English weather! Whilst we can be relied upon to help you find the perfect outfit, the weather is not so reliable! So when choosing an outfit, how can we know what the weather will do? A matching wrap, or chiffon jacket to cover your shoulders, either to prevent sunburn or keep the chill off, is always a good idea. Many of our outfits come with matching jackets or longer length coats plus we have a range jackets and coats for sale on their own.

Why choose preloved? The obvious answer is the environmental impact of which we are all too painfully aware. But the upside is an opportunity to have high-end outfit at a reasonable cost which may otherwise be out of reach. It also means we have stock from previous seasons, giving wide range of different styles other than the latest ‘in thing’. All our clothes are cleaned, steamed and closely checked over to ensure they are as good as new, so your outfit may not actually be new, but will be new to you.

Necklines are so important, which has become increasingly evident the more ladies I see. Like everything else, the neckline of an outfit can either flatter or highlight a feature we may not want attention drawn to. So what suits you best? Why not come and try on some outfits and see what flatters you the most?

So what’s the difference between a hat, a hatinator and a fascinator? I don’t think hats need a description, but a hatinator is a shallow crowned hat fixed to a hairband, so it elegantly sits on the head without spoiling your hairdo! For those looking for something a little less out there, fascinators are a headband decorated with feathers, bows etc. So what’s your style? Come and take a look at our Wivenhoe studio and, if you’re matching to an outfit you already have, don’t forget to bring your outfit with you.
