"I haven't taken it off": 12 things the Mamamia team shopped this month.

Although it doesn't exactly feel like spring yet (hear about the "rain bomb" coming?), warmer weather is in fact on its way.

Daylight savings starts this weekend and the festive season won't be far behind that, which can mean only one thing: we need outfits. Stat.

In September, the Mamamia team have been busy stocking up on summery dresses, colourful shirts and sandals that'll see us through the sunny days ahead.

Here's everything we bought this month, and why we rate it.

Before we get into it, listen to Mamamia's fashion podcast, What Are You Wearing?. Post continues below.

"I live in Cotton On tanks and I'm convinced this new silhouette is the perfect singlet, it's such a flattering cut. There's a two-for-$30 deal so I snapped up four neutral colours - that's my spring layering sorted!" - Tamara Holland, Head of Lifestyle and host of 'What Are You Wearing?'. 

Mango Vent Cotton Dress, $89.95, and Striped Jersey Dress, $69.95.

"Mango has such good stuff at the moment and while I could fill my cart with many dresses, tops, and shoes, I've narrowed it down to just two dresses: this sky blue cotton midi and green stripped button down. I can see myself wearing both often." - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Billini Chantel Heels, $89.95 (currently 30 per cent off).

"I have a few pairs of heels from Billini and always find them comfy and easy to wear. These ones were recently on sale, so I stoked up on another pair!" - Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

"I was kindly gifted this necklace recently and I haven't taken it off since - it's from the Aussie brand's new 'Angel Numbers' collection, and as someone who makes a silly little wish on 11:11 every day, I love it. It's dainty and means something." - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Aje Gianna Puff Sleeve Mini Dress, $375.

"This dress from Aje has me entering my Barbie-core era. She's big bust friendly, super comfortable and a spring staple. I also love that I can go braless in it, but still look put together." - Lara Severino, Content Manager at Squad.

Decjuba Petra Oversized Shirt, $99.95.

"I've always been a fan of Decjuba's shirting and blouses, and the brand kindly gifted me this oversized shirt knowing it was just my vibe! It delivers effortlessness and polish at the same time, and the colour feels like this season's answer to the green we've seen everywhere." - Tamara Holland, Head of Lifestyle and host of 'What Are You Wearing?'.

Saint Valentine Monaco Mini Hoops, $90.

"I love these earrings from Saint Valentine. They're so pretty and dainty, and they look so nice stacked with other earrings on a night out." - Brielle Burns, News Writer.

Cotton On Dad Shirt, $39.99.

"Following on from the Barbie-core... I nabbed this shirt from Cotton On because the colour was so happy. I also really wanted these shoes but they were ridiculously uncomfortable – so I'm on the hunt for alternatives!" - Katie Stow, Evening Editor.

"I succumbed to TikTok trends and bought red ballet flats on the weekend and am obsessed. So easy to wear with nice straight leg denim jeans." - Susannah Makin, The Skin Summit Event Producer.

"I recently went to a hen's party where the dress code was 'bright and colourful', and came across this guy from Dazie! I don't wear a lot of pink, but it just felt so fun and happy. Bonus points - it was super comfy." - Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

"After weeks of thinking about them, I snapped up these new summer sandals - I love the petrol/teal colour. While the website is sadly wholesale only, you can find them in at their store in Bondi!" - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.
