SPIRIT LOVES: May Edition

MAY EDITION 

From blooming gardens and finger sandwich-filled afternoon teas to alfresco dining and weekend escapes, May is the month where it’s all to play for.

The weather — dare we say it? — is actually good, which means the list of things to do is pleasantly long for a change! This month, we’ve rounded up some incredible days and nights out to inspire the adventurous, the artsy, and the most civilised among us — think flower shows, long walks, and art galleries.

And for the shopping fiends? We’ve curated a list of standout products from both new and returning Spirit brands, all bringing the sunshine and style to your spring and summer. You can thank us later!
