This summer on the high street you’ll find lots of linen, lace and boho vibes in muted tones, as well as raffia and ruffles - so we’ve rounded up our top three picks of unmissable summer buys to add to your wardrobe this season.

Ruffle some feathers

If you’re looking for a dress that’s a total knockout, try Monsoon’s Renata Ruffle Maxi Dress (£125). It comes in yellow, sage, blush, red and navy. Go for blush for a romantic feel - great for a boho wedding guest vibe - or yellow to hit the bar on your summer getaway.

Pair with heels and statement jewellery for a night out, a fascinator for more formal occasions, and sandals and a basket bag for a more beachy, casual look.

Beach vibes

Nothing says summer like a basket weave handbag, and this one from Fable brings a little luxury with its satin fabric detail. It oozes vintage charm, and is perfect for picnics, beach trips or an everyday summer handbag. It’s also in the sale - you can buy it now for £45 down from £72.

Love your linen

There’s loads of linen trousers on the high street right now, and we love these beige Linen Rich Straight Leg Trousers by Nobody’s Child (£65) available at Marks & Spencer. Pair with a smart shirt for work, or a crop top for a more casual summer look - and this muted shade will go well with most colours, so experiment and add a pop of colour with your top or accessories.

This breathable fabric is great for hot days, so it’s a great comfy pick to wear on the flight - and you won’t be boiling when you touch down in warmer climates.
