Now that the evenings are lighter and spring is in the air, our attention turns to our wardrobe and how to dress for the seasons ahead.
Spring/Summer fashion is a riot of colour this year, with brights and fabulous florals leading the way in the stores at St Nics. If you’re not a fan of bold though, channel your inner All Saints 90s girl and jump on the cool cargo trend. And if you want to keep it smart and sophisticated then the tailored look is for you.
