Summer has well and truly arrived and the country is currently basking in a heat wave, yippee. Keeping cool is a must during this seriously hot weather, while staying super stylish too, so it’s good job there are some fabulous trends this season to keep us looking and feeling cool this summer.

The summer season is all about being able to wear fabulously floaty dresses, seriously stylish swing tops, beautiful bikinis and of course, not forgetting those all-important accessories, think big beach bags, floral headbands and bangles galore.

This glorious sunny weather is the perfect excuse to rock the hottest trend this season, big and bold brights.

This beautifully bold trend is everywhere at the moment, from the designer catwalks to the rails of our favourite high street stores, you’re sure to find some gems this season which will have you looking super stylish and bang on trend.

Think tie-dye, aztec and floral prints, in gorgeous shades of beautifully bright colours such as reds, oranges, pinks, purples, greens and blues, there are no boundaries with this fabulous trend, and the great news is there is something to suit every shape and size.

The 80’s disco has made a huge comeback this season, with neon pieces flying of the rails, taking the bright trend to a roller-skating, disco balling new level, luscious limes, pretty pinks, melon yellows and gorgeous greens, neon’s are hot stuff, and the perfect way to brighten up your summer look, pair a bright top with an Aztec print skirt and some neon accessories for that sizzling on trend look.

Whether your off to a BBQ, a day at the races, a wedding, or even jet setting on holiday, these looks can be worn whatever the occasion, mix and match with bold brights and pretty prints and be sure to accessorize any look with a very on trend statement necklace, which is sure to complete your summer look, whilst keeping you looking bang on trend.

When shopping for your summer staples and putting that all important afternoon-in-the-beer-garden outfit together, think like you’re going to the Rio carnival, whether it’s accessories, that gorgeous summer maxi, or a  summery pair of sandals, just remember, be bold and go bright this summer.
