Bracewell - easy wardrobe essentials for Spring.



Having been in the industry for over 2 decades, Michael Bracewell knows a thing or two about women's fashion, delivering season after season delicious wardrobe essentials and simple basics, with loyal customers returning again and again for his classic style aesthetic.

His Spring 2009 collection doesn't disappoint, in fact, he get's it oh so right this season, with a fresh, perhaps dare I say, slightly younger take on the easy, relaxed, layering pieces he is renowned for. This sublime collection of essentials work back with multiple items in your wardrobe. And look equally fabulous on their own, for that matter!

Above are two of my favourites - the Memphis Fringe Dress in Grey, also available in black - equally gorgeous and a little dressier. I see this dress as an essential weekender - you'll find yourself wearing it constantly as it's so easy and comfortable. Pair it back with some summer sandals or flats (try some connies like the model), grab your sunnies and weekend bag (have you seen Kim Regan's handbags, below) and you're pretty much good to go. Just add a little cardi or vest (try the Draped Vest in cream, below) if there's still a chill in the air. And for those of you who don't like short dresses, wear it back with leggings or jeans (just scrunch it up a bit round the waist, looks great as a singlet too!).

Also on my hitlist is the Prairie Vest, with it's luxe take on woodstock hippie (very hot this season). Wear it back with shorts and a little Tee for summer - the vest adds instant glam to this simple combo. Or if you want to rock the look a little more, wear it back with dark jeans and a sexy little black top/singlet with some heavy metal accessories. It's all about adding your own style!

There are more gorgeous pieces from this collection available now at Ciao Meow - be sure to check them out, your wardrobe will thank you for it!

Ciao for now,
