Today I am wearing oversized white shirt with straight jeans turned up to show ankles (yay), dead ringer for Gucci loafers and a camel coat. Definitley my look for chill in the air Spring.

I do think the full on boho can look a bit like fancy dress if you are not careful. I think I'm happy to go with pared down and accents of boho, e.g. fringy boots, wrap bracelets or beads.<br /><br />The asos white stuff looks lovely, especially the stripy dress outfit and the geometric trousers. Sadly, we haven't got a Cos near us and I agree that the website looks rather confusing. I think I definitely wear a fair amount of nautucal/stripes and blue denim/chambray in spring and summer.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14990047543978625527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-16085776695360886592016-04-20T00:46:24.081-07:002016-04-20T00:46:24.081-07:00That's exactly how I feel about ASOS too! Usua...That's exactly how I feel about ASOS too! Usually I stick to a few brands in there (Weekday, Whistles) and only look at specific ASOS-branded items if recommended. But after reading about ASOS White, I took a look and really like their offerings - seems higher quality and well-curated. I too was tempted by the off-shoulder geometric top and the grey sweatshirt dress with cut-outs!! <br /><br />Btw you ROCK Me+Em!! Every time you wear their things, it makes me want to go back and order more! Unfortunately the side-stripe crop trousers from them didn't work for me (material too stiff) but I still want their joggers! Is the side-stripe pair you are wearing made of lighter (crepe?) material?? Or maybe I should forego the stripe and just go for their slouchy joggers (is that in jersey)??Ediehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02879980301005798277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-77787218284162709452016-04-20T00:44:58.656-07:002016-04-20T00:44:58.656-07:00Cos is quite boxy in shape, but the quality is gre...Cos is quite boxy in shape, but the quality is great. It's important to know what shapes suit you and what don't. I've not yet bought on line as I can visit a store fairly easily. I'm still wearing a cashmere sweater I bought in Paris a decade ago. Love their sweaters in a mix of materials like merino wool and silk.<br />Not tried their trousers, but as I always have trouble getting them short, I stick to brands I know (Scandinavians don't do petite!)<br />COS = Scandi minimalism at it's best!<br />Danish Pastry Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-47409747663076906902016-04-20T00:27:40.518-07:002016-04-20T00:27:40.518-07:00To me, it looks very similar to Cos.

I think a lot of people are put off Cos, especially if online is the only option, as their styling is a bit avant garde, and in store a lot looks very sacklike on the hanger, but a lot of it looks really great on, and the detailing is fantastic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534534978347181935.post-63161756361753419772016-04-19T22:32:28.260-07:002016-04-19T22:32:28.260-07:00I fell in love with the white, square V-neck top -...I fell in love with the white, square V-neck top - only a size 14 left.
