Military Look Jackets

There were strong themes within the ‘youth’ trends of the military look, the country look, the collegiate look and the glittery sequin look.

Themes that are set to continue are the maxi dress, leggings and check shirts – so no need to throw those away if they are lurking in your wardrobes! Yet!

If you are looking for a few key items to stock up on as you look in the shops are –

• A hacking jacket/tweed jacket
• Printed T-shirts – photo prints, digital prints etc.
• Knitwear with animals
• Chinos
• A sequin top for dressing up!
• The basic staple of a pair of jeans is still required – low, large rear pockets help shape bottoms and elongate legs

Layered Look In Linen

A fantastic trend that we also spotted was a linen layered look. This was especially apparent in the continental European suppliers of fashion and of course caught our eye as it particularly suits women in 16 plus sizes – stylish, comfortable and very wearable.

Checked Shirts and Hoodies with Embelishments for Men

For guys the great casual look of jeans, t-shirt and checked shirt over the top is still ‘in’. There are some great styles in hooded tops – not always the traditional ‘hoodie’ look but also some new styles with buttons and epaulettes to add more shape and interest.

As for footwear the main word for both men and women is – boots! Ankle boots, brogue styles shoes and boots which is great because they go with just about anything!

Happy shopping! If you want more advice please contact us.

Freya Eclipse Swimskirt

Research conducted by leading department store Debenhams has shown that holidaymakers staying in the UK wear less-revealing swimwear than those who travel abroad.

Although 91 per cent of British consumers surveyed said they would always wear a bikini abroad there has been a surge in less-revealing swimwear options such as skirted swimsuits among women of all ages with an increase in sales of 112 per cent year-on-year compared to bikinis and other skimpy styles.

Harwayes too is finding that skirted styles are outselling all the other options, with the new freya swimskirt flying out. (http://www.harwayeslingerie.com/product.asp?pid=560) This swimskirt can equally be worn over a bikini or swimsuit, and is available in black or chocolate to match the Fantasie Bahamas Swimsuit, illustrated below.

Fantasie Bahamas Swimsuit

The Fantasie Bahamas swimsuit is perfect for those seeking a little extra cover on British beaches! It features pull tie sides which can be ruched up or pulled down as the mood (and weather) suits, it has an in built bra structure and flattering v-neckline. It also comes up high enough at the sides and back not to be considered skimpy or revealing.
