Currently Trending - Summer Essentials

Summer is quite obviously everyone's favourite season, though dressing for a day out when you can't rely on the sunshine is beginning to turn into a bit of a chore. My most common mistake is pessimistically judging the weather and going out in a winter coat when it's nearing 20 degrees and sunny. 

Here are a few staples for summer, which can be dressed up or down and be worn in rain or shine. 

No. 1: Graphic Print Sheer Pom-Pom Hemmed Top
This top is such a gorgeous print! It reminds me of a snake/Amazonian style. The picture really doesn't do it justice as the pinks and yellows really brighten it up and give it a cool summer feel. The pom-pom hem adds some femininity and a definite wow factor. This could be worn with black jeans for an edgy look, black skirt on a summers evening out or even on the beach on top of a bikini as a fake kaftan.

2: Boat Shoes + A Little Added NEON
I'm starting to become an absolute shoe addict. These gorgeous boat shoes are from River Island and I got them at a bargain for around £13. The colour is a dark navy though the cut out style adds a level of texture and stops them from looking anything close to boring. The added bright yellow, neon stripe is probably my favourite feature of these summer perfect shoes. Neon is so on trend and the strip along the sole is the perfect amount of brightness. 

3: Statement Necklace and Chunky Brights 
Favourite summer piece alert! I am so in love with this statement necklace from Primark. The gunmetal silver spikes and turquoise and coral beads are the perfect combination and really compliment each other. I'm usually wearing this necklace with a plain white t-shirt and orange cardigan, both from H&M, jeggings and the shoes above. A plain white t-shirt is a great staple for a summer wardrobe, it goes with anything and always looks fresh and timeless.
