All the news about the sun going away for ever? Bollocks. According to our favourite weather source the month ahead is looking pretty damn cushty for an English summer. So that means one thing, summer fashion is still going to be very much 'a thing' for the next month. Here's some inspiration to kick off your August, now your post-payday bank account is looking as healthy as your tanned cheeks.
Just because it's sunny doesn't mean you have to look like an exploded paintbox. Take a leaf out of minimal queen Frida's book and go monochrome h2t. Quay Australia have a great version of these clear sunnies for a mere £27.
If you're swanning off to any summer weddings or parties, consider a midi skirt. This printed one looks ace with a plain top and heels and you're safe from any risk of flashing.
Summer staples have to be great denim, sandals and a cotton top. With these things you're sorted for summer, whatever you pair them with.
I mean we don't all have an epic cactus in our back garden for those perfect insta snaps. But we can still wear cute one-pieces with mirror sunnies and a fedora to pretend we're in LA. Sunday sorted.
These trainers are EVERYWHERE on Instagram. The best thing is they're super easy to wear and go with everything from jeans to floaty dresses. Find them at Office, £61.99.
Socks can be a saviour when it's hot. They mean no sweaty feet and generally are pretty flattering if you have wide ankles like me (or it's just a weird complex). This shirt is bloody amazing and we want it NOW.
We say YES to t-shirts in summer. Particularly a fan of red or blue on white for that Parisienne feel. Check out Etre Cecile, Commes Des Garcons and Peter Jensen for quality cuts with ace designs.
Siki Msuseni does fifty shades of blue and it sure looks damn fine. The shirt and jacket smarten up the jeans and trainers, and the headscarf finishes off the look a treat. Yes alllll over.
