Update your spring summer wardrobe by catching up with this season’s trends.
WHITE DRESSES
Et Vous Broiderie Dress | Matalan | £38
Though usually reserved for one special day, white dresses are making a statement on the runway this year. The simple shade gives a classic look to the garment and really allows you to choose fabrics which have elaborate details and patterns. This dress from Matalan has a clean-cut collar, buttons, a tie at the waist, and laser cut flower patterns but altogether it comes off as chic and minimalistic.

FLORALS
Tree Of Life Narrative Silk Square Scarf | Fable England | £80
Though floral patterns always come around every spring, this year’s catwalks are giving this predictable twist a groundbreaking twist. Instead of floral print on dresses why not try to incorporate flowers in new ways such as broches, a statement choker necklace, or in a luxurious scarf like this one from Fable England. Depending on the size of your scarf, you can wear it traditionally around your head, as a headband or headscarf, or tie it to your handbag strap to bring the details of your outfit together.

SHORTS
Linen Pleat Blue Short | Oliver Bonas | £25
Short shorts are officially in! Straying away from your typical denim, runways saw short shorts in several variations from tailored suit shorts worn with an oversized blazer, to colourful beach shorts. These pleated blue shorts from Oliver Bonas are easy to style for those wanting to experiment with shorts since the pleats can make it look like a skirt. Excellent for a warm day at the beach, these linen shorts are comfortable and more practical than a skirt.

CRAFT
Khaki Sleeveless Crochet Hem Midi Dress | Roman | £40
Craft fabrics and embellishments are taking over spring and summer fashion. This could be with a touch of embroidery, pom poms, feathers, or with crochet details like in this dress. Craft details can give your outfit texture and an unexpected flare depending on how out there you wish to go; you might be surprised to find that you already have craft details in your wardrobe in woven bags or wedge heels.

SPORTSWEAR
Second Skin Leggings | Lola Starr | £70
Sportswear influences have continued in this year’s spring fashion. This year leggings, especially ones with a cropped hem, show a continuation of last year’s biker shorts trend. They can be worn to soften formal pieces like leather pumps or an oversized blazer.
