Can we all agree this is the trickiest time of year when it comes to knowing what to wear? While the weather and our most recent wardrobe additions are telling us to stick with linen shirts, strappy dresses and toe-baring sandals, the shops are whispering 'hello autumn'. The year is flying past, and while we want to cling onto summer for as long as possible, we can’t help but be tempted by the thought of next season's offerings. One high street hero managing to bridge the gap between summer and autumn, though, is Mango.
The Spanish retailer is a forever-favourite on our high street, and we’re not the only mega fans. Sienna Miller practically caused a mass pilgrimage to the site after being spotted in a brown linen mini dress and clear sunnies at Glastonbury. And she’s in good company. Selena Gomez wore a peachy mini skirt suit earlier this year which single-handedly cemented our love for the co-ord. We don’t want to cause another stampede, but the skirt from said suit is currently in the sale (in all sizes) for £17.99.
Now, it’s time to tell you about the new collection that we’ve already received a ‘your order is on its way’ email for. 'Casual Rentrée' is a laid-back edit of pieces that will make you look like you’ve made a huge effort - with zero fuss involved. Starting at just £12.99 for a long-sleeved top, these refined staples will nudge your wardrobe towards autumn. And let us assure you, they're anything but basic. Think leopard and zebra prints, faux leather and accessories that’ll make you do a double-take at the price. Want to know how to style them during this in-betweeny time? Whether you do the chunky sweater with a mini skirt and bare legs look, or you opt to wear denim cut-offs with Western knee-highs, the edit comes with endless outfit inspiration. And the best news is that most pieces come in extended sizes (XXS-4XL).
