Layering for Summers
Layering is made for you Summers. It is the perfect way to build up your gorgeous smokey shades to create an effortlessly elegant tonal outfit. However, it can also be a great way of playing with your bolder shades - cherry, royal blue and primrose - without them taking over the entire outfit.
Don't forget to play with texture as well as colour to complete that Summer-does-cold-weather feel - add knitwear and more knitwear to a jersey base layers for a cosy feel that looks fantastic.
The easiest and least challenging way to layer is to stick to tonal shades. The lack of different colours means you just can't go wrong. Make sure you add a long layer to peek out the bottom.
Start with a Long Vest Top in Sky Blue and Ponte Trousers in Navy. Add a Tasha Top in Galaxy Blue and throw on an Alpaca Shawl in Greek Blue. Finish off with a Cashmere Gauze Stole in Navy
Getting bolder? Try adding some contrasting colours to your layers to add depth and interest to your look. This is a great way of adding a bright shade if you lack confidence doing large quantities of bright colours.
Start with a Silky Roll Neck in Mallard and Ponte Trousers in Galaxy Blue. Layer a Merino Crossover in Glacier.
The ultimate winter layering system - try adding more than one knitwear layer for style that keeps you cosy.
Start with a Cosy Merino Sweater in Glacier and your favourite jeans. Add a Merino Sleeveless Wrap in Bright Navy and top off with a Cashmere Gauze Stole in Beetroot.
Layering can be a great way to add some colour to your workwear too - the sleeveless mock turtle is the perfect lightweight base layer.
Wear a Sleeveless Mock Turtle in Raspberry and a Grace Pencil Skirt in Grey. Layer over a Cotton Jersey Shirt in Crushed Berry and then add your Grace Jacquard Blazer in Grey.
