There are cult buys and then there’s Gucci’s Love Parade collection. Inspired by the glitz and charm of old Hollywood, the resulting pieces deliver slick styling with a side of vintage glamour. And Gillian Brett, NET-A-PORTER head of fashion content, has her eye on the label’s checked long-line blazer… “There’s nothing quite like a blazer to make you feel instantly ‘pulled together’, and this checked linen-blend style by Gucci is perfect for adding a little polish to your look on balmy days. Pair it with wide-leg linen pants and a tank top for work meetings, or over a white T-shirt and jeans on off-duty days – opt for slightly flared denim to offset the jacket’s ’70s vibe.”

When half the office is OOO and your mood is mostly-dreaming-of-the-beach, look to pieces that channel sunshine. LA-based brand Frame is an expert at delivering styles that slot seamlessly into your at-home closet and look effortless on vacation. Its bold yellow tunic dress is a perfect pick; just add Loewe’s retro-inspired orange sunglasses when you touch down for a look that radiates with sunshine shades. Leslie Amon’s swimwear strikes a vintage note, too – a bold neon one-piece provides a statement summer silhouette and revives all the best things about ’80s style.

Warmer days are the perfect time to up the ante on your jewelry. Marlo Laz excels at vibrant, playful pieces that sparkle in the sun, and David Yurman’s elegant designs fuse timeless with contemporary. For footwear, opt for something open-toed (it’s the perfect excuse to treat yourself to a pedicure) – see Aeyde’s ’70s-inspired clog-mule hybrid for day, swapping to Giuseppe Zanotti’s jeweled sandals come evening. And The Row might just have made the perfect shoulder bag – cut in the softest suede to the kind of sleek, minimal silhouette the brand is famed for, you’ll carry it forever.
