The Handbook Fashion Team’s New Season Fashion Picks
With Fashion Month coming to an end and spring on the horizon, The Handbook’s fashion team share their new season fashion picks keeping them up at night. We have all bases covered, from cute hair accessories that will transform a look to the surprisingly affordable suede tote that fits our Editor’s laptop in. As well as high street heroes to shop on payday and a limited edition cocktail dress our Fashion Editor will be wearing for decades to come…

1. Designer/Mid-Range Pick: Sandy Striped Cotton Blouse – £85 – Damson Madder at Harvey Nichols
While Damson Madder is on the more affordable side of mid-range, this butter yellow blouse looks designer.
2. High Street Pick: Split Suede Cage Sandals – £59.99 – Zara
These suede slides look way more expensive than they actually are, and will team with everything from denim cut-offs to longer wide-leg trousers.
3. Accessories Pick: Suede Leather Tote Bag – £117.97 – Etsy
I actually just bought this bag in dark brown, so it’s technically already ticked off my wish list, but I am obsessed with it for spring. It’s great quality, super soft and even fits my laptop.

1. Accessories Pick: Chunky Medium Entwine Hoop Earrings – £129 – Missoma X Lucy Williams
I’ve been wearing a lot more jewellery recently and I love to mix metals. Missoma’s chunky hoops are perfect with inky denim and classic white tees.

2. High Street Pick: Harbour Hearts Blouse – £62 – Sister Jane
I am always drawn to sailor-esque shapes and classic maritime detailing and this sweet blouse from Sister Jane ticks all those boxes. I’ll style it with barrel-leg jeans and ballet flats for a more modern feel.
3. Designer / Mid-Range Pick: Cape-Style Silk Dress – £300 – Mango
I know Mango is high street but I’ve totally fallen in love with their limited-edition high-neck silk dress. There is something so timeless and elegant about a silk tie-neck detail and I know I’d wear this for decades to come. I would style over jeans for a cooler vibe.

1. High Street Pick: Bubble Hem Mini Workout Dress – £65 – Abercrombie & Fitch
If you haven’t noticed, Abercrombie is absolutely killing it with their activewear right now. Sleek, flattering, and just the right amount of sporty… if it doesn’t get me to the gym, at least I’ll look good running errands.
2. Accessories Pick: Scrunchie in Butter Business Stripe – £25 – Damson Madder
A scrunchie is both a cute hair fix and an underrated outfit upgrade. I love keeping one on my wrist as a makeshift bracelet – it adds a pop of colour and frill. Currently collecting all the shades and this butter-yellow one is the perfect spring/summer addition.
3. Designer Pick: 530 SL Cinnamon – £850 – New Balance X Miu Miu
These have been on my wish list for a while, and for good reason – effortlessly chic and leaning into the sporty trend that is everywhere right now.
