Summer style guide

The sun is shining, the days are getting longer and warmer temperatures are certainly upon us. Although things might be a little different during summer 2020, we can still rock a great outfit! 

The catwalks have shown us that a few trends will be making a comeback from summer last year, and some spring fashion trends will be around for a little while longer, but there will be plenty of new trends to try out, too.

Whether you’re relaxing in the garden, heading to the park or having a video call with the family, we’ve put together this summer style guide to help you decide what should be in your wardrobe this season.

A hint of 90s minimalism

The 90s certainly brought us some questionable fashion trends but minimalism is one 90s trend that has stood the test of time. Think black dress numbers, white longline skirts and grey shirts. 90s minimalist style is back for summer 2020 and we’re here for it.

Pair your 90s minimalist outfit with a pair of golden frames to brighten up your outfit. We’ll be wearing Brooklyn in Gold and Brooklyn Sun in Pewter.

Jungle print

Another summer style you’ll want to get your hands on in 2020 is jungle print. It all started with Jennifer Lopez on the Versace runway back in March. Since then, jungle print has swept the globe and is set to be one of the biggest trends this year. From oversized shirts to print dresses and bikinis, we’re anticipating lots of jungle print from retailers this year.

But what eyewear should you pair your own jungle pieces with this summer? Opt for black or gold for a contrasting look – such as Axel Sun in Black and Frankie in Tortoise.

It’s all about the midi and maxi

From bright florals to simple whites, midi and maxi dresses will sweep the high street again in summer 2020. If you’ve got some in the back of your wardrobe from summer last year, you’ll definitely want to dig them out this season.

Pair your midi and maxi dresses with bold frames that can’t be missed. We’re thinking Ritchie in Tortoise and Cyrus Sun in Tortoise.

Sunset colours

What would summer be without a great sunset? Summer 2020’s style palette resembles an unforgettable sunset. We’re talking uplifting yellows, bright oranges and dusky reds to really set the tone this season.

Pair your sunset chic with Dayton Sun in Gold and Sloane in Claret.

Don’t forget your shoulder bag

Every woman needs a great accessory this summer – and that accessory is the shoulder bag. Basket and rattan bags are in, as are nostalgic 90s bags with strappy handles.
