Our 20% off discount on all adult clothing ends tomorrow at 9am, so there’s no better time to pick up those spring trend essentials! Check out our top wardrobe picks below:

70’s Sophistication

F&F Limited Edition Bow Front Ruffle Detail Blouse F&F Satin Trousers

F&F Limited Edition Bow Front Ruffle Detail Blouse – £25, F&F Satin Trousers – £16

This is a great way to wear the upcoming seventies revival. The blouse couldn’t be more on trend, with a bow front, sheer material and ruffle sleeves; whilst the wide leg completes the seventies silhouette. Wear the shirt tucked in with a skinny belt, to show off the high waist.

The Day Dress

F&F Limited Edition Button Front Panel Dress

F&F Limited Edition Button Front Panel Dress – £25

This understated dress is classic and timeless, and the smart print means that it is ideal for both work and play.

The Skinny Flare

F&F Skinny Flare Jeans

F&F Skinny Flare Jeans – £16

Set to be the jean of the season, the skinny flare combines the figure boosting shape of the skinny jean with the statement-making flare. Wear it with a tucked in bow neck blouse or this loose cable stitch jumper, for a great casual day look.

The Little Black Dress

F&F Limited Edition Zip Front Dress

F&F Limited Edition Zip Front Dress – £22

Even though we saw lace gain significant popularity in the later seasons of last year, it’s certainly not had its day. However, it is now important to wear lace wisely, and the lace panelling on this dress give it a playful edge, whilst the full skirt takes inspiration from 60’s Mad Men era.

The Clog Revival

F&F Suede Mule Clogs

F&F Suede Mule Clogs – £20

Clogs are also set to make it big this season, popping up on the runways of Chanel and Louis Vuitton. The iconic studding and wooden soles are ideal complements to the wide leg resurgence, and completes the new seventies look.

Remember our 20% discount is only available until tomorrow at 9am, and is applied at the checkout so all you need to worry about is stocking up on those wardrobe essentials!
