Spring and Summer collections are in full swing in the US, and some items are on flash sale. My clients are in the mood to shop, and it’s a pleasure to refresh their wardrobes with them. Those sunnier Seattle Spring days are energizing at this time of year.
1. Everlane Items
These items from Everlane have been winners on my clients this season, or have good reviews online. Generally for Everlane clothing, size down a size. The Boxy Oxford in the grey pinstripe was GORGEOUS on my client with silver hair. She rocked it with the Mariner Jean, wearing volume over volume with panache and ease. Hip, on-trend, and comfortable. If you want to try barrel pants that are more subtle in volume, try the Utility Barrel Pants. They stretch out a bit which you might like or dislike. The Italian Leather Day Glove Flat has been fab for those who can can wear flats with limited arch support. Buttery soft. The City Stripe Midi Dress is made of beautiful fabric, and has a unique front and back V-neck. The City Stripe V-Neck Top has a darling shallow V-neck, and can easily be hemmed if it’s too long. The Easy Workwear Dress will look great over pants if it’s too short. And the Raglan Sleeve Poplin Dress works well on a larger bust and broader shoulder line. Wear it with or without the waist tie, and by all means wear the waist tie at the back. Browse all the colour options of these items.
2. J. Crew Cotton-Blend Rollneck Sweater
If you’re after casual, boxy and fluid cropped cotton-rich knitwear with a high neckline that’s super comfy, try the Cotton-Blend Rollneck Sweater. It’s a pass for short necks because the roll neck is HIGH, and does not fold down. You might need to size down too. It’s fab for items that look great with shorter tops like wide pants and jeans, and flared skirts. This type of knitwear is a slam dunk for me in our chilly Pacific North West Springs that can last for months. I have the pink and white.
