{In Partnership with Sezane}
What to wear for this inbetween season? We’ve had a few warm days lately but to be honest, it’s not much to get excited about. Mine and the kids wardrobes are still straddling that spring/summer/chilly interim where I can’t put away all the knitwear, still need light jackets and definitely can’t rely on bare legs everyday yet. No jacket weather will always be my favorutie but until then? A great denim piece will stand you well, the ‘Will’ jacket from Sezane is one of their best sellers for a reason – it’s the perfect structured jacket for those spring days, looks great worn over the shoulders and works with trousers/dresses/skirts.
‘Will’ jacket: Sezane. ‘Farrow’ bag: Sezane. ‘Sandy’ skirt: Sezane. ‘Lenny’ low mules: Sezane.
Just team with a logo tee (this one is from last year but it’s a classic style they do often – see below for this season’s update!) and an essential I’ve been eyeing up for a long time – a leopard print midi. I find leopard print very hard to get right in this type of bias cut skirt, but of course Sezane have perfected it.
I love that Sezane focus on great, quality (B Corp) staples rather than a quick turnaround of products. They have iconic pieces that you instantly recognise as Sezane and sell year after year (such as the Will jacket or the Max shirt), but at the same time don’t reproduce on a huge scale so chances are you won’t see everyone in the same piece. It’s not easy to do and one I hugely admire. Speaking of classics, the ‘Leontine’ jumper is one I swear by, they’ve been making it for a few years – 100% organic cotton and just sits effortlessly. It’s also one of those items I will have in my wardrobe year round as it’s light enough for the summer months too. I’ll be wearing with some boxer style elasticated waist shorts once it warms up.
The ‘Farrow’ bag is a great style which fits so much in, handmade by women in Madagascar, you can even have it monogrammed for no extra cost. There’s a huge trend on TikTok at the moment on how ‘styling’ can really make a plain outfit sing and I would say the same for details, the embroidery on this bag brings it up another notch, plus also adds an exra element of colour you could bring out to match with earrings, shoes etc.
And I don’t even need to persuade you on a broderie top, do I? This looser shape is so flattering, too. The flowers I’m carrying here were actually a birthday gift from my friend Sarah at Douceur whom I met for coffee before shooting this and whom also LOVES a floaty blouse/broderie anglaise – so this is a bit of a homage to Sarah.
