Summer Style Guide

What are this seasons top 5 Summer trends?

Ah, Summer. You beauty. 

If you're anything like me, the warmer weather is my time to shine. It's sometimes hard to nail the perfect outfit when it's too hot to function, but where there's a will, there's a way!

So, what style do you rock in Summer?

Romantic

(Shoes: Valentino, Dress: Zimmermann, Clutch: YSL, Nail Polish: O.P.I, Necklace: Pamela Love, Ring: River Island). 

All about laces, florals, nudes and blush tones. 

Nothing like seeing this look rocked with a sun kissed tan and beach wave hair.

Modernist

(Top: Balmain, Shoes: Marni, Skirt: Just Cavalli, Bag: Phillip Lim, Rings: Pacsun, Lipstick: YSL). 

For a stronger look, stick to heavy pieces like a leather skirt teamed with a basic top and statement accessories (that bag, though). 

A simple hair style and natural beauty look creates a sleek and stylish finish.

Surf, Sun & Salt

(Bikinis: Kiini, Sunglasses: Rayban, Beach Towel: Serena & Lily, Slides: Charlotte Russe, Hat: Lack of Colour).

I couldn't be happier this old school look has returned for beach trips this summer! 

Crochet bikinis teamed with a broad brim boater makes me wish I could travel back in time travel to the 70's.

Back to Basics

(Top: Helmut Lang, Bra: Jean Yu Eden, Vintage shorts: Etsy, Shoes: Converse, Sunglasses: Alexander Wang). 

Can you say summer uniform? 

I'm still on the eternal hunt for the perfect fitting pair of denim shorts, they're out there somewhere!  

Alternative

(Singlet: Urban Outfitters, Shoes: Balenciaga, Sunglasses: Le Specs, Hat: Net-A-Porter, Bra: VPL, Shorts: Tigha Tara, Bracelet: Chrome Hearts).

I firmly believe there's nothing quite like owning a rock chick look and feeling unstoppable. 

All I can think of Kate Moss at Coachella and it makes me want to buy a ticket to the next festival. 

Even though Winter is fast approaching, I'll live in denial until I can no longer step outside in just a singlet without the possibility of developing pneumonia.
