    Want to breath new life into your new season separates? Here are four ways to do just that.

    It’s time to reassess your spring separates for the great seasonal shake-up. Here are four simple ways to welcome in the warmer weather….

    Change your jacket British weather is bonkers but now that spring is in full swing, it’s time to say goodbye to the leather bomber and AW15’s shearling. This season there’s a style to suit EVERYONE. Enter the soft belted trench, offset with masculine loafers, the quilted jackets worn with slouchy boyfriend jeans and flats, the boxy mod-style numbers or a bright long-line tailored cover-up. Which will yours be?

    Rock romantic ruffles Ruffles are everywhere right now and the easiest way to wear the big SS16 trend is in shirt form. The trick is to keep the look minimal, so team a long-sleeved, frilly white shirt with fitted jeans or wide-leg trousers and fancy flats for a chic outfit that’s perfect for everything from work to spring date scenarios. Look to Balmain, Missoni, Prada and Roksanda for all the ruffle inspo your new season wardrobe needs.

    Embrace the midi heel No spring wardrobe is complete without a pair of midi-heels. They were the biggest shoe trend on the fashion week elite and add instant style to any outfit in seconds. Whether you’re after something cutesy with an ankle strap or looking for a flash of metallic to dress up your denim, the high street has spoilt us rotten this season with styles copied straight from the catwalk.
