New In: The best pieces to add to your shopping basket right now

With the cold weather taking over, it’s prime time to treat ourselves. Ella Porter takes us through the best new in pieces to buy online right now


Now that January is out of the way, I feel like we all deserve a new look as we make our way into the spring months. 

Someone needs to remind Mother Nature of this because I do not appreciate the freezing temperatures we are being subjected to. While we battle on through the bitter cold and dark days, there’s no reason why your wardrobe should have to suffer – which is why we have picked out the best pieces from the online high street to boost the mood. 

The best part about online shopping is you don’t have to leave your house. You can stay under a warm blanket on the couch while simultaneously watching Netflix and entering your card details on the ASOS website.  Our favourite online retailers have everything we need for February weather from trench coats to leather trousers but also possesses everything we want for spring in the form of magical midi-dresses and comfy cotton jeans. 

Boost

The gorgeous vintage-inspired top with puff sleeves in pink floral print from ASOS is sure to brighten your day. Pair it with the Monki Mozik wide-leg jeans for an outfit which screams spring. Wear with ankle boots and a teddy coat now to fight the freeze. Leather trousers are the ‘it’ piece of the moment and the Goosecraft leather trousers will work with almost everything in your clothing arsenal. The Zara checked overshirt is the ideal ‘throw on and go’ piece for any wardrobe, while Arket is making our oversize blazer dreams come true with the best outerwear offering online at the moment.

And finally, it’s all about the accessories. Nothing will brighten your day more than good jewellery. So boost your confidence and your outfit with a really great pair of earrings like the COS sterling pearl pair River Island’s
