Topshop Boutique's new season collections are always highly anticipated. Who doesn't love the high street giant's trend-led styles and wardrobe classics? And its latest drop has to be its most exciting yet.
Boutique has been knocking around for some time now, and is seen as Unique's sister collection. It's priced slightly higher than most Topshop wares, and ever so slightly less than the Unique mainline collection, but that extra spend is well worth the investment.
The sleek Boutique wardrobe is carefully developed with lashings of premium fabrics and luxe prints and is perfect for those looking for something a little bit cooler for their capsule spring wardrobe.
Expect to find minimalist slip dresses in the new line-up, alongside some polished tailoring and even some on-point kimono style details. Slouchy knits, wide-leg pants and just-the-right length skirts also feature heavily. Palette-wise, it's the classic and highly versatile navy, grey and khaki we've come to expect and rely on Topshop Boutique for, but for SS16, there's a smattering of oversized daisy prints and a really covetable mustard hue which will prove invaluable for those who are colour-shy or looking for a subtle way to revive new season looks.
Hero pieces will always be a key feature for Boutique, and this season sees the leather biker come in two oversized shapes that are perfect for wearing over all those on-trend slip dresses. For something a little different, look to the to-die-for suede Harrington jacket, but be quick, these new season buys won't be in stores for long.
On top of the signature cover-ups, there s also a handful of utility shirts, jackets and dresses which make for the perfect off-duty get-upas well as a cool-girl way to dress down silk pants and more luxed-up looks. Our top pick? It s a tough call between the pinstripe tailoring and the so-SS16 midi skirts but our stand-out must-buy from the collection has to be the on-trend block heel pumps - just the right height and in new season hues -what s not to love? So chic, so classic and so perfect for the impending leg-baring weather.Click through to see the new Topshop Boutique spring collection now
