Spring 2016 fashion done 4 ways

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][text_output]Each year we get majorly excited at Quattro Rish when the Spring collections start arriving, the thought of fresh designs and colours after a season of heavy knits and rain is hugely appealing.   With a team of four working together at QR it is really interesting to see how differently we buy and style, each of us choosing very different pieces from the collections.

Today’s post is about four women, each of whom have very different life styles.  We thought it would be fun to share with you in this post our differing styles through the Spring 2016 collections…[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3577″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]Ivy | Quattro Rish brain behind the business & buyer

Ivy and her husband Roberto founded Quattro Rish nearly 9 years ago.  With twins aged 5 Ivy is forever on the run, either merchandising, serving, styling customers, paying bills or the school run! She loves big jumpers, funky pants, trainers and has a bit of an addiction to the white shirt (MiH a favourite).  Ivy’s style can be described as masculine with a feminine twist – imagine a casual wardrobe with silk shirts, jumpsuits with the occasional pair of feminine shoes.

[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]” I love this outfit as I know I will be wearing all these things to death.  The Current Elliott industrial pants are just so comfortable and I love the kick bottoms with the higher waist.  I feel effortlessly cool in them and can wear them either with trainers and a jumper / tee, but I can also dress them up with my favourite MiH white Ile shirt, pointy pumps and clutch.

The Custommade jumper feels great on and the colour is perfect for spring.  I will style with my blue / white ripped jeans, or over a maxi silk dress.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3576″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3578″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]”The Rose Rankin trainers are an amazing find, I am wearing these everyday at the moment!  They tick all the boxes for me – comfortable, different with a pop of colour.

In the summer this outfit would look amazing with one of our slide sandals from Sol Sana or Ivylee.”[/text_output][text_output]

[/text_output][text_output]Living in the countryside Ali loves mixing up her wardrobe.  The epitome of casual luxe, Ali feels just at home wearing joggers with wellies, as she does in a blouse styled with skinny jeans and wedges.

“The cardigan is pure luxe, I love the combo of grey and cream, it never dates and always looks chic. I can wear it now under my coat and in the spring as a coat.  The trainers are just a bit of fun as I never wear prints so I wanted to jazz up some of my simpler outfits.  I would love to wear them in the evening with a silk shirt or casual dress.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3583″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3579”][text_output]

“The MiH denim dress is a real wow., I have fallen in love with it and had to have it.  I will be wearing it now with my suede tan mid length boots or with slides on sandals in the summer.”

Sam has two grown daughters in their twenties and has reached that enviable stage in life where she can travel the world, dine out and enjoy life with husband.  Jeans are very important to Sam, along with a blouse and heels.[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]Always effortlessly chic, Sam explains her spring pieces: –

“I picked this outfit because I absolutely love the American Vintage Shirt. I normally go for blouses with a scoop neck as the collar does not suit my style, however this feels so silky and soft, and it drapes so perfectly, that it looks great on.  I’ll also be wearing it later on in the season with one of my favourite style jeans, the flip flop flares in white from Current Elliott.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3585″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3586″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2”][text_output]I am also wearing the grey stiletto jean from Current Elliott with a released hem, the fit is great and they are a bit different distressed.  The Unreal Fur gilet is the perfect spring throw on; I can wear this from day into the evening looking glamourous with minimal effort.

The tan chain bag from Liebeskind is a great addition to my outfit choice, giving it an on trend seventies vibe.[/text_output][text_output]

[/text_output][text_output]Helen has a daughter and son in their twenties, loves to cook, enjoys a spot of gardening yet at the same time travels to exotic places and has a fabulous social life!

Helen adores clothes but chooses carefully what to buy. She likes a classic style with a twist, but on occasions falls in love with an extraordinary mad piece  and just has to have it.[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]” I love this outfit because even though it’s casual it is also sophisticated, the pants are easy to wear, comfortable and I can wear them with heels, flats or trainers.  I like the combo of navy and black which is so French and absolutely adore these Ivylee shoes – they have a built in little wedge so give a little height. They would look great with a dress or skirt as they make your legs look longer with the open front.

The Coster Copenhagen Jumper is a useful black top but with a difference – holes – and is so easy to wear!  I am obsessed with the silk zodiac blouse by MiH, it is a classic and my spring investment piece.  I also love the Pernille Coyrdon jewellery – simple, cool and stylish, this necklace looks great with so many things.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3589″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3590″][text_output]All items are available from our Spring 16 collections in store and to mail order.
