IMAGE Spring is out now! Find out what’s inside…

By the time you are reading this, the days should be getting just that loveliest bit longer, the sun should be shining (at least a little more) and the first blooms in view. It might be a cliché but as nature wakes up, undoubtedly so do we. In fact, just like woodland creatures, it feels like we are all slightly emerging from long months of hibernation, stretching out our limbs and perking up to feel fully alive and new-season ready for whatever lies ahead. A change in season always makes me itch for newness.

I want to refresh my wardrobe, declutter my home, plan holidays and change-up my hair. If spring signals the season of fresh starts and new beginnings, this issue, which is all about reinvention, growth and rejuvenation, could not feel more timely.

Capturing the mood for newness perfectly is our cover fashion story which feels so bright and optimistic. From the fun and frivolity of the feather pink Louise Kennedy two-piece to the cool of the Colin Burke knit, styled with a silver brocade skirt, I love everything that contributing fashion editor Sinéad Keenan has picked for this edit. You can see more of Sinéad’s fashion picks in her new column, and for more inspiring style directions, peruse deputy editor Megan Burns’ new season trend edit.

For all the details on how to wear denim now, check out writer Suzie Coen’s round-up (clue: the answer is, there is no one way to wear denim, as anything goes – hurray!), and if you are looking for ideas for workwear, we have more fashion pages in our new look Agenda section.

We hope this issue brings you so much joy too. Happy spring!
