If you have some silk staples, now is the time to dig them out of the wardrobe and style them for summer…
The Silk Cami
For an effortless upgrade to any outfit, the silk camisole is the go-to choice this Spring/Summer. Pair yours with a maxi skirt or some loose flared trousers for a chic look. The simplicity of a silk camisole means you can layer yours up and add a light overshirt to cover your arms if you’re prone to feeling a chill.
The Silk Shirt
Where do we begin with the silk shirt?! A simple silk shirt can be worn with any outfit, open and unbuttoned as an overshirt. White or lighter colours work beautifully in the sun. For a day into night look, try tying your shirt to create a more dressy look, pairing it with a skirt and sandals for the ultimate summer evening outfit.
The Silk Blouse
The perfect Friday workwear ‘fit! A silk blouse is in every office worker’s wardrobe. Paired with simple jeans, smart trousers or even a skirt, you’ve got the ultimate summer office outfit. We recommend saving this outfit for a Friday ready for those after work drinks that are bound to happen when the sun is shining – that way, you can look fantastic in the office and even better when you arrive at the cocktail bar!
The Silk Midi Skirt
Silk midi skirts have taken the fashion world by storm of late and have not gone out of style since. Their versatility is incredible, and if you’re struggling styling yours, we’ve got you covered. The beauty of a silk midi skirt is that it can be paired with anything on the top and still look cute. Choose a light sweater if you feel the cold, or a vest top for those extra hot days. Pair with a pair of chunky trainers for an effortlessly edgy look, or some sandals for some classic summer apparel.
