Spring Wishlist

It’s about this time of year when the first signs of spring start to rear its head and our winter layers and thick knits become redundant wardrobe items. It’s getting warm enough to consider getting your legs waxed for the first time of the year but not quite warm enough for summer dresses.

This time of year can be a little bit of a sartorial conundrum, the trick to effective spring dressing is all about layers that you can put on or take off as the weather changes. We can’t get enough of the sports luxe look that has been around for what seems like ages but has transformed into something luxe and sophisticated.

So we’ve put together some of our favorite items that we’ve been lusting after for a while and would make perfect additions to any spring wardrobe.

1. ASOS backpack in Croc – ASOS.com - £38 – Perfect for storing all your emergency layers and pair of sandals for if the weather really does heat up.

2. Adrianne Bermuda Short – Whistles.co.uk - £125 – This season shorts are slightly less… short. It’s all about the mid-length Bermuda short.
