How to Wear a Summer Dress to Work
If you work in an office environment, the dress code your employer has in place for you to follow could be one of several different types. Office dress codes vary widely, from smart, modest clothing suitable for a corporate setting to a more relaxed dress code that gives you more freedom to wear the outfits you love.

Introducing! Yumi’s second recycled collection…
Introducing! Yumi’s second recycled collection… Minute by minute, the days are getting longer. As snowdrops fight their way through cold, tough ground, the advent of Spring brings hope. So, with our second exclusive recycled collection, we want to show the world that here at Yumi, we are feeling positive – despite *gestures wildly* – everything going on right now. Most importantly, we want to spread that positivity in the way we know best – with a bright, bold new collection – by celebrating prints that put smiles on our faces and by using fabrics which help the planet, too. Inspo: Our latest offering is a celebration of cheer in its most carefree form. An ode to that relaxed, joyful feeling of weightlessness that comes from being present in a joyous moment. In part, the collection is inspired by our beloved Regent’s Park – spotting giraffes on a nervy first date; ferociously licking ice cream as it melts in the sun. A conscience led approach: Like our first recycled collection, drop two is made exclusively from recycled polyester. While polyester is an…

Top 10 Pieces For February
February, as the shortest month of the year, can often be overlooked when it comes to updating your wardrobe. But, with Valentine’s Day fast approaching and Fashion Week not far behind, there’s plenty of reasons to awaken your springtime wardrobe. By February, we’re usually ready to shred those layers we gained over the winter. Long gone are the days are thick knitwear, oversized scarves and heavy knit dresses. Although they served us well, it’s time to pave the way to brighter horizons. This month look to tea dresses, pastel tones, and animal print to make the transition into the early spring months. And whilst we’d love to start the season with a fresh new look, we can’t turn a…

The 5 Outfits You Can Dress Up Or Down
Cancelled plans and unworn outfits have left us feeling a little out of touch with our wardrobes this year. With no dress code and the safety of elasticated waistbands for three months, it’s no wonder we’re reluctant to return to our pre-lockdown selves. But as time draws on and the lipstick we once overused for our Zoom calls starts to fade, it’s time to re-establish the new normal – for our wardrobes at least. It may be a while ‘til we’re dancing at weddings and sipping sickly cocktails at birthday parties, but while the world wakes up from its slumber, it’s time to get your outfits back on track. And…

Yumi Style Edit: What We’re Wearing In June
Parting with your winter wardrobe usually feels like a blissful celebration. However, given our celebrations are more low-key than ever this year (and confined by a limited guest list), you’d be forgiven for feeling a little underwhelmed by the arrival of June. Not to mention the hesitant risk you take when buying an outfit that may never see past the front door, let alone a suitcase. But since we’re happily breaking up with the joggers-and-t-shirt motif we sordidly overused in stricter times, there’s an empty space in our wardrobe for more season-appropriate items. With plenty of new palettes and patterns you may have missed during the sluggish first stretch of…

Extra Special Mother’s Day Gifts
It’s just over a week until Mother’s Day. You’ve made sure you’ve found the right card (funny and in no way crude) and have planned the day to a tee, but wait – what do you buy her? While we know that our mums would like anything and everything we buy them – proven by the questionable childhood drawings – we can’t quite face the idea of gifting them something they just don’t like. They deserve better. So, in honour of all our special mothers, we’ve compiled a list of five presents that our they’ll love and treasure forever. After all, nothing says thoughtful like a well-planned gift. It’s really…
