First sight of sunshine, and I’m ready to make a mad dash back to my mum’s house in Norfolk to dig out my spring/summer clothes (because we all know London rentals don’t allow for such storage). So as I prepare to open the vacuum bags to discover my own wardrobe once again, I’m on the lookout for a few new pieces to make them feel fresh. Pairing old with new is an easy way to lift any look, and on my latest hunt for epic spring buys, I landed at & Other Stories.
When it comes to shopping the high street, for me, the brands under the H&M umbrella never disappoint. Arket already has strappy sandals I can’t resist, H&M is delivering all the best midi dresses, and Weekday is about to make me try out the baggy-jeans trend. When it comes to statement pieces, though, & Other Stories is always my go-to. Sure, it also has pieces like that (now-iconic) classic wool blazer, but this season, I’m heading to the high-street hero for uplifting shades, punchy prints and attention to detailing that can often otherwise be tricky to find for the price point. These 31 items have sell-out written all over them, so be quick.
