The Spring/Summer Edit: Pieces to Wear on Repeat
A spring and summer wardrobe comes together when the pieces you love work with the life you lead. A dress for lunch that feels just as right on a weekend away. A shirt that pairs with your favourite trousers. A light knit for the change in temperature after sunset.
This season, start with a few considered additions and build around what you already wear. Here are five outfit ideas to make getting dressed feel a little easier.
A printed dress for a long lunch
The POL Botanica Day Dress brings a botanical print to cotton shirting. Let the dress lead the outfit with simple sandals and a small bag. Its matching tie belt gives you another way to wear it, depending on your preferred shape.
Keep accessories understated and choose a light layer for cooler evenings. A printed dress can feel quite different with a change of shoes, making it useful for both everyday plans and occasions.
A shirt and trousers for everyday plans
Pair the Mela Purdie Stand Shirt with the Lino Pant for a tonal look in Stucco. The petite stand collar and textured trousers give the combination interest. Wear with flats for daytime or change to a low heel for dinner.
A striped knit for the weekend
Try the Toorallie Relaxed Stripe Knit Tee with cropped trousers and comfortable flats. Its lightweight summer yarn and relaxed silhouette make it a useful starting point for spring dressing.
Wear it loose for an easy shape, or try a small front tuck with a wider trouser. A simple stripe brings detail to an outfit without needing much else.
A botanical shirt with simple separates
The boxy POL Botanica Stripe Shirt works well with a plain trouser or skirt. Choose a colour already present in the print to bring the outfit together, and adjust the cuffs to suit your preferred sleeve length.
A tank and skirt for warmer days
The POL Frankie Button Tank has a gently flared shape in a linen and lyocell blend. Pair it with a favourite skirt or denim, letting the button detailing add interest. Simple sandals finish the look.
Make your seasonal wardrobe work harder
Before adding a piece, think of three ways you could wear it with your existing wardrobe. Consider the fabric, care instructions and fit, then try the whole outfit with your usual shoes. A piece earns its place when you can imagine reaching for it often.
