HERE COMES

It seems like it’s been years rather than months since we last saw the sun and, while lockdown has been to thank for some of our vitamin D deficiency, the time has almost come for our annual top-up – and with it, a social calendar dominated by elegant garden parties, croquet and far too much champagne. Still, after so long indoors many of us are in dire need of a warm weather wardrobe update. What might have passed muster on a Zoom call simply won’t do mixing with polite society; the shame would be unbearable. So, dust off your linen blazer, don a pair of striped trousers and slip on some loafers – it’s time to make the most of British summertime.
