“I'm eyeing up this clutch for its perfect blend of summery raffia and pretty embellishments. This will be perfect for elevating my event and wedding outfits all season with a touch of sparkle.”
Petro | Co-founder
“I have one little black summer dress that I have worn to death and I am looking to upgrade. I love this iteration, it's the perfect length and style for summer events with a heeled thong sandal or you can even dress it down for a beach vacation with flat sandals and raffia accessories.”
Laura | Co-Founder
“I always prefer wearing a chic co-ord over a dress because it makes me feel more modern. This monochrome set would be the perfect look for a summer event.”
Charlotte | Social Media Director
“We’ve been talking about red heels for a while now in the office and I haven’t stopped thinking about these! I think they would instantly update some pieces I already have in my wardrobe, meaning I don’t have to buy a whole new outfit.”
Lily | Fashion Newsletter Editor
“I love the structured nature of this one-shoulder linen dress. I'm excited to wear it to summer evening events with a strappy kitten heel, whilst also for daytime beach lunches with some elegant flats. Because of its minimalist nature, I know it won’t age in my wardrobe and will be a timeless classic.”
Alexandra | Senior Newsletter Editor
"When the occasion calls for it, I love a little themed dressing. These earrings are chic enough to be worn at any time but would be perfect as part of a wedding guest outfit."
Phoebe | Social Media Assistant
“Royal Ascot is a fun time to play with feminine shapes and bright colours. With such a tricky dress code to master, this ticks all the boxes, and I could re-wear it as a wedding guest in future.”
Polly | Fashion Director
“These black kitten heels are so chic, whether it’s for a party, paired with your jeans and a nice top, or a black tie event. These, for me, are the perfect shoes: elegant, elevated, and with a heel that I can stand in all night.”
Elizabeth | Editorial Assistant
“I love the versatility of this co-ord and think it can be easily dressed up for my upcoming events later this summer. I’ll be swiping on a red lip and adding some strappy heeled sandals for my new go-to evening look.”
Emma | Head of Partnerships
“I’ve just bought this brown silk dress for an upcoming wedding in Ireland and I know it will be super versatile. I’ll be wearing it in the city with trainers and a blazer, as well as on holiday with barely-there flats and a chic basket bag.”
