3 outfits to try this Easter weekend

With Easter fast approaching, we’re blessed with not one, but two Bank Holidays! The long weekend is the perfect time to try out a new look.

It’s not quite T-shirt weather yet, but spring is definitely in the air. As the new season arrives, ditch the black, navy and grey outfits and experiment with your wardrobe – try a bold colour, unique patterns or different textures.

Whether you’re spending quality time with your loved ones or enjoying an indulgent chocolate egg (or five), we’ve got something for every event in your diary this weekend.

Easter egg hunt with the family

If you’re planning on running around hunting for eggs this weekend, show off your competitive side with ASTRID, our athleisure-inspired coat.

Red is still very much on-trend this season, and you’ll be hard to miss in this striking post box shade. The cocoon coat also features two sporty grosgrain stripes along the front edge and the back. Keep your outfit practical but stylish with box-fresh sneakers and relaxed mom jeans.

Sunday lunch with your S.O.

Check patterns are going to be huge this season – from plaid tailoring to tartan accessories, there’s no sign of the trend going away anytime soon. HOPE’s pastel-coloured rendition is perfect for spring, with a relaxed fit that looks cosy but not oversized.

Complete the outfit with a simple shift dress so you can eat to your heart’s content, or pair with clashing patterns to create a fashion-forward look that’s sure to turn heads.

Beer garden with your friends

Enjoy the sunshine (or more likely, the grey clouds) with CONNIE, our belted trench coat. This casual texture is contrasted with a dramatic A-line cut and asymmetric front fasteners.

You can wear this coat two ways: cinched in at the waist for a defined silhouette, or open and loose over your weekend ensemble. Even if the weather doesn’t match your mood, channel the summer vibes with white denim and sunny accessories.
