summer trends

December has finally arrived which means it's officially summer! Summer is my favourite time of year (not only because it includes Christmas and my birthday) but because it's the time of year you get to spend endless weekends soaking up summer rays at festivals, the beach and at parties with friends. 

With so much on this time of year it's hard to keep up with what's on trend and have a perfect outfit for every occasion, so I've decided that over the next few weeks I'll be sharing three of my favourite summer trends that will keep you looking fresh and super stylish for the entire season.

I love the boho girl. The dreamy, calm, cool and collected appearance of a gypsy soul. 

Their pieces literally work for any event and can be transitioned from day-to-night so effortlessly just by swapping flats for heels and adding a few eye-catching accessories. 

The bohemian style is always on trend especially during the warmer months when beach days and attending festivals are a regular activity and the greatest thing about it is you only need a few key pieces to turn any outfit into a boho dream. 

By simply adding a printed kimono and some crystal or gemstone accessories to a plain outfit you can create a bohemian vibe - add to that a crocheted crop-top, a big floppy hat and anything with fringing and you are pretty much the definition of this trend.

My bohemian style icon would definitely be Vanessa Hudgens, she always looks so effortlessly put together but still super stylish at the same time.

 You can also source inspiration by checking out what other high-profiles or bloggers have worn to more chilled out festivals such as Coachella and Splendour in the Grass.

Bohemian is such an easy trend to pull off and one that will not only keep you cool during the summer period but one that will already go with alot of basic pieces in your existing wardrobe and be on trend all year round.

Here are just a few inspiration pics that caught my eye and really capture this trend.
