The Asymmetric Cut

007Top – New Look, £20 // Skirt – Boohoo, £12 // Choker – Mango, £14.99 // Bronzer – NARS in ‘Laguna’, £27.50 // Lipstick – Mac in ‘Velvet Teddy’, £15.50 // Shoes – Charlotte Russe, £25

This is a look that wouldn’t look out of place on a Kardashian, and it’s all about the glamour. This pairing may be plain, but the asymmetric shape and cut out panels modernise the look, with on-point accents such as lace-up heels and a barely-there choker – just add bronzer and you’re ready to go!

Sports Luxe

Sports-inspired looks are always fun, and with 90s throwbacks still very much in fashion, there are lots of options available with this look. Sleek accessories liven up a basic skirt and top duo – style with a high ponytail in a retro scrunchie, and you’ll look too good to hit the gym!

The Metallic Skirt

One of the trickiest trends to pull off at the moment would be metallic skirts – a look which doesn’t always have to look space-age. Keep things subdued with this gorgeous rose gold skirt, teamed with white and nude accessories for a more subtle, wearable look.

Coachella Hippy Chic

The most stylish music festival on the planet showcased some gorgeous hippie-inspired looks by our favourite celebrities this year. This statement skirt might seem daring at first, but when paired with the right jewellery and a minimalist matching bralet, then you’re ready to party in style.

The A-Line Midi

Channelling retro-inspired looks without looking old-fashioned can be difficult, but the trick is to use staple retro pieces (here, a classic skirt teamed with a bardot neckline) and update them using accessories. Not only do the pastels transform this look into the 21st century, but the metalics add a chic, ultramodern twist.

Monochrome Co-ords

Make heads turn by updating a monochrome co-ords set with a daring pop of colour. Bright yellow may not be for the faint hearted, but the bright heel of these shoes combined with a statement bag is enough to shake up your outfit without looking too loud.

The Bohemian Maxi

This trend is all over the high street at the moment, and an effortless boho style can be thrown together in minutes and still look fabulous. Play down a bold print with darker colours, then accessorise with everything in-fitting with the trend – fringing and gladiator sandals are a must!
