FOR MANY MONTHS NOW, THE HIS & HERS TEAM HAS BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING FOR SPRING TO ROLL AROUND AND DO ITS THING.

However, having realised that we’ll have to wait ’til 20th March to make the whole spring wardrobe thing ‘official’, we’ve decided to break with protocol and get stuck in to new season dressing early.

We’re blaming River Island entirely for tipping us over the edge into spring dressing after sending us this link to their entire collection of dresses (*speaking of which, to quote Bette Midler: “I want it all, and I’d like it delivered.”)

Having lost a chunk of our working day to the online equivalent of window shopping (and if that’s wrong, well frankly we don’t want to be right) we naturally felt the need to ‘expand upon our research’ by checking out the brand’s new season separates and menswear. Here’s just one of the lovely outfits we found. Just take our money and get out of our web browser and into our wardrobes already with your clean lines and waist whittling dimensions.

We’re also more than a little smitten with the fresh, stylish new menswear collection. If you’re looking for something that feels smart and modern and proves that neutrals don’t have to be boring, this outfit is our top pick.

If you’re also fast forwarding to spring, we’d love to hear about what you’re wearing and where you’re shopping. Please share all of your outfit-related news with us (seriously, we love that stuff!) Just comment below or keep us posted on Facebook or Twitter (see below).
