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.
A secondary layer of a good shirt or tunic is both functional and easy to style in whatever shape you prefer. Play around with collars and different ways of tucking into your trousers or skirt. When it’s chilly a fine jersey polo neck also looks great under your shirt.
Why not make use of a tank or vest to layer over the top, we love the Vic + Bert knit vests which work perfectly for this and then they can be worn with a short sleeve tee or vest in the summer months.
A lightweight jacket that can be worn almost as a cardigan layer is a great investment as it will carry you through most of the year buy adjusting your layers. Aequamente favourites in their crinkle cotton fabric work particularly well for this look and add texture too.
Good spring trousers are a must in our book and you can always wear long socks underneath for extra warmth. We have chosen some key styles from Vic + Bert for the spring but if a skirt is your thing then layer with leggings until it’s warmer.
We hope you enjoy the newness of all that the Spring season brings!
