READ MORE: Boden’s smocked midi dress that makes you ‘feel a million dollars’ has been slashed by £40
Spring has sprung and with it comes the chance to grab some fabulous fashion finds in the seasonal sales. Retailers from M&S to Next are slashing prices, but it’s Boden that’s really caught our eye.
After the boho revival we had at the end of the last year and suede taking over our high streets, it’s no surprise that Boden’s Iris Snaffle Clogs is what grabbed our attention. As soon as we spotted them on the site, we couldn’t believe how much they look like Gucci’s no longer stocked suede clogs, and the best part is that they are currently reduced by a huge £75.
Originally £115, they are now under £50 at £40.25.
A comfortable pair of trousers is essential for the spring/summer seasons, and M&S customers have discovered a versatile gem that can shift seamlessly from casual to chic – all without the hassle of ironing.
Retailing at £29.50, the Plisse Wide Leg Cropped Trousers are available in two adaptable shades: classic black and a soft buttermilk. They boast a comfy elasticated waistband and added stretch in the material for more give, ensuring extra comfort.
Their wide leg cut offers a breezy sensation, making them spot-on for warmer days or trips overseas, and the plissé finish adds a touch of sophistication.
Phlur’s latest fragrance release is called Rose Whip. With notes of rose and black currant and base notes of amber, cashmere, wood and musk, this is a grown-up take on the traditional floral scent.
Sexy and woody, this fragrance is perfect for date night. I’m usually not a huge fan of rose-scented perfumes but Phlur’s new one has completely converted me.
Wedding and occasionwear season is just starting to kick off, and one of our favourite brands has just launched its new ‘Dress-Up’ edit, filled with party-ready pieces. Damson Madder’s limited collection features buttery yellow hues, bold stripes and matching handbags that we can’t get enough of.
Our favourites include: the Simone Slip Midi Dress, £125, the matching Simone Satin Scrunchie Bag, £55, the Sita Multiway Midi Dress, £150, and the Butter Yellow Bea Cami, £65.
With a whole week of warm(er) weather on its way, now is the perfect chance to start upgrading your spring/summer wardrobe with a few new-in pieces. And Next customers are raving about a pair of breezy linen trousers that are perfect for the summer heat and ‘feel lovely on’.
The Tie Waist Wide Leg Linen Blend Trousers, starting at £30, come in four different colours and patterns.
Crafted from a linen-blend fabric that’s both light and airy, these trousers feature an elasticated waistband with a tie fastening for ultimate comfort. Their wide leg cut offers a contemporary edge, while side and rear pockets provide a practical touch.
These versatile joggers can be paired with simple t-shirts or vests for a laid-back vibe suitable for repeat wear during the warmer days, or they can be smartened up with a floaty blouse or crisp shirt.
