Thinking about white stuff at this time of year can still evoke images of snow (- apparently more likely to fall now than at Christmas). But when signs of Spring pop up, white in fashion terms can mean a fresh new start – the hope of dry warm days ahead, and how a crisp white dress can be the switch from your Winter to the Spring end of your wardrobe.
Choosing white over colour needn’t be seen as lacking in flair – done well it can work brilliantly as a classic look, gleaming heavenly in the Spring sunlight.
We’ve had a look at what white(ish) cool clothes are out there at the moment and have chosen these numbers which we think would freshen up anyone’s Spring wardrobe.
Abigail Lorick Dress in warm ivory £65
From the latest edition to hit our high streets: H&M’s brand new premium high street brand: & Other Stories - Made from crisp starchy cotton poplin, this sleeveless dress has a pleated grosgrain section on the front and a pleated waist with an inverted V pleat on the front. Other details include darts at the back of the neck and waist, a hidden zip down the back and hidden side seam pockets.

With momentary whiffs of spring in the air, putting on a pretty floral number can be more of a statement of “I’m officially now over this drab winter” than (foolishly) leaving your coat at home. And when you do, it’s difficult not to wear a smile when you’re dressed up in floral – whether it’s a busy repeat flower print – Cath Kidston style, or the more abstract digital flower prints springing up on the highstreet. Whichever type of bloom suits you best, nothing can make you feel more feminine than a floral print.
If wearing it isn’t your thing, there’s always accessories which can considerably freshen things up. So, if you’re feeling optimistic of Spring being sprung or feel the need to encourage the blossom along – here’s some floral beauties currently out there for the picking.
Ditsy Origami Floral Skirt £40
If you have the legs for this beautiful tailored origami skirt - it would be a crime not to wear it. In a ditsy floral print, made from 65% Polyester,35% Cotton.

A classic T-shirt is such an important thing to have in your wardrobe – and thanks to the likes of Jil Sander, a simple T-shirt is a serious fashion staple at the moment. There’s no better way to declare your love for something loud and proud than wearing it on a T-shirt, and as you know, we’re crazy about fashion. Luckily, style is something that T-shirt store MoreTVicar.com caters to well, with a huge selection of tees ranging from vintage designs to silly cartoon prints.
We’re completely crazy and head-over-heels for their fashion-inspired tees. Love the 90s? Why not tell the world with a cool black-and-white printed tee of Christy Turlington smoking a cigarette, or harp back to the 80s with a classic Madonna print. As icons go we’re totally obsessed their Kate Moss T-shirts and vests, which feature some of her best black and white beauty shots. It’s the best way to pay tribute to Mossy.
Or if wearing a supermodel on your chest isn’t your bag then maybe you’d like to show your appreciation for one of their cool musical icon tees instead with a John Lennon portrait tee or an Elvis one, to channel a classic rock and roll look. All you need is T-shades and a biker jacket and you’re good to go.
Check out our favourite MoreTVicar pieces by clicking through the gallery above.

Nishe Jewel Pussybow Blouse
We love this opulent jewel-printed blouse - so on trend! Wear with a maxi skirt and some huge earrings for a dramatic look. Find it Asos.
One of the absolute staples that you will definitely need this autumn is one of my favourites: the blouse. Pussybow, sheer, printed or oversized – they’re absolutely key for your Autumn/Winter wardrobe. Pick the right one and it’ll see you the whole way through to the next year.
Marc Jacobs, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Jonathan Saunders all included feminine, old-fashioned blouses that walked the line between austere and sexy in their collections. We were especially big fans of Jonathan Saunders’ jewel-coloured silk high-necked blouses, which, teamed with a skinny pencil skirt and heels, were glorious. If you want to kill two trends with one stone then opt for one in an unusual, quirky print, as pattern and shape are the two absolute key words for this season.
Our favourites? Personally, I’m a big fan of American Apparel’s illustration-print blouses and Topshop’s quirky 60s pastel-pink blouse with a peter pan collar (you know how I’m a sucker for anything disgustingly retro). Check out the gallery for our favourite blouses from the high street.

Retro t-shirts have been around for a good few years now, and we can’t see the trend dying out in the near future.
This may be because we like to have certain things that remind us of our childhood (I have a Rainbow Brite one that does exactly that) or because of the sheer number of celebs who opt for these when they want a casual look.
Hot off the retro t-shirt press is this fun and kooky Monster Munch tee by Famous Forever featuring the iconic Monster Munch bunch. And yes, I’ll definitely be getting one of these, afterall no childhood was complete without the pickled onion flavour.
Buy it now from Truffle Shuffle.
If Sesame Street was more your thing then check out our gallery for t-shirts and sweatshirts here.

Models including Lily Donaldson and Lily Cole have put their faces to a new breast cancer awareness campaign “Fashion Targets Summer Fridays (FTBC)”. The initiative encourages us all to buy the Ralph Lauren-designed FTBC polo shirts, and wear them to work on Fridays. They retail for $55 each and are available from Net-a-porter. Proceeds from the T-shirts will go towards Susan G. Komen for the Cure and other FTBC-supported organizations. So, what are you waiting for? Grab yourself a Ralph Lauren polo and help the cause.

Have you checked out the The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion exhibition at the Met yet? Although you have until August 9 to visit the supermodels at the museum, Marc Jacobs is giving you one more reason to do so. He has created a specially-designed T-shirt to celebrate the exhibition. Available in red and purple, they retail for $35 each. The good news is that if you can’t make it to the Met then you can order your size online – woot!

If you’re a T-shirt kinda gal, no doubt you’ve already heard of Threadless Tees. Sure, we love their silly slogans, but plenty of brands do those. We’re more into their cute, kitchy designs like the Capistrano Spring Break, left, $15, and the “Infamous Mishaps Through History,” right, now on sale for $9. (You really need to enlarge the graphic to fully appreciate that one.)
Keep reading to learn how to win a $25 gift certificate to Threadless from ShinyStyle.

This Colette cardigan, $59.95 down from $118, is just perfect for someone with a vintage sensibility. It would accentuate some curves nicely. The It Prada lace has nothing on this Magic Words Blouse, $49.95 down from $98. And while there are several great spring dresses on sale, my favorite is this Iskaldur dress, $149.95 down from $298. I love the color and the print, which is a really understated take on floral. Even on sale it’s not the cheapest pick, but it is 100% silk with a silk lining as well.
