& Other Stories’s spring drop is finally here, and French-fashion lovers will be happy to hear that it comes with a generous dose of Parisian appeal. I’m talking classic Breton stripes, tweed co-ords and throw-on trench coats juxtaposed with more contemporary takes on Gallic-girl style (pops of bright tangerine, double denim and chunky loafers, to name a few). Combined, these pieces are a thoroughly tempting proposition for those of us who enjoy a wardrobe basic with a trend-led twist.
So what’s at the top of my wish list this season? My personal highlight has to be the flared jeans on offer. With a flattering high-waisted fit and chic patch pockets, they’re the sort of thing that will look incredible with a white tee and biker jacket. But they’re also easily elevated with a silken blouse and platform heels. I also have my eye on the orange oversized shirt, which isn’t a shade I would usually go for, but when paired with a more neutral shade of beige, it feels rather chic. As it’s my job to guide you through the ever-changing world of seasonal shopping, I’ve taken it upon myself to hand-pick my favourite pieces from the latest collection and style them up into four easy, spring-ready outfits. Whether you’re looking for a more polished event ensemble (head on down to the skirt suit) or craving an easy weekend-brunch look (double denim is the one for you), I’ve got you covered. Ready?

A cropped Breton tee with a pair of high-waisted flare jeans makes for an ideal outfit. Just finish the look with heeled boots and a vintage-inspired suede jacket.
Channel your inner Blair Waldorf with a cute tweed co-ord. I recommend adding a little Alexa Chung–inspired charm with a pair of white socks and chain loafers.
I am a big fan of & Other Stories’s two-tone denim skirt, which lends itself perfectly to a bit of double-denim styling. The brand’s Peter Pan Collar Shirt will do the job nicely.
This is probably my favourite look of the edit. A colour-pop shirt is a great way to add interest to a trench coat and jeans and also offers a nod to one of this season’s key trends. Ideal.
