In Focus | Polos and Pinstripes
When contemplating a winter wardrobe, typically our mind transports us to snowy cabin scenes, sitting fireside with a cup of cocoa and wearing a chunky knitted jumper. It’s too easy to jump the gun at this stage and to overlook the stylish simplicities available to us in these shoulder season months. Now is the ideal time to introduce layering to your style before the deep winter sets in. Fortunately, we firmly believe in trans-seasonal knitwear you can start building your outfits with. We are excited to introduce our newest Freya and Pippa jumpers for the change of season; that will remain in your wardrobe rotation until the daffodils bloom and the sunshine kicks back in.
Both jumpers sit nicely into our favourite 'quiet luxury' aesthetic, designed to be worn not just for the season but generations to come. Think scandi style, defined by comfort and wearability. When you ponder "Scandi style" you can’t help but think of comfy trainers and timeless basics, layered effortlessly and with the occasional bold colour or two. We’ve had eyes on Felicia Akerstrom the Stockholm based influencer, blending fitted styles with the oversized layers; think flared casual jeans and, our pin-striped penny shirt and our sleeveless Freya polo.
These Scandi-style influencers seem to be leading the way for the capsule wardrobes that we all dream of; simple statement outfits that emulate both effortlessness and timelessness. They keep it low key, but often brave some bolder tones. The Penny Pinstripe shirt is our go to for this look with an air of simplicity, wear it loose and open or layered with one of our cashmere vests.
Although it's the opulence and style we hope to recreate within our own wardrobes having stalked these influencers, it’s the lifestyle that we really desire; laid back coffees, crisp winter mornings and occasional log cabins. You know what they say... dress for the job you want, not the one you are in! Start with a wardrobe refresh and lean on the advice of influencer and author of Dress Scandinavian, Pernille Teisbaek, “Invest wisely in timeless pieces”. Look no further...
