Michelle Top, Black, £45
Black is always chic, and the off-the-shoulder style is very contemporary. This item is ideal for day trips and nights on the town, as it is a classic piece that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. This is a must-have wardrobe staple, so snap it up!
Cathleen Top, £45
Another garment that will act as an everyday essential, this long-sleeved top is made from 33% organic cotton and is an incredibly simple yet elegant item of clothing that can be worn with jeans, leggings or smart trousers. You can accessorise with necklaces and scarves as you see fit, adding a pop of colour for effect, or keep it plain for a more demure finish.
Peace Jumper, Pink, £85
Made from 100% organic cotton, this jumper is cosy yet cute. Look pretty in peach whilst insisting on peace whilst out and about with this simple yet bold ‘Peace’ jumper. It can also keep you warm on those breezy spring days!
Amari Stripe Jumper, £85
Stripes can be unflattering but this jumper has a subtle pattern that won’t make you look shapeless when you wear it. The colour combination is a flattering mix of mellow tones and is a suitable garment to opt for on those casual kinda days.
Ulla Floral Jumpsuit, £95
Jumpsuits are undeniably classy. With this little number you can look gorgeous at the office or very sophisticated whilst on a night on the tiles. The navy colour will flatter all skin tones and the ruffled sleeves are bang on trend.
Vada Dress, Black, £49
Every lady needs a little black dress in their wardrobe, and this simple yet statement piece may very well be the one for you. You can add jewellery to jazz it up, or stand out from the crowd by teaming it with bright wedge heels…the options are endless!
Claudia Marigold Print Trousers, £85
Be bold and bright in these vibrant trousers that are guaranteed to get a lot of compliments. Pair it with a black bodysuit (strappy or sleeved) and be a real fashionista – or, if you are feeling extra daring, go all out with a matching orange crop top.
Meow Tee, £35
How cute is this? Cat lovers, get your credit card at the ready! This super-sweet tee is new in, and a real steal at £35, so make sure you snap it up. It would look brilliant with navy jeans or plain leggings.
Yoga Colourblock Leggings, Fiesta, £39
