As an editor at Who What Wear, I typically spend a lot of time looking at new-in products, so I thought it would be handy to have this space where I’m able share with you the very best pieces I come across and the shopping picks I’m personally adding to my wish list.
This month, I’ve transitioned fully into spring mode. The days following the clocks going forward are always some of my favourite in the year. Nothing beats that hopeful feeling of finishing work while it’s still light, and I can’t help but get excited for all the fun of warm summer days to come. We are, however, still in that transitional time when the weather can be a little temperamental, and my current wish list reflects that. Some pieces, like the denim and shirting will work right now, and some, like the dress and sandals, are me optimistically forward-planning.
The current new-in sections seem to be as excited for warmer days as I am—with colourful, breezy drops full of linen, swimwear and sandals. And while I totally agree that it’s wise to think ahead when it comes to our wardrobes, I’m not *quite* there yet. So, for now you’ll find pieces on my wish list that still feel like a breath of fresh air (the gorgeous spring green of Raey’s blazer, for example), but that you don’t have to wait patiently around for our first heatwave to wear.
While there’s plenty out there catching my eye, I don’t plan on being frivolous and I’ve been thinking long and hard about what the most useful and versatile spring pieces are that my wardrobe is missing. So, whether you’re looking to buy, browse for inspiration or discover something new, keep scrolling to see the nine smart items on my spring wish list this year that I believe are really worth investing in, and read on to discover how I plan on styling them for now and throughout the year.
