Since when did supermarket clothing become cool?!

We were pleasantly surprised this afternoon when George's current seasons trend landed in our inbox! Since when did supermarket clothing look this good?

We are all for quality, good ethics, investing in items that will last and spending money wisely, but when supermarkets produce great designs and market their products in a way that competes with higher quality brands of course we want to take a look. 

But before your spend, consider your options carefully:

So, because the price points are competitive, low and convenient rather than splurge on more items than your wardrobe space allows before you spend your well earned cash, treat the item as you would if it cost 5 times as much: Justify the purchase, consider how you'll wear it, what it will work with in your existing wardrobe and make sure you really are getting your moneys worth. Look at the care label, consider the texture and quality of the item so you know that you are still buying clothes you love and getting your money's worth. 

You don't always need to buy the whole outfit (unless your having a complete wardrobe detox!) and don't be tempted with 'less cost = more items'! Consider saving the pennies and spending pounds on higher quality where it's needed. 

In the meantime, just a little peek at that lovely Spring blue jacket isn't going to hurt...

How To Wear A Blazer

As the clocks jump forward and we officially leap into Spring, it is important to consider the type of outerwear you will be sporting this season. Now, we are assuming that you have all remembered to loose the hour on Sunday and are blissfully enjoying the lighter evenings - if not turn your clock forward NOW!!! Moving swiftly on let's discuss the all important blazer.

A blazer is a smart option that can replace your trusty coat this Spring through until Summer and even the early signs of Autumn - a big deal (we know).  It is important to choose the correct style that can be worn with a variety of outfits. The transitional jacket is effortlessly formal giving a smart edge, which can be worn with comfort and ease. Add to a dress, jeans, skirt or trousers for any occasion as the high street offers various colours, prints and cuts that suit different body shapes and styles.
