DOABLE TRENDS THIS FASHION SEASON

With the weather heating up and summer just around the corner, now would be the time to start looking into your wardrobe for the next season

The fashion-lovers among us will be keen to discover what’s on-trend for summer 2018/19, but for those less inclined to be fashionable and more inclined to be comfy, there’s good news too.

POOL SLIDES

While this shoe is not new to the fashion scene, this season they are becoming more attractive while keeping the comfort with a half slide, half low mule hybrid.

Even better, Chanel has created a slide with special fastenings so you can hang them off your bag when at the beach — here’s hoping it’s a trend that catches on.

MATCHY MATCHY

Matching pieces isn’t new to the fashion scene, but this year is taking on a more holistic view.

Double bags are coming on the scene, slung low on the hips, and it is essential to match the bags together.

Get some sets and match them with shoes and accessories in tones of the same colour.

RAFFIA

This doesn’t just apply to the sun-safe fashion of hats — camera bags, purses and more are fashionable in raffia this season. Regarding hats, they are most chic with floppy, tattered brims.

BIKE SHORTS

Yes, they’re back again.

But these bike shorts aren’t the neon Spandex of the ’80s — far from it.

Pick a stretch-knit fabric in demure prints and delicate pastel colours.

Match with a cute thin cardi and you’re set!
