Winter wear is leaving the stores’ racks and this is a great time to find good deals. Look for items worth investing in, such as timeless jackets and trends that will keep appearing in spring and summer.

Lingerie Effect
Usually relegated to the bedroom, underclothes inspired the winter collections and took prime space in many looks. The trend just gets stronger for the new season. Spaghetti strap tops in silk and lace are easy to wear for a sexy vibe. Tommy Hilfiger embraced the idea and paired it with another piece that will be seen during in the new collections: culottes. The short trousers, or long shorts, are another item to bet on!

Sparkle On!

Shiny beads and metallic fabric will remain the best choice for evening dress codes. A glitzy top or dress is a must-have item to keep in your wardrobe. This Mango top can be paired with your favourite jeans or with a pencil skirt for extra glamour. Just be careful not to overdo it; if you pick a shimmery dress, keep the accessories neutral or with a matte finish.

Reptile Trend
Snakeskin print is one of the hottest textures for the coming spring and summer. The cold-blooded creature is an inspiration to cool down when the mercury rises and snake print can be applied in all sorts of accessories and clothing items. Some brands painted their winter collections with reptile patterns, so look for it while shopping. Jimmy Choo is one of them, enjoy!

Jean Jacket
A denim jacket is always a versatile piece, consequently a smart purchase. Its fabric is also a good choice for the transitional period when the chilly breeze is still blowing on the island. This casual item can be worn with floral dresses, skinny leather trousers and even with a jumpsuit. The American Eagle Outfitters option is a warmer version of the traditional piece.

Fine Fringes

Hanging threads have been trending for a few seasons now and it seems that spring and summer will continue the trend. Lanvin has a collection of necklaces and earrings embracing this look, which can be worn with sophisticated or casual outfits. Handbags and trimming hems are very popular choices. Hunt for flowing tassels when shopping the island’s deals.

White Off
This bleached colour is a sophisticated pick when painting suits, shirts and dresses. A white gown is not just for walking down the aisle, though it should actually be avoided at weddings if you are not the bride! Victoria Beckham showed off structured pieces in her autumn and winter collection that are a great pick for enjoying the hotter days in style.
