While I am definitely a winter dresser at heart, there comes a certain point every February when I become beyond bored of wearing jumpers every day. I miss my light jackets and my blouses, my loafers and my midi dresses, and would love to be able to go for a walk without having to cover up every inch of exposed skin. Well, if the weather reports are anything to go by, this week is finally seeing temperatures tentatively creep above 10 degrees, which in my books means it's officially time to bring out the spring styling. Luckily, Arket is ready, waiting, and armed with the ultimate new season capsule.
Living up to its reputation for delivering clean-lined staples with a Scandi-girl twist, Arket's spring drop will not disappoint OG fans. Coming in a cool colour palette of creams, beiges, greys, and pale blue, it lends itself perfectly to a mix-and-match approach, which not only means speedier styling in the morning but also more bang for your buck in the long term. The aesthetic this spring is very much polished basics, which will cater just as well for home-working as it will for casual weekend walks. Expect simple tees paired with tailored trousers and straight-leg jeans styled with polished blazers and loafers. Perfection.
To give you a more practical idea of how to style the collection, I've put together five outfits that will help you kick off the new season in style. It's really proof of the edit's versatility that it was so quick to put together—it certainly bodes well for our wardrobes anyway. Scroll down to see and shop my Arket spring outfits.
