It's almost summer and I find myself getting swept up in visions of a European holiday surrounded by seaside villages and breathtaking beaches.  And while I'm not quite there just yet, why not curate a look inspired by vision?  

All white is somewhat of an iconic choice when it comes to holiday style.  But with so many extensive ways to wear it, the possibilities are quite endless.  For this look here, I've decide to go for a slightly more elevated while still being summer forward inspired by Lydia Tomlinson for NA-KD fashion.

A white maxi skirt is always a good choice and must-have staple for me it seems.  This version is one of the (what feels like millions) of style options available at the minute.  I've paired it with an equally billowy  white square neck top that so effortlessly complements the skirt below it.  This look is easy and achievable  whether your strolling the streets or heading to a romantic dinner.  It simply works.

I chose to keep the look simple by styling it with some classic tan slide sandals, a gorgeous leather handbag and a pair of tortoise shell sunglasses to round it all out.  Some pretty gold earrings really lend a lovely bit of polish to the whole thing especially if you're wearing a sleek low bun.

So, that is my latest take on how to style summer at the minute.  Easy, elegant and versatile enough to suit almost any occasion.  Stay tuned as we begin working our way into the (thankfully) warmer months.  Shoppable pieces have been linked for you down below.  Thanks so much for reading along, see you next time!

While we had a tease of overly warm weather earlier this month, spring has gone back to its unpredictable pattern and with it comes those slightly cooler days where you're reaching for a layer of warmth while trying to look season forward.  With all that in mind, I've created today's look featuring some spring-friendly layers that you can peel back or put depend depend upon the mood of the day.

I'm sure you're already quite familiar with the fact that this skirt seems to be everywhere at the minute.  And while I generally don't gravitate towards fads of the minute, I do think that this is worth considering as despite being rather popular right now, it is also a staple item that I think you will get a lot of use out of now as well as many seasons to come.

Available in several colors, today I'm reaching for the white color way to help propel the look into the warmer season.  And much like so many of the pieces we are all wearing at the minute, layering is key.  A nice, well-fitting tank top will work especially well for this without having to give it very much thought.  I settled on the black option and opted to pair it with this (suddenly showing up everywhere!) black bomber jacket.  I do enjoy a bit of a monochromatic look from time to time and these two pieces fit the bill on top.  

I later choose these MaryJane style ballet flats also in black to give the look a cohesive feel as it leads your eye to travel from top to bottom.  A couple neutral accessories and bits of gold round out the entire outfit while creating the perfect spring look to take you just about anywhere you may want to go.

The items I mentioned here are linked below along with several similar options.  Please let me know how you like them!  Wishing you all a lovely spring!

Spring styling is hitting its stride with anticipation of warmer days ahead.  For some of us though, a new season can cause some undue stress when it comes to deciding what to wear.  Today's post solves that dilemma with some classic pieces and unexpected pairings that lead to a variety of wearable options.

Perhaps the most sought after item shown here is the very popular denim maxi skirt.  This piece is such an iconic staple that has been long worn throughout the years and even decades.  Still, new lengths and shapes give it a new sense of purpose while really freshening it up quite a bit.  

I've styled mine with some other equally classic springtime pieces that work so effortlessly well to put and pull the look together.  The basic white t-shirt will forever be in style in my eyes.  This one offers a bit of shape by flattering waistline and shoulders.  It could also be easily worn with a nice pair of denim jeans or a pair of summery linen trousers.  

A trenchcoat is a must-have for me for three out of four seasons of the year.  Classic tan is my go-to pick most days but I have also seen some really smart black, khaki and navy options as well.  This pair of Sambas are on repeat for me and somehow they seem to work quite well with so much of what I'm wearing.  Here they lend a casual yet updated feel to the outfit and make it so easy to wear.

Finally, a timeless handbag will never lead you astray and this one has all the qualities a look for in a great bag.  From size to shape to color, it really just checks all the boxes.  

So many simple yet stylish looks can easily be arrived at with just a few well-chosen items that work well together while doing double duty with so many of the other items already waiting in your closet.  These and similar items are linked below.  

Thanks so much for sharing part of your day with me.  Here's to inspiring you to reach for the items you own that keep you feeling your very best.  Thanks for reading!

Well hello new season!  It's officially transitional dressing weather and today's post features some key pieces that will help you navigate those in between moments that can sometimes be tricky to dress for.  One key piece I find myself reaching for throughout March and April is the camel trench coat.  Honestly, this is a staple item that can really be worn nearly year round in some places which makes it the perfect piece to layer right now.  This version is a perfect shade of neutral and pairs just as well with smart trousers, jumpers and blouses as it does with a sweatshirt and some laidback joggers.  

Another much loved piece at the minute is the cardigan sweater.  I love an easy version of this piece done in either a solid or perhaps like you see this one here featuring the classic black and white stripe.  I particularly think that the button detail lends a bit of interest to the piece and the look you'll be creating.  I especially love it with these trousers and a pair of trainers alongside a classic handbag and some gold hoops for a casual springtime look.

This style snapshot adheres to the three color rule which naturally delights me with its endless possibilities.  These items are linked below in case you also find something you like.  They may also resemble pieces you already own and simply give you a new perspective on how to style them heading into the spring days ahead.  Either way, enjoy the hopefully warmer days ahead as we welcome the transitional season!

While it's true that I am a hardcore lover of neutrals all year round, there is just something so chic and smart about monochrome dressing winter.  With hues of cream, ebony and most notably grey leading the way, it is safe to say that these looks have my full attention at the minute.

Today's look features a bit of all three done in such cosy, warm fabrics that you'll find yourself never wanting to take them off.  And with winter being such long season, that is a very good thing.  Chunky knits and roomy turtlenecks are some of my favorite picks for the time of year.  H&M and & Other Stories do some really nice ones that fit well and work with a lot of the pieces I already own in my wardrobe.  

Denim trousers bring a relaxed feel to the outfit while still allowing for a pulled together look when done in this darker wash.  This pair can be worn now with all your favorite knits and transition to blouses and crisp shirts come springtime.

Added touches always make (or sometimes break) the look so tread lightly with your accessories if you want to create a true minimalist chic statement.  I feel that these pieces so easily do that which is why I reach for them so often.  This beanie by Ganni is so warm and snug.  In fact, this entire line is quickly becoming one of my latest favorites.  I definitely say it's worth a look if it isn't already on your radar.

Finish it all off by wrapping up in beautiful warm, wool coat that effortlessly ties the entire look together as opposed to covering it up like so many coats from yesterday.  This one is gorgeous and can easily be worn casually as well as with more elevated looks.

I love it when an outfit comes together like that, especially in wintertime.  Links for these pieces are available in the thumbnails below.  As always, thank you so much for spending a few minutes here with me today.  I hope you feel inspired!
