We don't need too much encouragement here in the UK to believe that summer is on its way, just two consecutive days of sunshine is enough to set us scouring through our wardrobes for the summer clothes that we have stored away, followed by a quick trip to the shops either online or on the High Street to add some more things to that stash. One of the big problems with our weather is that there are so many clothes that we only wear on holiday in warmer countries so they never seem to wear out. We get sick of the sight of them way before they really need sending for recycling, but no matter we still keep adding to the haul.
Very on-trend, being double breasted with deep lapels and patch pockets, this Madeleine jacket is 86% cotton and 13% polyester so the perfect weight for early summer
The deep wash jeans are from Ted Baker and purchased at their outlet store at Cheshire Oaks, boots are from Russell and Bromley and are their Crystabel design with trapezoid block heel with statement silver back and hardware. They are a perfect height for walking city streets but the black suede and extra design features make them ideal for day or evening wear.
I couldn't resist this top from Mint Velvet at £59. It is their Ink knotted Tee, a linen blend ribbed tee with knot detailing to add a point of interest to a classic design and flattering sleeve length, also available in Ivory and Bluebell.
Last up is a shirt that my daughter passed onto me which came from Warehouse. I love this length of shirt as I think it is perfect for day and evening wear and the fabulous tie sleeve detailing of this one just added to its appeal. Sadly it is no longer available online but there are plenty of alternatives out there particularly with the tie sleeves, which would appear to be a a key feature this season - it remains to be seen how much I manage to get in my food!
