STYLE // TROPICOOL


Hi girls! Because summer is arising in the UK (yay!) and I will start to go shopping for summer pieces very soon - I thought a summer clothing blogpost would be perfect! The tropical trend is something creeping into fashion this summer and is becoming hugely popular. I found some lovely pieces across the most popular high-street fashion stores that tie in with this trend and I also tried to mix and match different clothing items such as playsuits, trousers, shorts etc so this post can benefit lots of different people who may not want to show off their legs this summer and like to cover up their body.



This lace trim tropical print shorts are from Missguided and oh my gosh.. they look INCREDIBLE! I love the added detail of the black lace at the bottom and the pockets which ties in with the black tropical colour theme on the actual shorts. I am obsessed with black clothing at the moment and this item makes it suitable to wear black in the summer by adding a touch of pale pink and a tropical print. This would look perfect with a plain tee tucked in it or a plain tight fitted crop  top. You could also pair this with a simple pair of sandals or even chelsea boots.


This palm tree print playsuit is from New Look and I am just LOVING New Look at the moment! I never used to find anything in there that really caught my eye but recently I have been loving their clothes and how well they fit in with the current trends this summer. Playsuits are my no.1 this summer as they are so comfortable and don't show off too much skin and they also look so flattering on any body shape! Again, the playsuit makes it acceptable to wear black in the summer.

I found these range of tight-fitted crop tops on the Miss Selfridge website. I decided to include this as it is an essential for basics in your wardrobe as they go with anything and work well in any season. I love the fact that they come in a variety of different colours and even some floral prints! They can be paired with basically anything that takes your fancy… jeans, shorts, skirts. For just £8, I think they are a crucial clothing piece as you would really get good use of wear out of them all throughout the year.

This gorgeous blue floral playsuit is from Missguided and is only £24.99! I think it is well priced due to the high quality of Missguided clothing and for a long-lasting playsuit you can wear all throughout spring/summer, you can’t go wrong really!
I’m sure you’ve heard so many bloggers rave about print trousers this season but.. I’m gonna join in with the rave anyway! This is definitely my favourite trend at the moment and because I love wearing trousers as I don’t always like showing my legs, and I’m trying to add a bit more colour to my clothing at the moment, these are perfect! These lovely pair are from Miss Selfridge and they are only £28! Now I think that’s amazing pricing for Miss Selfridge as they can usually be quite pricing and not in people’s budget range (well mine anyway!). I would recommend every girl purchasing an item like this for summer as I just think they look beautiful and would suit any bodyshape. They are sold pretty much anywhere.. New Look, Topshop, Primark.. it depends on how much money you want to splash out to be honest.
What’s your clothing essential this summer?
