There’s nothing like the start of the season to add some beautiful new pieces to your wardrobe. With new season fashion arriving at St. Collins Lane – it’s the perfect time to add new pieces to your collection.
Dress
When adding spring pieces to your wardrobe it’s easy to get excited for the warmer days ahead, however living in Melbourne means you need to prepare for four seasons in a day! With that in mind, a long-sleeved dress is the perfect piece to celebrate spring fashion whilst keeping warm on those cooler days.
The Satin bow print pleated dress from Maje is a beautiful mid-length dress with just the right amount of movement. Cinched at the waist and featuring a pleated skirt, this versatile dress can be effortlessly styled with sneakers, sandals or boots and paired with a coat, denim jacket, or worn on its own.
Light wash jeans
Nothing says spring like a great pair of light wash jeans and when it comes to denim, you can’t go wrong the Quay jeans from Reiss. A perfect weekend staple, the Quay jeans are designed to sit comfortably on your hip and feature a slim thigh and tapered hem for the perfect fit. Plus, the quay jeans are made using ‘Better Cotton’ – as part of Reiss’s partnership with the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) to improve cotton farming globally.
Loafers
Perfect for the days when you want to be prepared no matter the weather, the Isabel loafers from Coach are a chic and practical slip-on shoe. Made from Coach’s smooth leather, this loafer is a sophisticated, ultra-chic shoe with a rubber sole for great traction and cushiony memory foam padding for all-day comfort.
Chinos
No spring wardrobe is complete without a pair of light-wash trousers or chinos. The Thomas Road Chino Pant from Rodd & Gunn is made from ultra-smooth cotton sateen fabric, with a brushed effect for ultimate comfort. Woven in Italy and enriched with a small amount of stretch to allow for greater movement and durability – a good pair of chinos is a trusty wardrobe staple that is perfect for the warmer months.
New bag
Celebrate the season of colour with a beautiful new spring-inspired bag. The Makeup Vachetta Leather Semi-Circular Bag from Adolfo Dominguez is the peach-coloured bag of your dreams. Featuring a large compartment, adjustable shoulder strap and zipper, this colourful bag is created from vachetta leather – which naturally gets softer the more you use it.
Denim Jacket
You can’t go wrong with a denim jacket during the transeasonal months. The Kioky Eco Denim Jacket from Zadig & Voltaire is a beautiful mid wash denim jacket which features a unique embroidered floral detail on the sleeves. This gorgeous jacket has also been created using less water, less electricity and fewer chemicals, making its production more environmentally friendly.
Long sleeve shirt
Another piece that nods to floral fashion but is perfect for the unpredictable Melbourne weather is this floaty printed silk shirt from Sandro. Created from 100% silk, this on-trend ‘70s-esque shirt features a round neckline and long sleeves. A lovely layering piece, pair this shirt with a dark jacket on cooler days or pair it with a skirt and rolled up sleeves on warmer days.
White sneakers
Another wardrobe staple that you really can’t live without is a trusty pair of white sneakers. Whether it’s for the workweek or the weekend, any outfit can be elevated with a chic sneaker, like the Carnaby evo sneakers from Lacoste.
