Uterque, Scarf holder belt, £50

The humble silk scarf can transform an outfit. The most interesting way to wear has to be around your waist but that doesn't come without faff. Say hello then to Uterque's super chic leather belt, complete with loops through which to weave your scarf. Choose silky styles bursting with colour and print to pair over a white shirt dress. That's your office re-entry look nailed...

Stripes are my print of choice, on everything. Arket's modern mariniere edit, featuring this jersey polo shirt, has my name all over it. I'll be pairing it with a trench, straight leg jeans and black boots to form the ultimate weekend outfit. Roll on March 8.

JAM, Happy Games Cap, £55

Baseball caps had quite a moment on the SS21 catwalks and they're truly a gift from the style gods. With rainy spring weather and months without a hair appointment, I'll be wearing mine with everything from an oversized blazer to a classic coat.

Tablescaping Queen Mrs Alice's Easter edit has me excited about throwing events again. Scalloped baby blue placemats, rattan bow napkin holders and ruffle tablecloths are the joyful table additions needed to make the most mundane of meals a true moment of joy.
