1. Boho
Every summer, boho makes a comeback and, as it's definitely making a reappearance for SS16, this trend looks set to stay for years to come.
Flower hair garlands, tie dye, vintage jewellery, fringing, floppy hats, paisley, feathers, floaty skirts, hand chains, lots of embroidery, and denim cut-off shorts are all key for this trend. And, as festival season gets into full swing, we'll be seeing much much more of boho.
2. All stripe everything
As you will know from my last post, I have a slight obsession with stripes, so a lot of my spring/summer 2016 wardrobe is very much the epitome of this key trend for the season.
As I mentioned last time, Zara, Topshop, Missguided, Sandro, Miss Selfridge, and Karen Millen, all have a great selection of stripe pieces, ideal for spring/summer 2016.
3. Bardot
In recent months, the Bardot neckline has taken the fashion world by storm. Whether it be a jumpsuit, playsuit, dress, or top, this look is set to be everywhere this coming season.
The Bardot neckline is already that popular that Missguided has a dedicated 'Bardot dress' section on its website, while collectively Topshop and ASOS have hundreds of pieces to choose from within this trend.
4. Bomber jackets
I have already purchased my first bomber jacket for SS16, an oriental inspired ASOS number, and I have a few more still on my wish list.
Just about every store on the high street has a collection of bomber jackets to choose from, and while I'm loving the bright and slightly eccentric styles, the khaki ones also look great.
5. Exposure
Cut-outs are also key for spring/summer 2016. If you're looking for the perfect holiday look to show off your summer glow then exposure is perfect - whether it be to show off your shoulders, stomach waist, or even your knees.
The likes of Balenciaga, Peter Pilotto, Barbara Casasola, Christopher Kane, Prabal Gurung, and Givenchy all have skin-baring collections for SS16, and the high street has definitely followed suit.
Topshop has some beaut pieces, as does ASOS and Zara.
