These uplifting designs are influenced by oriental styles, the plain English and the tropical, and might even take you all the way into summertime…
The metallic luxe range of lingerie from Beautiful Bottoms starred in Vogue and Glamour in December, but it’s the 100% silk Oriental Bird Drop Back Playsuit (£41) that I’ve got my eye on. Wear it in the boudoir or on the beach if you’re planning an Easter getaway…
The home of all things pretty, Oliver Bonas stocks the best of unique bird and butterfly print. Amongst numerous scarves, tea dresses, blouses and wallets is a highly desirable, quirky jewellery collection. The Flying Swallows Silver Necklace (£27) is a dainty, must-have real silver pendant. It’s worth checking out the Aglaya Owl Necklace (£19) if you would prefer a golden coloured piece.
We haven’t covered much on the January sales here at the Wardrobe Update, and I know this item is slightly above budget for us lowly students, but I couldn’t help but feature it. With an exotic print and a body con fit, the dropped reverse hem on this Just Cavalli Tropical Bird Print Dress (£195) gives it the edge. The vivid pattern will make a statement at winter parties and you can wear it bare-legged when warmer evenings arrive.
