HOW TO WEAR : SPRING SHADES

This golden hour get-up is a solid spring option if your cold weather jam is shades of grays or greens. Keeping the tonal layers vibe that’s been a streetwear go-to ever since our lord Kanye West first threw a khaki bomber jacket over an olive-drab sweatshirt, it’s a combo of comfy-cool staples that instead evokes the evening sun on warm sandy beaches.

Throw a mustard shacket over dusty-yellow Stussy hoodie (because, while the days may be brighter, it’s gonna be layers weather for a few weeks yet) and add some canary yellow adidas joggers for a let-pretend-its-summer lift down below. Finish with fiery red kicks and heritage check cap. 

Liberated from desk duty, the traditional striped office shirt has become an unlikely street-style and catwalk star for SS18. The likes of Balenciaga and Martine Rose have elevated the SFW staple with boxy silhouettes and deconstructed styles, encouraging the stylish set to reclaim the humble button up as key component of on-trend dadcore or preppy get-up. Our version brings some '80s ice cream flavor with mix-and-match stripes in pale yellow, pink and blue.

Stone jeans with on-trend side-stripe in yellow continue the icy fresh theme, as do light gray kicks on foot, while a long sleeve white tee layered underneath is an optional extra to turn this seaside-suitable summer steez into something more transitional.

If you aren’t ready to step too far away from your winter monochrome uniform, blues and browns are a useful way to introduce a bit of warmth to your wardrobe. Tap into the casual '70s color-scheme with a knitted shirt in navy, blue and brown stripes and had a burgundy baseball cap to dial up the mercury slightly while keeping the tones nicely muted.

Down below, indigo skater jeans are an SS18 essential and tie in the tones up top. Finally, dip your toe in more traditional spring shades with some a pair of pastel pink Converse All-Stars — they’ll nicely offset the low-key colors up top while staying firmly on the timeless, retro tip.
