Trend Alert: The neutral midi




Not quite a maxi...not quite a mini. Introducing - the MIDI!

The midi is your perfect choice for summer. It oozes an effrotless vibe, worked back with sandals or ballet flats and a loose white T tucked in. 

We're dying for Piper Lane's version in this delicious nutmeg colour. The pastel hue goes with pretty much everything in our wardrobe right now. The cotton/rayon blend will keep you super cool through summer and is fully lined!

Seriously, slip on and go. Guaranteed to be on high rotation.

It's time to get shirty with this summer's hottest trend - the buttoned-up vest!

We're loving this boyish spin on shirting dominating the fashion scene at the mo. To give it a summer twist, try it with a vest and pair with cute brogues.

Or for a more feminine take, style with a floral print like this one from Piper Lane and wear it back over a tight slip.

Trans-seasonal must have!


We are mad for Seneca Rising's mae tunic. Especially during this weird mash-up of Autumn/Winter/Spring!

Made from the most buttery-soft rayon, this tunic is long enough to wear on its own when the sun is out or back with leggings when the clouds move in. We love it accessorised with a belt to cinch in the waist.

We can see this gracing the festival scene time and time again - just add cute brogues!

Summer is Splendid



Splendid tanks are our summer must-have!

The Splendid brand is built around comfort and ease - and these tanks are no exception. The specially formulated Supima cotton/modal mix tanks are a buttery-soft blend that absorbs dye easily, creating the amazing vibrant shades only this mix can provide.


These amazing tanks also come in a Supima cotton/spandex blend - which have a stretchier knit than their cotton/modal  mix sisters and fit like a second skin!


The vintage whisper racerback tanks are relaxed and laidback. Made of 100% Supima cotton, they are pigment dyed which leaves the fabric's colour slightly faded, giving it that vintage, lived-in look. Perfect for effortless style!


No wonder stylish celebs like Jessica Alba and Jennifer Aniston turn to Splendid for off-duty chic.
