My ‘Mum Uniform’ Wishlist – Next Spring 2017 | Style on Saturday

As a teenager, it was a standing joke in our house that when the new season Next Catalogue was delivered, my mum would try and hide it, as she knew I would have my nose in it straight away. These days, it is no different, except maybe it is easier as the entire collection is available online – back in my teenage days they used to send a CD Rom with the catalogue – showing my age a bit there. Since becoming a mum, my style has become rather predictable, a lot of navy, stripes, denim and tan accessories –…

Autumn Wishlist for Izzie
