"Ever since I saw Toteme’s tobacco suede shirt in their store back in 2023, I’ve been waiting for a more purse-friendly version to hit the market—and this might just be it. I’ve gone one size up to make it more versatile for layering with light knits and denim shirts."
"I’ve been alternating between the same two pairs of gold hoops for the past year, so these brioche-style earrings instantly caught my eye—they’ll help elevate an otherwise simple outfit."
"A short-sleeved knit is a surprisingly versatile wardrobe piece—it can be layered under shirts and ‘indoor jackets’ or worn on its own if the temperature rises unexpectedly. I also love this paired with leather trousers."
"Jeans are the pillar of my wardrobe, and this striped pair has really caught my attention—a little outside my comfort zone, but the navy monochrome tones feel quite wearable. They would look incredible with a brown suede jacket, which is next on my list..."
"Time to stop playing it safe with bags and inject some colour with this lemon-toned bucket style. When the rest of your wardrobe is quite pared-back, a colourful bag can really lift an outfit—and this one comes in at under £500."
"I might just be ready to move on from the Sambas, and this New Balance pair boasts the flat, slim style that I know works well with my wardrobe—plus, the hint of brown keeps them on trend too."
"I find double-breasted blazers quite hard to wear, but this sculpted version offers a modern twist on the classic style and pairs effortlessly with loose-fit denim, leather trousers, and khaki chinos."
"I was a huge fan of Americanah when it came out 10 years ago, so I’ve been eagerly anticipating Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s latest release, Dream Count, which follows the lives of four Nigerian women in London and explores their loves, longings, and desires."
"This isn’t just any blue shirt. I met the founder, Dilly, when she launched her brand last year, and she was wearing this beautiful piece with a subtle sheen that makes it effortlessly elegant. It’s the kind of shirt that elevates your everyday look while still feeling polished for the evening."
"Suede deck shoes are everywhere right now, and the rubber sole makes them especially comfortable for days on the go. This fresh style is a great way to update your favourite jeans and khaki trousers."
