In summers, you often tend to pick the calm and lighter shades of white, yellow, oranges, pinks and hints of red here and there.

Here are some of the accessory trends that are popular:

• High Heels: Classy and dazzling high heel pumps or sandals are going to rule the season. Don’t forget to get your feet in a fabulous condition as you are going to wear bright colored strappy heels. Make sure that your overall look is not too loud and decked up otherwise you will end up looking like a festooned Christmas tree.

Rendezvous With Street Style

If we’re talking Street Style, you know we’re talking of the eccentric, the quirky and the kind of style that makes a statement. If it’s been a while since you caught up on the latest trends and if you are willing to use some tips, you are at the right place. Each fine detail either makes or mars your look. Point worth keeping in mind is that the fashion circles always  give a thumbs up to clashing prints which you may have already got in your wardrobe. Experiment, mix and match what you own and play with contrasts. Complementing extreme shades is something you should keep in mind.

There is a wide spectrum of vibrant string of clothes ranging from apple green to royal purple or fluoro orange to sunshine yellow that you can choose. Structured dresses and wild graphic prints and patterns are in vogue. The focus is on prints and colours of clothes with a fashion-forward edge. For your denims, sport shades of red, orange, blue, purple and other pastels. High waists, skinny jeans and straight cuts are seen on the runways.

The outfit is incomplete without a relevant hairstyle which must go hand in hand. Braided updos are much in fashion. On the red carpet too, plenty of Boho braids have been dominant lately. Expect to see more of this in the coming days. The subtle addition of a braid can add a flirtatious appeal and transform a plain daytime look into an updo for a night out. Braided buns are another style to flaunt.  

As for the accessories, belt bag is a nice idea. Stick to small and go for squares in terms of shape. Opt for flats instead of the big ones. A skinny belt in blue or pink would pep up your look greatly. For the right footwear, go for the feminine styles like wedges, high heels, ballet flats, and ankle boots as these make the Street trend complete.
