All of these things signify the approach of warmer weather, and as nature starts to transform and shed its wintery guise, it’s time for us to do the same. We’re all packing away the winter coats and slowly starting to ditch the jumpers and scarfs, and along with them, those trusty fleece lined leggings and 80 denier tights that have kept you cosy through the winter months are probably also being pushed to the back of the drawers.
