Love That. The Show You Shop

Give preppy style a modern twist this season. Blend timeless classics with relaxed, off-duty pieces for a look that feels effortlessly wearable every day.

Mel’s top pick? Retro trainers in a neutral colourway, finished with two different lace options for a playful twist. At just £60, they’re an easy entry into the trend and pair perfectly with what’s already in your wardrobe: tailored trousers and a crisp shirt for a polished look, or straight-leg jeans and a rugby top for something more laid-back.

A co-ordinated trio is the ultimate shortcut to effortless style – think a faux-leather jacket, matching short-sleeve shirt, and a modern mini in a unique basket-style weave, all designed to work seamlessly together. As Mel puts it, “this is the kind of thing you see coming down the Milan catwalk,” but it’s been made wearable for everyday.

Each piece can be styled solo or worn as a set, giving you endless outfit options without overthinking it – exactly what a capsule wardrobe is all about. The full look comes in at under £130, offering a considered way to invest in pieces you’ll wear again and again.
