This is it, folks. Summer is on the horizon. The skies are blue, the bank holiday is here, we've got a gin & tonic in hand, and we've booked our flights. After-work drinks are more frequent, we're walking to the office and we've pinned our festival tickets to the fridge. We'd say we have summer well and truly tied up this year.
You'll have noticed some key trends come out of SS17: gingham , statement sleeves , fuchsia and red, blazers, maximalist shoes ... and yet when the weather changes so abruptly, we're often unsure how to style our key pieces. When in doubt? Instagram. A quick scroll through our feeds for sartorial inspiration and we're ready to hit the park – best mule first – with friends, a bottle of prosecco and some speakers.
Click through to see how your favourite turned-out women are tackling spring dressing, from light layering to rainbow brights.
DJ and TV presenter Flex Mami wears head-to-toe ASOS and gives a good lesson in gingham, off-the-shoulder dressing, and fuchsia.
Julia Dalia schools us on layering here in a gingham Edited top and cute Ray-Bans.
Chelsea March goes no-holds-barred with colour blocking. Reach for rainbow knits this spring.
We're hooked on Israeli designer Dodo Bar Or, and Sofie Valkiers shows just why. Tassels, embroidery, ruffles: this is the ultimate holiday dress.
Lyn Slater, aka Accidental Icon, demonstrates how silver accents break up an all-white spring look.
Elif's '90s Kurt Cobain sunnies and Topshop tea dress makes the ideal throw-it-on-and-go city break look.
Lisa Folawiyo teams her Gucci hoodie with a slip dress, solving our transitional weather dilemmas.
Who said summer needed to be all about colour? Anna Borisovna's utility dress from Mango reps those who like to keep it black.
Linn Eklund's burnt orange mac shows that even when the weather hasn't made up its mind, you can still bring the sunshine.
Tamu McPherson shows us how to clash prints: stripes, leopard, and terrazzo -style. All topped off with some yellow oval sunnies (take note: you'll be wearing these all summer long).
Megan Ellaby or Harry Styles? Megan's Sister Jane two-piece and 2NDDAY ruffled blouse steer clear of Victoriana territory with the addition of oval sunnies.
Dress down masculine tailoring with ice-white joggers, like Freja Wewer.
Micaéla Verrelien's EAUSEENON trousers are a nice move on for SS17's ruffle trend.
If Balenciaga is out of your budget, wear some colourful tights with barely-there heels instead. Team with an asymmetric floral dress (like Emili Sindlev's Topshop number) and your spring look will be fashion-certified.
Invest in a khaki or camo jacket this spring, and pair with zesty colours like Natalie's sunset orange. We're wearing ours with fuchsia ankle boots.
Pink hues should feature heavily in your spring wardrobe. We'll be pairing our denim with a white slogan T and box-fresh trainers like ASOS Insider Kicki.
Afraid of double denim? Mix shades and washes to break your outfit up, and team with attention-stealing mules à la Viola Bergstrom.
Lotta-Liina Mikael's Levi's short dungarees are androgynous chic paired with her baker boy hat and white shirt, proving summer doesn't have to mean feminine.
Anaa Saber's PAMPLEMOUSSE Calypop tunic is a fresh take on gingham – we love the off-the-shoulder sheer ruffles, too.
Do you need further encouragement to don a bold two-piece this spring? Thought not. Marie Jedig wears Balenciaga's punchy floral set.
Lindsey Holland nails simple Cali style in this chevron Warehouse crop top.
Freddie Harrel's ASOS denim jumpsuit and kiss bag just needs a lick of lipstick and a contrast backdrop.
Reese Blutstein's mustard Pixi Market trousers are the perfect alternative to summer dress overload.
Gabi Fresh's head-to-toe stripes from Elvi are easy-breezy spring wear.
ASOS Insider Lotte is a lady in red (and ruffles and bows).
