Doing it without coming over too fancy dress, however, takes an approach to styling that’s a little less Copacabana and a little more chic. Work yours with sleek accessories for a summery yet grown up look. Here are three ways we’ll be working it – scroll through our gallery above for details.

1. Printed Pants: Brilliantly shown by Beyonce here, you can’t go wrong with a tropical print trouser. Pair yours with clashing but simple shaped pumps, a sleek black shirt and some glitzy jewellery for a great day to night look.

2. Totally Tropical Day Dress: Make like Kate Bosworth in a tropical printed day dress for an easy summer look. Pair with tan accessories for a laid back approach to daytime chic.

3. Leopard Love: Love a bit of leopard print a la Miranda Kerr for a full on take on print. Keep the shapes simple and your accessories clean and pared back for a chic approach.

Here. co opting the help of certain trusty outfits can work wonders. Taking in printed shorts and nude coloured dresses, colourful maxis and statement shoes, here are three ways we’ll be working summer in our city this season.

1. Printed Shorts: As seen on Olivia Palermo, the tailored city short is a surefire way to chic and sleek whilst keeping it very summer friendly. Clash your prints for the fashion forward look, right down to your bag and shoes.

3. Maxi Magic: Alessandra Ambrosio’s statement printed maxi is the ideal take on relaxed city chic.

Inspired by three impeccably dressed celebrities, here are three ways we might work it this year.

1. White Lady: As ably demonstrated by Miranda Kerr, sometimes the simplest formula is the most effective. Wearing a white kaftan with simple sandals and a very chic hat (the bigger the better) gives a timeless look that’s romantic in summery in equal measures.

2. Sporty Stripes: For a more active day on the beach, Rosie Huntington Whiteley’s simple stripes n’shorts formula is a tried and tested classic.

3. Colour your Kaftan: As seen on Jessica Alba, summery coloured Kaftans work wonders for a more glam beachfront look. Pair yours with organic jewellery and some metallic sandals for a fabulous beach to cocktails outfit.

We’re talking, of course, of Coachella, the 8 day Palm Springs music extravaganza that is also one big fashion moment. From hippie inspired chic to boho dresses, suede separates to T shirt shifts, the way to go is footloose, fancy free and fabulously dressed (of course.) Click through our gallery above for three ways we’ll be wearing it at Coachella this year.

1. As ably demonstrated by Rosie Huntington Whiteley, shorts don’t need to read sloppy. Take yours printed or even better with a touch of sparkle, pair with a simple crisp white top and ankle boots and you’ll be ticking the too cool boxes without looking like a teenage wannabe. Pictures: Rosie Huntington Whiteley at Coachella, floral shorts by Mulberry, Isabel Marant peasant top and gold bracelets, sequin Suno shorts and suede trimmed white blouse by Helmut Lang all from www.net-a-porter.com. Necklace by CC Skye from www.shopbop.com, Jalouse boots from Ash, and BYT frieda bag available here.

2. Taking your lead from the ever chic Diane Kruger, work an easy T shirt dress to take you from a hot spring day through to a party night. Go for statement numbers – colour and print are the orders of the day here – and pair with simple brown accessories for just enough of that boho twist.

3. Ever the ice maiden, channel Kate Bosworth’s take on minimal festival chic for the on trend route to party dressing this summer. Simple leather and suede separates in a nude palette work brilliantly with boho accessories.
