How to enjoy the outdoors in a cool capsule wardrobe

The summer holidays are racing towards us. The sun is shining and the ice-cream vans are chiming. What have you got planned? We’re going to show you how to breeze through summer looking fabulous and feeling amazing in our Botanicals Collection.

The new Botanicals Collection

We created nature inspired prints in seasonal fabrics like soft cotton and stretchy viscose, combined with pretty details for a feminine touch. Choose from gorgeous tops, laid back trousers and a sleepwear collection that’s completely mix and match. Check out the blog right here. Even better, it’s all made with your comfort in mind, as always.

Squeeze the most out of summer outdoors!

Whether you’re planning on going strawberry picking with the family, popping to fragrant lavender fields or heading to the coast, we’ve got a range of stunning looks to put together.

For those casual days when you want to look great and be super comfy, our gorgeous tops are just the ticket. Choose the vibrant Leaf Print Blouse. It has a simple Tunisian neckline and a frill around the short sleeves for a little flourish.  

To elevate a plain T-shirt, you could go for our Pointelle Short Sleeved Jumper, with its super fine knit for summer, short sleeves and subtle self pattern. In a beautiful burnt orange, the colour pops against cream jeans, trousers and shorts.

Trousers to temp you all summer long

Now you’ve got the tops sorted, what about all over comfort? We love these easy going styles. Our go-to for your casual look is the 7/8 Botanical Print Trousers in green and cream. In lovely soft jersey fabric with stretch built in, they’re comfy, while the wide leg style is right on-trend. Brilliant with our Pointelle Short Sleeved Jumper for warmer days.

To keep it smart how about the cream Tailored Trousers. Perfect with the Leaf Print Blouse, bursting with patterns, they let the top do the talking. In a straight leg cut with a touch of stretch fabric, they offer a smooth, sleek fit.

Love getting out and about?

There’s no better time to make the most of the outdoors, with long, warm days and lovely light evenings. And there are plenty of great activities to keep you busy. From stately homes with manicured gardens with the National Trust, to local open air theatres and even Drive-In Movies.

Our gorgeous Printed Tiered Hem Dress is a great choice. Such a good length, with frilled sleeves, an eye catching neckline and a flattering tie belt, it’s perfect for wandering parks and grounds.

We love the Yorkshire Sculpture Park where long standing art exhibits rub shoulders with inspiring new pieces, all nestling in amongst the rolling hills. And the café’s not bad either.

Or how about a stroll on Hampstead Heath with a picnic to fuel up and enjoy the views. And don’t forget good old PYO raspberries, blackcurrants, beetroot and more. Lots of local farms offer this and we love Parkside Farm in Middlesex. Remember to book.

Your summer wardrobe fix

Boho chic top and cream relaxed trousers

Wherever you’re heading this summer, a capsule wardrobe is a great idea. With outfits you can mix and match, from tops to bottoms for lots of different looks. Here are the last of our top picks.

Choose our lovely Boho Chic Top in three colours, with its beautiful border round the cuffs and hem. This goes so well with Cream Relaxed Trousers, in cool cotton. With pockets and a tie waist, they’re just what you need to go exploring.

Short sleeved blouse and button through blue skirt

Another winner is our brilliant white, Short Sleeved Blouse. Ideal for days when you want to feel smart-but-not-too-smart. Cool cotton fabric and a loose fit make it spot on for warmer weather, and when you pair it with our tiered Button-Through Skirt in the most delicate blue, you know you’re on to something good.

Super smart sandals and trendy trainers

Adjustable leather sandals and zip opening Amortyl trainers

To finish the whole look, you need a reliably comfy pair of trainers or sandals. Or maybe both! Why not? We’ve gone for Adjustable Leather Sandals with a deep sole and touch fastenings. Available in two colours.

As for the trainers, we chose Zip Opening Amortyl Trainers. Easy to get on and off, plus they still have all the comfort you’d expect from Amortyl. The removeable sole, arch support, supple leather. You name it, Amortyl has it.
