Don’t worry. We’ve got you covered. With lovely layers, gorgeous accessories and plenty of holiday looks. Your summer is sorted.
Be on it with sizzling BBQ style
You can’t beat a summer barbecue with great friends and great food. We’ve got the look nailed for you with our head turning Broderie Anglais Blouse in stunning scarlet. Easy going style, in a loose fit, with sweet balloon sleeves, in case the temperature tails off.
Team it with easy-to-wear Cotton Rich Pull-on Trousers for a comfy, flattering look. Details like perfectly placed pockets, a straight cut leg and a stretch waist makes these a top choice to throw on and enjoy the fun.
Tiny touches with a big impact
When you’re going to a barbecue and you’re wandering on grass you need unsinkable shoes. We’d choose trainers or these delightful Piedical sandals. They hug your foot offering wonderful support and have easy, touch fasten buckles. Choose from blue or versatile beige.
A handy, compact bag is an absolute must for an afternoon barbecue and we love this one. It’s an Envy Leather bag, in black, camel or blue. There are two handy zip compartments so you can keep everything organised. It’s also a crossbody style so your are hands free to grab a burger and a drink!
And finally pop on a sprinkle of sparkles. Timeless Gold Clip-on Earrings bring the bling. Gold plated, with sparkling stones, they’re look and feel glam without any effort.
Big occasions for big statement dressing
Weddings, Christenings, big birthdays, summer’s the time it’s all going on. If you want to make waves, this is the look for you. Our Tailored Stretch Short Sleeve Shift Dress is a beautiful fit, in bright, happy florals. Perfect to celebrate any occasion. You’ll love the Tunisian style open V-neck and short sleeves for a little coverage.
Pair it with a classically elegant Jacket in Ecru for a sharp tailored look that’s neat and fresh. A hook and eye fastening at the collarless neck make this ideal layer simplicity itself. For extra wear pop it with your favourite jeans and you’re good to go.
Accessories that make all the difference
The right shoes, bag and jewellery can really bring an outfit together whether you’re going for a casual look or dressing to the nines. We love these comfy but Smart Court Shoes in gold, black or pink to really zhuzh up an outfit. The heel is great for garden parties too. No sinking into the lawn.
A Faux Leather Clutch Bag is a simple yet refined accessory. The removable chain strap is a lovely detail, while inside you’ll find a discreet pocket for lipstick or a key. In ivory, it’s definitely a keeper.
For a finishing touch, we have a beautiful Necklace, Bracelet and Earring Set. Designed as a necklace of gold plated kisses, it’s a stunning set that adds that understated glint of style.
