)

Bomber Jackets
The epitome of an off day outer layer, bombers are everywhere this season. They are the perfect item to just throw on over your casual day outfit or to dress down your evening look! A black bomber is a classic, but why not jazz it up with a ___ one?!

White Trainers
I cannot tell you how happy I am that trainers are still here, and they seem to be staying. Throw on you cropped jeans with some Stan Smiths or KSwiss and you're ready to go! In the evening pair these with a lose dress and a bomber jacket for a casual Spring evening look.
