Fenn Wright Manson | Tweed For Spring & Discount Code!

Finally, finally we're starting to creep a little closer towards Spring.  I can't even begin to explain how much I'm looking forward to the masses of colourful blooms appearing left, right and centre.  The brighter, sunnier (and pretty, pretty please warmer!) days. And of course, not forgetting the seasonal wardrobe changeover that comes with kissing goodbye to freezing cold temperatures and dressing in more layers than a Russian nesting doll.  But before we dive into ruffled mini dresses and cropped t-shirts, it's time to look at transitional styling.  The bridge between Winter and Spring in particular has become one of my favourite times on the calendar with regard to styling.  This is largely thanks to the options - you can mix and match to your heart's content!  With this in mind, I'm adoring casual skirt suits right now.  Although my rules are fairly relaxed, one thing is essential: it either has to be covered in a striking check print (look coming soon), or tweed.  Ooh.  Fenn Wright Manson have added the first Clueless-esque skirt suit to my Spring wardrobe and now I'm hooked.  I mean,  Cher Horowitz raised the bar pretty high, but I'm cool with living in her shadow...

This full look is from the Petite range at Fenn Wright Manson.  The new collection is filled with beautiful, contemporary pastel shades and flattering fits.  If you happen to be tall and of a slim build, don't despair - I'm actually over 5'9'', and yet the petite range fits like a dream!  There's a also a gorgeous Jacket in the Natalie tweed blend range, found in their main collection.

Tweed is a material I'm sure many of us have only ever associated with the colder months of the year, but believe me when I say it can do so much more.  There's everything to love about the tweed blend of this Fenn Wright Manson Natalie Coat; the lightweight design ideal for Spring, the fray trim to the collar, front and hemline, and don't even get me started on the colour.  I've been planning ways to wear it throughout this next season and the list just doesn't seem to end.  Tweed has a fabulous ability to be dressed both up and down.  It works just as well worn as a wedding guest, as it does paired with cropped denim and sandals for a lunch meeting.  For example, this past week, I went shopping wearing the Natalie Skirt  paired with a chunky knit pink jumper.  Next week?  I have a meeting that calls for the coat alone to be layered over a turtleneck black ribbed dress.  And we're only in February!  Lightweight tweed blends are a match made in heaven for Spring styling.  Personally, when the time comes, I'll be reaching for some of the following pairings:

I'm totally smitten with this dreamy look from Fenn Wright Manson.  The lightweight tweed-blend has set my mind on Spring, along with the fresh blue and pale pink colour combination!  Ugh, I'm just so in love with anything that has those Clueless vibes (hello Alicia Silverstone) - here's looking at you matching skirt suits!  So, will you be wearing tweed at all this Spring?  Have you ever shopped at Fenn Wright Manson before?  Let me know in the comments below, as always I can't wait to read your thoughts!
