Unlike summer elsewhere, in the UK the weather isn’t wall-to-wall sunshine and as much as we’d love to just be wearing vest tops, shorts and summer dresses, layers are often much-needed on a breezy day. It’s easy to reach for your favourite denim jacket or blazer, but sometimes we want something a little more elegant - and lightweight.
This is when I choose the shirts from my summer capsule wardrobe and although plain linen and cotton ones are my go-tos, Joanna Lumley is inspiring me to go for something a little more glamorous. The Absolutely Fabulous icon attended Wimbledon several times in July and I feel like her green and white outfit on Day 14 went under the radar.
