A white dress is an absolute must in every stylish woman’s spring wardrobe. Pair a smock dress/over-sized tee with a tailored blazer, and accessorise with lace-up sandals and a structured bag for a sophisticated look. Or alternatively, keep it casual by layering a denim jacket over a white t-shirt dress, and keep accessories to a minimum. The possibilities are endless, and that’s what I love most about fashion.
How will you style the spring staple this season?
Leather Jacket
A leather jacket is a timeless wardrobe must-have for all year round. They can easily be dressed up or down to suit your style, and match what you are wearing. Pairing a black leather jacket with a crisp white t-shirt dress creates a classic street style look that is ultra chic and stylish. Match with a pair of boots for a more grunge look, or opt for a pair of lace up sandals or mules for a more summery, smart-casual outfit. Add simple accessories, such as stacked necklaces, or a choker, to give more emphasis on the main element of this #OOTD: the leather jacket.

Blazer
Blazer’s are my favourite. They are my go-to look at the moment, along with long-line duster coats or kimono’s. Grey is the perfect pairing with a white dress, and creates a chic smart-casual outfit that can be worn from the street to the office. This spring, grey and white will, without a doubt, be one of my preferred colour pairings. With simple, muted hues, (such as grey and white) colour can easily be added through bold accessories, embellished shoes or a bright tote bag, like below.

Denim Jacket
Denim is so ‘in’ right now – everywhere I go there is denim galore. Embroidered pieces are popular this spring and are perfect for styling with a white dress. The embroidered detailing adds some personality and femininity to the look to create the perfect eye-catching street style ensemble. Pair with a simplistic blue crossbody bag, like this one below from Topshop, which complements the denim perfectly. Again, add with simple silver accessories for a casual, street style look.

Long-line Jacket
If you’ve been following my posts for a while, you’d know by now that I am obsessed with long-line jackets. Now that spring is in swing, there are so many lightweight, bold duster coats and kimono’s on sale and I’m trying so hard to resist the urge to buy them all! I am in love with this stripe number by Monki as stripes are so effortlessly chic and remind me of the Parisian style – something I am very inspired by. Add with monochromatic accessories, or bright and bold ones depending on how daring you’re feeling, for a super stylish #OOTD.
