Our Fabulous fashion team show you how you can make a statement with matching prints this summer
Making bold statements in checks and polka dots, there's no better time than summer to have fun with your fashion
OUR Fabulous women are stepping into summer playing the matching game in head-to-toe prints.
We've put together a collection of the coolest co-ords on the High Street that are perfect to suit every woman this summer season.
Lynne Mckenna, 38, Fashion Editor
"It’s time I embraced print power, and this set is a great introduction to a style I’ve always shied away from. It’s simple yet eye-catching, and it works in lots of different settings. Here I’m ready for a girls’ night out, but with some trainers and a T-shirt I’d feel relaxed and still on trend.";
Nana Acheampong, 32, Shopping Editor & Celebrity Stylist
"Polka dots are a classic, no matter what the season. I love these burnt-orange shades together, and the wide-leg trousers are really flattering – they’ll also look great with a plain white vest or crop top when I’m on holiday."
Tracey Lea Sayer, 46, Fashion Director
"A co-ord takes all the pressure out of getting it right – just pop one on and you look instantly put together. This giraffe-print two-piece is a cool alternative to a dress for a summer occasion, or you could wear it to work with flats. Top tip: if you’re tall like me, you can carry off an oversized print head to toe."
Daisy Jordan, 27, Fashion Assistant
"I’m head-over-heels in love with checks this season (I’ve never been an animal-print kinda girl). This Clueless-inspired combo suits my style perfectly, plus it’s so versatile: throw the blazer on over a T-shirt and jeans for a day in the office, then slip on the skirt for a night on the town."
