Yay! Summer is on its way and the sun is shining! For the best women’s clothing, let’s hit the high street and splash some cash.

Primark, as usual, are leading the way with cheap and cheerful pieces that won’t break the budget. Grab the pale denim shirts and jeans for a cute double-denim look. Pick up some pretty florals – the 50’s style frock, embellished with sweet bows, is perfect for work and play or the sheer blouses with rose print are great for the weekend. Lace is featured heavily this season, showcased on dresses (with sexy lace panels), dainty tops and mini-skirts.

Next, as you would expect, has classic, timeless pieces that won’t date quickly. A slightly neutral palette, you’ll find gorgeous floral dresses with quirky detailing that are perfect with leggings or go bare. Like Primark, denim features heavily with the fabulous pale denim ruffled dress a versatile key piece of this collection. Stripes are also popular and the oversized sweater is great with the latest denim shorts for a relaxed look.
 
The Miss Selfridge collection has a romantic ‘Great Gatsby’ feel about it with straw boaters, bows and florals, interspersed with washed denim and colourful knits. There’s a definite 80’s feel with exaggerated puff sleeves, sheer fabrics and just a touch of metallic.

Good old Dorothy Perkins has some affordable variations on the catwalk classics. See the gorgeous white lace shift dress, perfect for summer with a vintage denim jacket and beaded or metallic gladiators. Again, stripes are prominent paired with funky denim shorts. Tailoring features shorts and fitted jackets, mimicking a key catwalk look.
