Time to think Spring Fashions with Country Road


Is spring in the air? This time of you is always tough, sartorially.

Do I wear boots, scarf and coat or do I wear a dress with bare legs? I tackle all the big issues here!

The method to my particular madness is to wear the boots and plan (dream!) of spring.
Whilst Spring may not be evident outside, it is evident in the shops. So I will eek a few more wears out of the winter lovelies while I can and strategise for when it actually does warm up outside.

Country Road is always a favourite. I sometimes struggle with the hemlines, I sometimes struggle with the colour palette ( fluoro anyone? anyone?) but I always come back for the classics. It's what they do brilliantly. Classic items that stand the test of time.

 Black cigarette pants, crisp T shirts, tailored jackets. Nothing groundbreaking but you can't have an entire wardrobe of "look at me!" pieces or you risk looking like a dog's breakfast! Can't have that!

The new season's pieces have a strong monochrome look with just splashes of muted colour to break up the black and white. Lovely, luscious, sophisticated.

Here's how I would wear it:




one   two   three   four   five   six   seven

Either the T Shirt or the ruffle top would look fabulous with the simple look of the pants. The biker jacket would be perfect for this time of year and I love the look of black and navy together.

To this I would add some beautiful jewellery in the form of a chunky metallic watch and a mix of bracelets.

How are you planning to "wear" spring? Are you even thinking of Spring yet  or are you enjoying the last days of cooler weather?
