From shirts to sneakers and everything in between, this is what the Stylist fashion team is adding to its basket this week.

When it comes to knowing what to buy and when to buy it, few are better advisers than a team whose very job it is to know what’s hot and where to get it from.

For the time-poor among us, there just aren’t enough hours in the day to scour the virtual shelves for the best new-in items or most in-demand pieces of the season. Whether it’s a showstopping frock for a summer wedding or an upgraded pair of trainers, we are always in need of a recommendation from the style experts we know and trust.

Which is precisely why Stylist’s fashion team has compiled a go-to list of everything we’re adding to our baskets for the sunny season.

From statement jewellery that will instantly elevate any outfit to summer dresses that require minimal styling, these are the pieces that Team Stylist is adding to its basket this month.

  • Geox Bleyze Woman

    Geox Bleyze Woman

    Geox might be best known for its breathable trainers, but I raise you a pair of its equally breathable loafers. I’ve been wearing mine with fitted preppy minidresses and my hair neat and Blair Waldorf-esque.

  • Calzedonia Crochet Skirt

    Calzedonia Crochet Skirt

    It’s time for The Big Melt, which means one thing and one thing only: crochet. I can’t wait to whip this mini out on the beach – or, perhaps more likely, by the local lido – with a white tank top and a chunky pair of sandals.

  • Vuori Volley Dress

    Vuori Volley Dress

    OK, I may not be winning in straight sets in my tennis games, but I will be in the style stakes when I pair this crisp dress with a pair of XXL shades and a basket bag for sunny day strolls.

  • Feisedy Vintage Square Cat Eye Sunglasses

    FEISEDY Vintage Square Cat Eye Sunglasses

    It seems like I have more sunglasses than I do of anything else at this point, but I’ve been lacking a pair of forever black frames for a while now. I’m grateful, then, to Feisedy, which has made the cat eye-esque sunnies of dreams, so I can finally complete my collection.

  • Vuori Daily Bra

    Vuori Daily Bra

    It might be summer and time to slob out on the lounger, but I am still determined to keep up some level of fitness. Loving the new ultraviolet colourway from cult US brand Vuori – it’s definitely going in the packing case.

  • Reformation Belgium Linen Dress

    Reformation Belgium Linen Dress

    This dress from Reformation is actual perfection. The cut is kind to my fuller figure, hitting me in all the right places, plus the thigh slash gives great heat relief. I’m going to get one in every colour.

  • Daphine Kaia Earrings

    Daphine Kaia Earrings

    It’s great to add a single pair of earrings to the packing list. I’m going with these Kaia earrings from Daphine. They will elevate the humblest of sarongs in time for the evening sundowner.
