01

The Trench

I tried on this Camilla & Marc trench at a press day recently and it has been living in my head ever since. The lightweight fabric, the modern shape, the wash – it’s truly the best trench I have seen in a long time.

The Shorts

I live in denim all year round, so summer swaps will include these longer-line shorts from ARKET. The darker wash feels a bit smarter and therefore more appropriate for the office.

The Shoes

Miu Miu has brought deck shoes back and I’m on board. I’ll be wearing them with a simple tee and oversized jeans.

The Separate

Amsterdam-based Rohe is one of my favourite brands for modern classics with a twist. I often default to separates for events, as you can get so much more wear out of those pieces – this top would work just as well with tailored trousers for something formal or with long denim shorts and strappy sandals for the office.

The Bag

Massimo Dutti really is leading the way on the high street right now – the new collection looks so expensive. This canvas tote will be the perfect summer bag.

The Blazer

A cream blazer plays an essential role in my spring/summer wardrobe – it’s perfect for work or for dressing up day-to-night looks. I love the collarless feature on this Nanushka one – it feels a bit more modern, and the removable belt is a great way to add more shape.

The Top

Red is still big news this season, and I’ve always been partial to a stripe in the summer, so this oversized top from Posse would slot seamlessly into my wardrobe.

The Sunnies

I’m very loyal to my Ray-Ban Wayfarers but these Chimi brown shades have really caught my eye. I love the more feminine shape.
