The bottom half is back

As the outside world beckons, it’s time get fully dressed again.

Whether you’ve been a lover of loungewear this past year or have made (minimal) effort for Zoom, one thing’s certain: your bottom half has been neglected. But with a few key pieces – be it sophistication in leather or playfulness in print – your outfits can be easily uplifted.

01

Good sport

The days of suits and blazers are quickly fading, and a new paradigm is emerging: one where the boundaries between work, home and leisure are blurred. Tap into this shift with an athleisure look. Whether dashing between meetings or catching up with friends, the likes of track trousers and trainers are as practical as they are stylish.

We love: these maroon trousers by Lacoste and classic white trainers from __Tory Burch. __

Ode to colour

Socialising after a year away presents an opportunity to reinvent yourself. So if neutrals have always been your go-to, why not make your return a cause for celebration with plenty of colour? Whether you choose pastel hues or a set of clashing primary shades, it’ll make your arrival all the more fun.

We love: this floaty skirt by Paul Smith and energising Claudie Pierlot trainers.

Back to basics

Great style needn’t be synonymous with a ‘more is more’ approach. Often, simplicity works just as well, so opt for a pared-back look to make a discerning return to the office. Be sure to choose well-tailored pieces and keep to classic shades such as black, white and navy.
