Call it delaying the inevitable, but we can’t seem to let go of any burst of warmth and colour. The vibrant, whimsical illustrated handbag and silk scarf from Christian Dior may just do the trick of injecting sunny, positive vibes into the dreariest of winter days.

Tiny Dancer

Fall into step with a ballerina inspired wardrobe. Taking cues from both traditional depictions and modern interpretations, a dreamy mix of romantic tulle and ruffled detailing sit alongside flowy silks and slouchy knits. An ethereal palette of blush, champagne and rose are paired with sleek black for a stark yet elegant contrast.

Nine To Five

Gone are the days when a boring pantsuit would suffice. Be it climbing the corporate ladder or running a business from home, having a smart capsule wardrobe of work-ready attire is essential. A perfectly interchangeable curation of chic tailoring, sophisticated separates and quirky touches makes sure each day is started off on the right foot.

 

 

 

 

 

Style Tip:

Get the most wear from dresses by layering with jumpers, an open shirt or worn over a turtleneck.

Field Flowers

Look to nature’s best for a palette sure to brighten up winter’s grey days. Luscious tones of marigold, daffodil and primrose come to life against lavender, crocus and lupine shades. Cheery and striking, this colour combo will put a smile on your face as well as a spring in your step.

 

 

 

Style Tip:

For a subtle approach, pair a pastel hued top with denim and a pop of contrasting earrings or shoes.
