Stacey Ross explores the cheap guide to high fashion this summer!

The likes of Channel, Gucci and Prada are all familiar sounds to a devoted shopper but lets be honest your endless love affair with fashion is an expensive fix. But here’s the good news, you don’t have to spend a fortune to radiate chic, sophisticated elegance this summer!

We have a few simple and affordable style tips that will have you looking like you’ve just graced the cover of Vogue all summer long. So, before you begin packing for that sizzling hot summer getaway - READ ON!

When travelling most people want to pack light, especially if they are moving around a lot, so remember not to over do it and follow our simple tips on how to be a chic-looking traveller!

LESS IS MORE

The key is packing pieces that work for both day and night. Work your outfit by dressing up simple pieces with bold accessories. You can achieve a fabulous sense of style at an affordable cost by being creative and reinventing last year’s look with a few stylish and affordable accessories. There is a whole range of different style options available this season that allow you to work with the wardrobe you already have.

SHOES

You might not be able to afford those manolos, but it’s still no excuse for ‘fugly’ shoes. Which leads us to the number one rule: No trainers or white sneakers should be worn under any circumstance. This is a serious fashion faux pas! Instead opt for black ballet flats.

BURST OF COLOUR

It’s time to inject some colour into your closets ladies, because summer is here! Get ready to rock out in an explosion of colour and make sure you use vibrant colourful pieces for summer to lighten the mood. It’s not just bright shoes or a bag! Coloured jeans are a big hit so be brave and remember to inject some individual style to your outfit. Think cadillac pink, deep purple, brilliant yellow, royal blue, emerald green, or any other colour that takes your fancy. If you’re feeling really fierce clash the top and bottom of your outfit!

SCARVES

Living out of a suitcase on holiday doesn’t mean you should look ‘fugly’ or scream ‘tourist’! Scarves are a simple and easy solution that will jazz up the most basic tops – it’s the number one accessory!

MINIMAL MAKE –UP

We encourage you to go forth and be the beauty goddess that you are - but try a more classic and natural look!

DRESS TO IMPRESS

It’s important to make an effort!  If everyone else does and it will only leave you feeling frumpy if you don’t, so put your best foot forward.

Follow these easy tips to unleashing your inner fashionista and get the celebrity look for less! You don’t have to be draped in Versace, Gucci or Vera Wang to ooze style. Not only will you look fab for your holidays, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing that you’re not drowning in debt.
