  • Smoking ‘Hot’ Summer Trends

Fancy florals, pure pastels, statement stripes, distressed denims, flowy dresses, or deconstructed shirts, there are a plethora of style options for women to indulge in this summer.

 
It’s finally that time of the year when you can happily ditch the boring woollens and let your skin embrace the warmth of the most upbeat season of the year, yes, it time to say, ‘Hello to the Summers’.  

The season brings the perfect excuse to re-shuffle your wardrobe and indulge in the sinful game of shopping. And the choices that are currently trending on the fashion circuit have never been so enticing. From bohemian silhouettes to athleisure styles, the retailer’s current ready-to-wear selection boasts of many trends. 
 

Ladies, here are some of the chicest styles to spice-up your summer look. 

 
Pastel Passion
 
Subtly echoing the spirit of summer this season is the pastel palette. This ladylike and sweet shades are a rage this season. Perfectly mix-matched with several neutral hues of the same family, the pastel trend is refreshing and easy on the eye. 
 
Fancy Florals
 
Head-to-toe florals were a huge hit on the ramp and are also ground-breaking on the streets. A definite hit, this look is perfect to enhance your feminism and keep your silhouette light and beautiful when the mercury rises. 
 
 
Cold Shoulder & Off Shoulder
 
Believe us, this summer there is nothing hotter than giving the cold shoulder, so don’t be afraid to show them off.  From the runway to the streets, this ‘80s trend, with an array of fresh styles, is undoubtedly dominating the fashion circuit this season. Edgy yet feminine, these styles are a summer must-have. We suggest add to your cart now.   
 
Statement Stripes
 
Stripes never went out of fashion, however this season statement stripes have become bigger than ever. Shirts, tops, skirts, jackets, shorts, bottoms, footwears… they are dominating every style. This summer stripes simply can’t be ignored.
 
 
The Deconstructed Shirt
 
It’s time to shove aside your conventional button-down shirts at the corner of your closet, it’s the era of deconstructed shirts. With smart and unexpected twists like ruffles, over-sized sleeves, peek-a-boo cut-outs, these shirts are perfect to take on the rising temperatures with style.  
 
Maxi Dresses
 
When the temperatures go soaring high, it’s time to strut in these long flowy dresses, which you can wear for almost any occasions. They are not only trending but also ideal to beat the summer heat. Absolutely feminine and lovely, they are an apt choice if you desire for a sexy silhouette. 
 
 
 
 
Overstated Sleeves
 
Blouses and tops with exaggerated sleeves, ruffles, bell sleeves, sleeves with tassels are not only perfect for the warm weather but will also help you make a stunning style statement. 
 
 
 
Printed/Frayed Shorts
 
What’s better to beat the summer heat than flaunting your well-toned stems in a pair of shorts. But this summer ditch your usual denim/linen shorts and instead opt for either some bright, eye-catching set of printed shorts or frayed denim shorts. Trust us, they are a big deal this season.  
 
Distressed/Patched Denims
 
The classic ‘60s & ‘70s street-styled patched and distressed denims are back in vogue. And they are looking as fresh and cool as ever. Paired with basic tees they are ideal to spice-up your warm-weather look. 
 
 
 
Slogan Tees
 
It’s time to get heard with statement t-shirts. Slogan tees have become a rage across the globe and is considered one of the boldest trend by top fashion designers. 
 
Peek-A-Boo Dresses
Playful at the same time sexy, peek-a-boo dresses are this season’s fashion favourites. A hit at the parties as well as ideal for day-to-day wear, these dresses are definitely a wardrobe staple to sexily take on the rising temperatures. 
 
Athleisure Styles
 
Completely resonating the fast and ever changing urban lifestyle, athleisure trend has taken over the runway and streets alike. This comfortable style can be worn for workouts and even for an evening out with friends. No wonder it is such a big hit.
