My personal essential for this time of year is any type of shacket. Not quite a shirt, but not quite a jacket, the humble shacket gives you just a bit more warmth than a shirt, but not as hefty as a jacket. Perfect for those days when you leave the house first thing freezing cold and end the day a sweaty mess. A variation and yet another stylish favourite is the combination of oversized denim jacket and hoody. Take your favourite, comfy hoody and stick any colour denim jacket over-the-top, and you’ve got the perfect cover up for sunny days that have a chill in the air (maybe just remember your umbrella for those pesky April showers).

Now that the weather is looking up, maybe it’s time to put the jeans away and swap them for a lighter option. In a similar style to the on-trend baggy mom jeans, there are plenty of cotton and linen variants to stay cool in, just as the sun is coming out again. Dress them down with a hoody or shacket (yes I’m a little obsessed) or dress them up in co-ord style with a matching blazer jacket. You’ve probably already got a pair in the cupboard – I’ve seen plenty of you donning these on freezing nights at Bigg Market!
And as always, a trusty pair of high top Converse can sort you out in all weather types. With a vast range of colours, pair them with trousers, flowery dresses, or joggers for a cosy fit. The possibilities are endless…
