We’ve colluded with the uber-stylish guys at I Love 2 Love, a hot new leather jackets and accessories website, for their tips on making the tricky transition to Spring.…in high style.

Love your leather

This season’s all about the juxtaposition of hard and soft, feminine and boyish…pull off this look with aplomb with a flirty little dress peeking out from beneath a lived-in look biker jacket. IL2L has some women’s leather jackets this season. Womens Leather Asymmetric Biker Jacket - £90.

Scarves say it all

Scarves, the stylista’s staple, really come into their own at this time of year. Opt for sumptuous, soft fabrics to contrast against your leather jacket. Think about a versatile style, which will work just as well with your outfit once you’ve taken your jacket off too. The V Fraas scarf is bang-on-trend - £18.50.

Oversize bags let you layer up…

If you can’t bear to cover up your lovely new outfit, tote a huge bag, which will hold a light-weight warmer, like a cashmere cardie. We love this Kipling Suzu Large Vintage Leather Handbag - £145.
