The fashion briefing

Look of the week If you knew you would find a jumper this ­fantastic - and then look this fantastic in it - you too would be persuaded to trawl through ­vintage shops, wouldn’t you? Good work, ­Natalie Joos, who runs her own casting agency and clearly has the style gene. For ­further ­evidence, see how she’s made her ­pin-tuck skirt look sort of ­overwhelmed - in a good way - by the jumper. Or how easily she pulls off that pair of (brilliantly) weird Pradas. With all the talk about whether you should clutch your bag or wear it 'cross-body', her hang-nonchalantly-at-my-side ­ approach is quite the revelation.

In silver. You could improvise with tin foil and Pritt stick – or make your own ­Lagerfeld statement with this T-shirt. Wear with ­sunglasses and a pout. £65, houseoffraser.co.uk Photograph: Linda Nylind Photograph: guardian.co.uk A wardrobe staple The fashion desk likes a spot of sensible clothing, a category that this Jaeger skirt fits nicely. With its on-trend, slight A-line shape, this cotton/linen knee-length piece is ideal for a spot of spring daytime cavorting. Plus it is ageless, timeless and effortless - it should slot breezily into your existing wardrobe. £150, jaeger.co.uk Photograph: Linda Nylind Photograph: guardian.co.uk Splurge This Sonia by Sonia Rykiel tote is not going to win any awards for subtlety. But then if you’re bored of posh ­pastel minimalism - the look du jour - ­perhaps this is the ideal fashion two fingers. A lightweight fabric, it can be worn in loads of ­different ways, and will jazz up any proceedings. £150, mywardrobe.com Photograph: Linda Nylind Photograph: guardian.co.uk Stripes of the week If you’re not a Lagerfeld kind of guy - see Join the Karl club - then maybe you’re a Warhol? This mariniere top from Petit Bateau, slung on with a leather jacket and Perspex glasses, could recreate the pop artist’s look in a flash. £48, 020-7462 5770 Photograph: Linda Nylind Photograph: guardian.co.uk
