It is the last leg of summer. In no time the chunky knits and warm leggings and layers will become the forefront of our wardrobes again. Might as well make the most of whatever summer is left, right?
If you’re planning on boarding a plane to a tropical destination, why not channel your inner beach goddess with vivid shades and sheer fabrics? Vibrant colours are taking center stage this season and whether you choose to go all out or add just a touch of something bright, this is one trend you can’t ignore.
Here City Break
In the summer months, a city break can be just as much fun as a trip further afield. Busy cities often mean higher temperatures, so it’s important to dress lightly and stay cool.
Chic separates are very much in for 2013. If you team them with the right accessories, you can easily dress your style up or down. Key essentials include a straw hat, a striped jewelled dress, a pair of oversized sunglasses, wedges, smart shorts and a few easy t-shirts.
Here Seaside Retreat
A beach holiday is one of the most relaxing ways to unwind, especially after a heavy few months in the office. It is however important to pack for the location – deckchair stripes for the day and a light cover for the evenings will often do the trick.
A Dressy Affair
If you’ve been invited to a wedding abroad, packing attire that is both cool and stylish is a must. Solid color dresses from Lipsy are a great idea. Not only is the monochrome trend big this season, but also a well-fitted dress allows you to show off your silhouette and style! Team with sandals and a pashmina for an effortless chic.

Farmer's Market
If you do not have a vacation coming up or have already used your summer-quota (like me! *sob*), weekends can be just as much fun. Visit farmer's market or do a Sunday brunch with friends. Pick a comfy-casual-outfit. Show off those legs while there is still time.
Are you a summer-person or a fall-person?
