Marks & Spencer Linen-Blend Wide-Leg Trousers* - I’d order these in a 12. I’m always searching for a dupe for my Toteme Linen Trousers* that I lived in last summer and have just got around to wearing again, and these from M&S seem to tick all the boxes. If you’re after a pair with a slightly more cream tone to them, try these*.
Reformation Clara Cashmere Crew Neck Cardigan in Grass* - I wear a medium. I’m forever impressed by the quality of Reformation cashmere. I have this in navy, and it requires minimal de-pilling, which is always a win in my eyes. I had to share this because of the colour!! It looks very similar to the sold-out Toteme green jumper - you know the one. Side note: if you’re still hunting for a wedding guest dress, give this one a go for something sleek and simple*.
La Ligne Slim Colby Crepe Pants* - I’d order these in a medium. This is turning out to be quite the dupe post, but The Row Gala Pants anyone? I’m always intrigued by those trousers, but they don’t come up for resale all that often and there’s no way I’m dropping over £1k on a pair of trousers, so the dupe route it is. Has anyone given these a go? They look like a relaxed cut that would be perfect for summer.
Whistles Neutral Sam Suede Leather Overshirt* - I’d order this in a medium. I spotted this on Kim’s IG story and INSTANTLY banked it in my list of links to share. Never underestimate Whistles when it comes to jackets - they don’t come to play! They make some of the most-used jackets in my wardrobe. I’m starting to sound like a broken record here, but again - Toteme dupe*?
Whistles Mora Suede Square Toe Loafers* & Burgundy Leather Loafers* - just a quick little aside to mention that the Whistles shoe collection right now features some gems in the loafer department. One is a chocolate suede number with a pretty extreme square toe, which feels a bit Tibi-like to me, and the other is a classic pair of leather loafers that Lucy Alston swears by.
Deiji Studios Linen Tank & Shorts Pyjama Set* - I’d order this in a medium. Look, I know it’s technically a pyjama set, BUT… on those roasting days when you’re lounging around the house and just want to be wearing your pants or for the blistering heat of a holiday abroad, this set would be perfect. Pop on your Emme Parsons Bari Sandals*, a Dragon Diffusion Bag*, and a pair of sunnies, and you’re laughing.
DONNI Boat Neck Sweater*, Taffeta Drawstring Cargo Pants* & Taffeta Shell Top*
There’s been another DONNI spring drop, and OF COURSE, there are pieces that I’m tempted to add to my basket. Namely, the deliciously oversized, relaxed-fit Boat Neck Sweater*, a not too ‘out-there’ but still statement pair of Taffeta Cargo Pants* and one of those sleek black tops* that goes with anything.
I'm throwing in two random picks this week because I’m having a moment with stripe. I spotted this Wool & Cashmere Throw* in one of India Knight’s newsletters and instantly banked it as a future home purchase (a good one to perk up a tired-looking sofa). Then, last weekend, I got around to doing my twice-a-year big clothing shop for my little one, and this Chunky Knit Striped Jumper* was my best buy. I’d size up; not only practical, but kids look so darn cute in oversized knits.
