Expertly knitted from silk jersey, this sunshine-yellow sweater combines comfort and elegance. I love the vibrant hue and the luxurious soft fabric, it’s the perfect top for your spring wardrobe. Pair it with your favourite tailored trousers and don’t forget to add some heels for a classy ensemble.

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN – Draped Tulle-print Jersey Midi Skirt

Crafted from smooth jersey with a high-rise waist, this stunning skirt reminds me of ballet tutus. Artfully gathered and draped to create a dynamic silhouette, it is truly flattering. I really like the black and white tulle print which gives the skirt an exceptional je ne sais quoi. Style it with a figure embracing top and low profile accessories for an elegant, yet simple look.

SAINT LAURENT – Bianca Knotted Leather and Wood Platform Sandals

These iconic sandals definitely need no introduction. Featuring an adjustable ankle strap and a stylish block heel, they come with a crisscrossed front tied in a knot.

Here’s another ultra-charming bag from Dolce & Gabbana.

Carry it by the top handle or wear it on your shoulder to add a pastel note to your spring outfit.
