There is something incongruous in writing about spring fashion when flecks of snow are falling outside and the temperature gauge is threatening to drop below zero, but I guess that's fashion for you—always one step ahead of the action. There is a sense of escapism that comes from contemplating the upcoming season—for example & Other Stories just dropped its spring collection, and I can't help but picture myself leisurely grabbing a coffee in a light jacket and jeans, with not a scarf in sight. Sigh.
Personally, I find spring to be one of my favourite seasons fashion-wise because you get the best of both worlds: The creativity and interest of light layers without the logistics of cladding yourself in high-tech, winter-proof outerwear. And of course, there's the sense of hope for longer days and temperate climates. All this is captured in & Other Stories' new season drop, which focuses on a return to classics—something we are always here for.
With unpredictable British weather dictating our outfit choices, we're stocking up on trans-seasonal basics that can be layered up now then dressed down come summer. We're talking clean-lined tailoring, wear-with-everything denim, timeless accessories, and versatile separates. Case in point: a V-neck vest will look fab layered over a roll neck now but just as good worn by itself with a chunky-chain necklace when the mercury rises. Meanwhile, a pair of chain-detail loafers will pair nicely with jeans and a jumper now, then add interest to floaty summer dresses in three months' time. Colour-wise, neutrals are still in the spotlight; however, pops of pastels are creeping in via throw-on cardigans and lightweight quilted jackets.
So, if you're in need of some spring escapism, scroll down to see and shop the & Other Stories new season buys I'm bookmarking right now. Hurry up, March.
