Charlotte Jacklin’s guide to spring dressing

“I live by the sea so transitional dressing is something I’m fast becoming a pro at, as the weather is very unpredictable.”

“The best thing about spring arriving is the introduction of more pattern into my wardrobe. Sunnier days call for brighter colours and this floral print oversized shirt is perfect. I’ve layered mine over a polka dot swimsuit, which is hands down the most flattering cossie I’ve ever owned. I’m ever the optimist so you’ll often find me using a swimming costume to layer things up, ready for a dip whenever the sun shines.”

“This floral jumpsuit is my favourite wardrobe staple: it can be dressed up or down and is so easy to put on in the morning. I can easily do all my daily errands in it… but my favourite thing about it? It has pockets! Thank you Tu.”

“I’m a big lover of stripes and this nautical-inspired coral striped shirt won’t be off my back this season. It’s so easy to layer, too.”

“Denim is my go-to wardrobe staple at this time of the year because it goes with almost anything and keeps the wind at bay. I love these girlfriend fit jeans – they’re high on the waist, not too slim on the leg and they have lots of stretch too, making them super-comfortable.”

“I always carry a cardigan or jumper with me in spring because although the days are longer, the temperature can drop early in the evening without warning. A denim jacket is a surefire way to avoid being caught out in the cold.”
