FROM THE
EDITOR S
pring is one of those seasons that never quite lives up to your expectations. We fantasise about pleasantly warm afternoons, sun-kissed skin and soft-focus floaty romantic florals, but sometimes we get stuck with days of grey drizzle. That’s why it’s important to make the most of the opportunities that our surroundings offer. There’s always somewhere interesting to go, whether it’s heading out for a meal, visiting a farm shop, exploring the countryside, looking at the fresh crop of street art that the NUART festival will bring, going to a Trend event, updating your look or just indulging in a bit of shopping. Whatever the weather, spring brings the chance to grow and reinvent ourselves. Take up a new sport or creative activity, head outdoors with the kids or update your home or garden with a few new plants or a pot of paint. The stagnation of winter is over and you’ll find plenty of inspiration in this issue. It’s time to put forth new shoots!
