Thou shalt try jumpsuits, commit to kimonos and dress only in tie-dye – these are our Spring Style Commandments. OK, not that last one…

We’ve got the updated must-haves and reworked classics to keep you looking fab through to summer…

1 THOU SHALT TRY A JUMPSUIT

Don’t be afraid of jumpsuits – they’re really comfy and flattering, as they skim your shape. This monochrome number also nods to the gingham trend, which is huge right now. Jumpsuit, Lost Ink, £55; Shoes, Dune, £65; Bag, M&S, £15

2 THOU SHALT EMBRACE STATEMENT SLEEVES

They add oomph to any outfit, so it’s time to get serious about sleeves. From tiered to fluted and oversized, there’s a style out there to suit you. Don’t feel brave enough for the OTT vibes? Stick to a flared sleeve for a more subtle look. Top, Autograph by M&S, £39.50; Jeans, Topshop, £59

3 THOU SHALT UP THY BAG GAME

Prints are huge news, and what better way to tap into the trend than with a bold bag? The crossbody is not only practical, but the style to invest in now. Palm prints will see you right through to summer – perfect for holidays or festival dressing. Dress, George @ Asda, £14; Bag, Oasis, £25

4 THOU SHALT REJOICE IN THE RETURN OF THE MAC

Yes, it’s back! The classic style staple is on every fashionista’s shopping list for S/S17, but this time there’s a twist. Forget plain macs, we’re talking embellishments and embroidery. Kick your basic coat to the curb. Mac, Zara, £99.99; Jeans, V by Very, £30; Shoes, Dune, £85

5 THOU SHALT COMMIT TO A KIMONO

6 THOU SHALT SWAP THY TRAINERS FOR SLIDES
