Mistral Clothing – Why I Love My Outfit So Much

amomentwithfranca · 22 June 2019 · 25 Comments

I love new clothes! Who doesn’t? Especially when you come across a new company with a great range of items that are made in the UK. I love supporting small businesses and when I received some pieces from Mistral recently, I fell in love with them immediately.

Who Is Mistral?

John and Tracey are a father and daughter team who both have a natural passion for casual wear. They realised they complimented each other professionally as their business and the creative forces aligned. As well as raising her new young family Tracey found time to be the creative influence behind the first Mistral shop which opened in Malmesbury in the mid-1990s.

The Mistral brand made its home in Wiltshire and soon the business began to grow. Mistral began with five staff including John and Tracey and the team worked hard to open store after store but by the 14th store, their work was still not done. By listening to their customer’s needs, creating fun clothing, keeping their business and manufacturing processes to the highest possible standards, whilst developing an impressive in house print style the brand became firmly established. Mistral now proudly have 19 shops and employ approximately 160 people with the head office still firmly planted like a strong oak in the heart of Wiltshire.

My Outfit From Mistral

I was lucky enough to be sent three pieces to try out from their collection. The African Beads Airy Fairy Skirt – £54.99, Nice Cuppa Cardi in Eclipse – £39.99 and the Me Me Cami in White – £12.99.

It is such a cute outfit altogether. All three pieces really compliment each other. The skirt and cardi are both 100% cotton and are so comfortable to wear. They are a really great fit too, very stylish and flattering! The cami is 95% cotton and 5% elastane.

I really love the items separately and together. The skirt is really lovely to wear and I love the pattern on it. It sits just below my knees which makes it great to wear with boots or flat shoes. I feel it is a piece you can dress up or down with different style tops and shoes, don’t you think?

The cardi is so flattering, I really love it. As it is cotton too, it is really nice to wear and looks so good on! It also has pockets which are a bonus and especially handy when you don’t have a bag or coat! Or to just keep your hands in. It pairs really well with the floaty skirt too and pulls it together as an outfit.

The cami is so cute. It has thin straps but also pintuck detail on the chest with two pearl buttons. It is a close fitting top but really easy to wear and would be perfect for when we get some sun! I am thinking of ordering more in different colours for other outfits too!

I love this outfit and I am so pleased to be able to show Mistral and their great collection with you!

What do you think of this Mistral Clothing outfit? Have you shopped with Mistral before?

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️
