Turning tribal
We've drawn inspiration from the international runways but added our own how-to-wear advice to make sure you've got the confidence and the know-how to try the trends out for yourself. Fashion is all about experimenting and playing dress-up - so whether it's rumble-in-the-jungle tribal spots and stripes or
maritime-inspired prints, no matter what your body shape is, we've covered all grounds. Prints in all colours of the rainbow also explode on to the scene this summer as do candy-coloured hues. The first drop of summer ranges should be hitting the stores now, so start moving dreary and drab winter colours to the back of the wardrobe to make plenty of room for cheerful prints and delectable pops of colour.
Bronzed beauty
Summer beauty is all about glowing, sun-kissed skin. However, achieving the bronzed goddess look on the beach, under the sun, comes with a hefty price tag - in this issue we explore the battle against sun damage in depth and show you how to achieve a golden glow the safe way. We look to the world of high fashion for the latest in hair trends - dishevelled, unkempt locks will turn heads on and off the beach. With the party season just around the corner, think manicured locks (we can't get enough of top-knot updos) paired with blood red lips and sultry lashes.
We're adoring adornments
The warmer weather brings out the playful side in all of us and this summer is no exception. Sunglasses, handbags, shoes, and jewels are a quick way to reinvent your look and add a little something extra to your new summer outfits. We're so in love with stunning accessories that we've dedicated an entire shoot to them. Hopefully we'll all be saying "hello sunshine" soon, so we can put our new sunnies and sculptural sandals to long-awaited, good use.
