Morning ladies & happy Wednesday.  It's time for this month's post featuring my 'must have' picks from  Baukjen's latest drop & as always there's lots of timeless temptations that have a nod to the latest trends for the upcoming months.  

So let's jump straight in & start with a top that features two of my main temptations - stripes & off the shoulder.  Seriously what's not to love.  Style with a pair of faded jeans, such as these & a pair of  trainers.  Or dress up with a midi skirt like this one.

Of course now we're heading into Spring I'm all about less layers & easy styling.  One such way being throwing on a dress & dressing it up or down depending on the occasion.  My eyes were immediately drawn to the above monochrome dress that is perfect for many an occasion.  Style with a denim jacket, such as this one & trainers for everyday.  Pair with a fitted blazer & ballet pumps for the office & come the warmer weather accessorise with a straw basket & wedge espadrille sandals.

More stripes next with this timeless monochrome tee.  I just love how it's been styled with these cropped slim fit leather trousers.  But equally love the idea of pairing with white denim, such as these or even dressed down with a pair of denim cut off shorts or even a maxi skirt depending on the occasion.

As I've already mentioned dresses are perfect for days when you don't know what to wear or simply don't have time to think about it, especially this black tencel dress which is so easy to accessorise & dress up or down.  Team with a whole host of jackets, from a leather biker such as this one, a white denim jacket like this or even a cotton one, such as the one below.

Cotton jackets make the ideal extra layer in Spring & are great for dress down days.  Pair with denim or even leather leggings like these, or cropped wide leg jeans such as these.  You could even change the look up a little by adding a belt, such as this one & teaming with cigarette pants like these for a more tailored look.

Of course a well functioning wardrobe needs great basics that can be mixed & matched & layered according to the weather.  So a timeless vest top like the one above is perfect & would look great teamed with the above jacket & cropped wide leg jeans.  Plus it's also available in black here.

Another wardrobe basic has to be the sweatshirt, perfect for adding a little comfort to your look on dull cooler days but equally ideal for dressing down a maxi skirt & pairing with trainers.

Equally the above off the shoulder sweatshirt would make the most stylish loungewear when teamed with these joggers.

My final dress to feature in this month's top picks is this gorgeous stripe number.  Such a fresh & effortless style that's perfect for pairing with neutral tan sandals, a straw shopper & Panama but it would equally look great worn with a denim jacket, trainers & some red accessories.

For my final pick I'm sticking with those wardrobe foundations.  I just love this timeless tee.  The perfect fit for pairing with cigarette pants for the office or wearing under a blazer with jeans & trainers, not to mention styled with some statement jewellery.

So what have I chosen this month to style & feature?  Well as always it was a difficult decision but in the end I picked the following three items.

my midlife fashion, baukjen samara organic sweatshirt

Firstly their Samara Organic Sweatshirt, which I just know is going to prove one of those all year round wardrobe heroes.  I mean who doesn't love stripes & monochrome when teamed in the softest of sweatshirts?

I also chose their Brenna Top, as I needed a classic vest tee for wearing under my leather jacket, blazers & shackets.  Also it's going to be perfect worn with denim shorts & maxi skirts come the warmer weather.  As this is a fitted design, & I prefer things to be a little looser around my middle if wearing on their own I sized up to a UK10.

As you can see the sweatshirt has a slight 'relaxed' fit, so for this I went with my normal size 8.

my midlife fashion, baukjen Daniella Dress

My final pick was the Daniella Dress & again I'm wearing my normal size 8.  I have to say this has to be one of the most flattering wrap dresses I have ever worn.  The fabric has the right amount of stretch & weight & I just love the puff sleeve detailing.  I have no doubt that this is going to be getting a great deal of wear over the coming months & think it will look great teamed with some red sandals once the temperatures heat up.
