5 Essential Pieces You Should Be Wearing Right Now

Spring Fashion TrendsThe sun is finally out and we couldn’t be happier. Roll on the sandals, bbq’s in the park, bare legs and lunch break tanning opportunities. To bring you up to speed with what you should we rocking now warmer climes are upon us STYLIGHT have compiled a list of the top 5 pieces that’ll work hard in the style stakes for you this summer.

  1. Power Trousers

You’re sure to cut a stylish silhouette in this season’s biggest trend: The 70’s. For a subtle nod to the trend try flares or culottes which are easy to dress up with heeled sandals and a cropped shirt but look equally stylish dressed down with slides and a simple tee. Plus! They’re great at elongating your legs, think of them as an instant diet!

  1. Fringe Benefits

Fringing is going to be huge this season. So channel your inner hippie child and give fringed jackets, dresses and cropped tees a try. There are also some great versions of fringed bucket bags – the it-bag shape of the season.

  1. Cool Coverups

We’re loving kimonos and all kinds of cool coverups for summer. The right one will instantly pull an otherwise bland look together and you’ll use it all the time: for those chillier summer nights spent on roof terraces to throwing over your bikini on holiday. We’re big fans of embellished styles or for a more casual look try a stylish duster coat.

  1. Modern Crochet

Crochet is back in a big way and what’s best is that it’ll work for every date in your summer diary especially festivals. Take cue from the style elite at Coachella and rock 70’s inspired crochet vest tops and pasted hued crochet trimmed dresses.

  1. Flatforms

In our books, the uglier the shoe the better! We’re loving flatforms in all their chunky goodness this season. Patterned pairs will be perfect for summer, or for a softer look, try espadrille platforms which are available at the likes of ASOS in a range of colourful tones.
