AS LOCKDOWN restrictions begin to ease (woohoo!), it’s finally time to say goodbye to sweatpants and get excited about fashion again. That doesn’t mean you have to pour yourself into a skin-tight dress and shove your toes into a pair of high heels, however.
The first phase of socialising is still going to involve lots of outdoor activities, whether it’s al fresco dining, barbecues in the garden or picnics in the park – and for that you’ll need something a bit more practical.
The answer to your spring style conundrum? Dungarees. After months of avoiding denim like, well, coronavirus, the hardwearing fabric is back – and an all-in-one is all you need for spring.
So here’s our pick of the dopest dungarees of the season…
