Prepping your wardrobe for the coming season.
With autumn fast approaching there’s no better time to delve into your wardrobe and assess items that you need.We always advise getting as much wear as possible from each item you purchase so having a try on is often a great way to create some new outfits from older pieces. You can also decide if anything needs rehoming at either your local preloved store, charity shop for much loved but well worn or sell on one of the online platforms. Sometimes a garment just no longer works for us or we reach for other items instead; this signifies it’s time to clear the dead wood.

Hi, I’m Becky—though most people call me Bec. With over 25 years in the fashion industry, my journey began as a retail assistant in small designer boutiques. As my passion for fashion grew and people took an interest in my personal style, I moved into freelance styling and personal shopping, which I’ve been dedicated to ever since.
With the days gradually becoming longer we long to switch our layers up a little whilst still staying cosy.
We always favour good jersey basics as a starting point and sustainable British brand Elliot produces the best quality that is also well cut for most women and super comfortable to wear against the skin. Whether it be a long sleeved tee or a vest these items can add interest by either allowing the hem to hang below your top layer or ruche your sleeves up to show the jersey sleeve underneath.
Shopping the Sales with a Mindful Approach...
