When it comes to casual dressing around this time of year, adding a touch of luxury can really make an outfit look well put-together, rather than scruffy and bland. In this outfit, I've mixed together different fabrics and textures in a fresh, warm colour scheme (here's hoping Spring is nearly here!). I love the colour of this shirt dress from Topshop; I've paired it with relaxed-fit navy chinos, a skinny belt loose at the waist and a long, slouchy cardigan. Add a printed hijab (this one looks to be a perfect match), jewelled flats and a quilted bag for a casual, yet luxe outfit. Swap the cardigan for a blazer, flats for heels, and add jewellery for a smarter evening look:
White Stuff Heirloom knit cardigan £65, John Lewis;
Silk shirt dress £46, Topshop;
Relaxed-fit high-waist trousers £16.90; Mango;
Autumn Blues hijab £29.99, Aab;
Navy mixed keeper belt £5, Dorothy Perkins;
Pastel quilted lock across body bag £15, ASOS;
Dostie flats £35, Aldo.
