Any self-respecting fashionista will by now be sick of having to cover up in black tights and overcoats — has this winter been going on forever? Well now there is no need for doom and gloom, especially in the wardrobe department, as summer brights have hit the shelves.
First up — River Island has gone tribal with this quirky outfit making a splash statement on the high street. The skirt comes in at £29.99, the bead and shell belt at £39.99 — a bit pricey but will really transform any look. The orange and yellow snakeskin clutch comes in at £24.99 and will go perfectly well with a little black dress or in this colour clashing way.
Add the platform shoes to elongate the legs for £84.99. Also pricey but well worth it when you consider the usage factor. Whack on these neon pink earrings at £9.99 for extra colour pop value.
If you only fancy a dash of colour then why not go for this one shoulder colour block dress from Primark at just £13? The asymmetric detail gives it a high-end feel without breaking the bank.
You’ll be green with envy if you don’t bag yourself this clutch from Miss Selfridge. For just £20 you can add a splash of colour yet stay on the safe side of the trend. The forest green trim gives it an added dimension and two tone is bang on-trend.
If you fancy a little bit of colour pop but don’t want to go block then try this t-shirt from Jane Norman. At £25 it’s an easy outfit to go out in, just team it with some wet-look leggings and killer heels and you’re on your way.
The easiest way to add colour is with a belt. Try this red straw one from Dorothy Perkins for £8. Sling it around your jeans in the day or over a summer dress in the evening. It’s a cheap way to buy into the trend without going overboard.
If you’re feeling blue then why not try this blue bow shoe at £12 from Matalan. It’s got all this summer’s trends going on: ruffles — check, platform — check, cobalt colour — check.
