Yay!! It’s the first day of Spring today, and since I’m in sunny Queensland for the next six weeks it actually feels like it too! I LOVE the start of Spring, not only does it mean that Summer is just around the corner, but it also means new fashions woot woot!
One of THE most popular trends for Spring is W H I T E – I LOVE wearing white, or shades of white (cream, ivory, off white…. mother-of-pearl…. whatever suits you) it’s fresh and fun and signals good bye to all that black we wear in Winter.
So knowing how much I LOVE white (and coffee in the mornings to get me going – NOT a morning person here at all!), the wonderful team from Nespresso have asked me to put together a Springtime White Mood Board to celebrate the Art of Coffee + MiIk.
Here are some of my fashion and beauty picks to get you excited about the Springtime White trend….
1. Sussan panama hat $29.95 | 2. Colette by Colette Hayman white beaded bib necklace $9.95 | 3. Seed Heritage jumpsuit $169.95 | 4. Witchery petal front skirt $129.95 | 5. Witchery cross-body bag $199.95 | 6. Decjuba PU+ponte jogger pants $129.95 | 7. Sacha Drake “Penny” tunic lace dress $329.00 | 8. M.A.C chromographic eye pencil in white $32 | 9. RMK white heels from Styletread.com.au $149.95
The Art of Milk + Coffee
You know, you see the George Clooney ads and they are all drinking these fancy little espressos, but what if, like me, you prefer your coffee WITH milk (in fact 75% of kiwi’s like their coffee with milk, with Aussies being very similar).
Nespresso has created 22 exclusive Grand Cru (coffee blends), each with its own specific taste and aromatic profile, and each of these will also take on a slightly different aroma and taste when added with milk. Meaning there are many taste combinations depending on the Grand Cru and milk combination you choose – while I normally drink a normal Latte, I might have to try something new…. there are some incredible looking recipes and combinations on the Nespresso website to try, click here.
Even better is that Nespresso are giving away the new Lattissima+ Limited Edition coffee machine and selected Nespresso accessories. Simply share your coffee and milk creations by uploading a photo to Instagram, Facebook or Twitter, tagging #NespressoCreations and @Nespresso by Sept 12th!
But back to the fashion… Do you love wearing white (or your shade of white) in Spring? How do you wear it? I’d love to hear, tell me in the comments below!
Until Next Time,
In Love & Style (& Coffee) Always

White is so beautiful, but I’m so clumsy that I can’t wear white clothing for more than 20 minutes without getting it dirty! I do have my eye on a pair of white loafers for spring though, so I think I’ll manage to work it in!
See loafers totally work!
The good think about white is that is actually easier to clean that colour! just a bit of bleach and you’re good to go again haha!
I’m just starting to embrace white, a colour that slightly overweight and clumsy mother of two young children usually avoids! I know have a smokin white blazer that I adore, and a couple of white tops. I love mixing different whites together.
I LOVE a good white blazer, Kylie! I’ve got an awesome one from Zara. The good thing about white is that napisan always works well and you don’t have to worry about stripping the colour 😉
I have a white leather jacket that I LOVE to wear in the warmer weather! It just makes any outfit I wear feel fresh and new! 🙂
oh I LOVE the idea of a white leather jacket! I almost bought one from Decjuba this year – sounds divine x
