As a team, it's fair to say we've had a little more time on our hands with our new WFH setup, and this has presented an ideal opportunity to do a thorough wardrobe spring clean.
Over the last couple of weeks, we've all taken time to comb through our closets to ensure we're starting the new season with the best possible setup. The results have been illuminating, and we've not only rediscovered old favourites but also identified those gaps in need of filling in (this means it's goodbye to mindless purchases). All-in-all, we want a versatile capsule filled with items we actually want to wear and will continue to love for many seasons to come.
We could not recommend this unexpectedly cathartic process enough this season. So whether you're in need of a few gap-fillers as the warm weather creeps in, or simply crave a bit of inspo to help you inject some life into pre-loved pieces, we've done the hard work for you and picked the best of the best on the high street right now.
