The new year brings with it a new fashion season, one that is resplendent with colour, striking with metallics and shimmer, alluring with sheers and exposed shoulders yet relaxed with shirt dresses and robes.

While every fashionista worth her weight in gold is sure to try as many of these Spring Summer style fixes as possible, we present to you five trends that amateurs can slip into effortlessly.

Yellow

This season, being fashionable is as easy as adding a pop of yellow to your ensemble. Experiment with different sunshine hues to stay on point.

Floral

Splurge on retro 70s-inspired floral separates to update your wardrobe. Brightly coloured busy prints are the way to go.

Stripes

Vertical, horizontal, diagonal, monochrome, vivid-hued, broad, narrow – pick a stripe that works for you to keep it stylish.

Polka Dots

Whether you opt for bold spots or tiny dots, remember to work the trend in a black and white palette.

Jumpsuits

Chic and comfortable in equal measure, jumpsuits continue to rule the roost. If you don’t already own one, now’s the time to invest!
