These few weeks between Winter and Spring are some of the hardest to dress because of the change in weather and its up and down temperatures. It is the right time to put away those Winter woolies but what do you wear now? It’s too cold for t-shirts and bare feet so it’s all about using what you have in your wardrobe and styling it in new ways. Here are 5 outfits to inspire you to look at your wardrobe and re-style pieces you already own, layering clothes and elevating your outfits with accessories and pops of colour.

Stripes never go out of style and this Spring they are even more popular than ever. But it doesn’t have to be confined to the faithful breton, they can be found on everything this season from trousers to shirts and even shoes. It’s a great way to inject some colour into your wardrobe without having to be too bold with colour blocking and stripes can update any outfit.
After a crazy busy few weeks of Autumn and then the Christmas run up I think we are all craving the need for a bit of downtime at home around the Christmas tree. Over the past couple of years we have embraced loungewear and PJ dressing due to the pandemic and we have found many ways to utilise our loungewear into daywear by adding knitted jumpers, sequins and trainers to elevate our styling. Loungewear became our daily uniform during lockdown, while working from home was the norm and comfy co-ords were all we wanted to be wearing. Life may be returning to normal now but we're in no way ready to let go of our relaxed new wardrobe essentials.
If you feel like giving your loungewear a refresh for the colder months, then there's never been a better time to shop. So if you have new PJ’s or loungewear on your Christmas list then let me inspire you with these cosy treats.
MY TOP PICKS
Every party season, the sequin trend rolls around. But this year more than ever it seems to be the only thing that everyone is pushing for the party dressing. Sequins are everywhere! Whether it be in a dress, skirts, tops or trousers, sequins are now the go-to look for any event. Following on from last year’s lockdown none event the way to wear them is with knitwear, oversized roll necks, cable knits or paired back with denim.
This year I have brought a pair of sequin trousers and will be wearing them with a jumper over the next few weeks and quite possibly on Christmas day too. Already in my wardrobe I have a silver sequin pencil skirt, a silver sequin blazer and a navy blue sequin top which I regularly wear and will never detox from my wardrobe - sequins are for life don’t you know! Be wary when buying sequin clothes, make sure the fabric is good quality, its lined so it doesn’t itch against your skin and the sequins are not too thin otherwise they will break. Follow these tips and there is no reason why a sequin piece of clothing isn’t an investment piece that you will always wear and keep.
