I LIVE IN PARIS AND HAVE ELEGANT TASTE—HERE'S EVERYTHING ON MY SUMMER WISH LIST

I adore the sleeveless waistcoat trend of 2023, however, my style is better suited to a longer, slightly fluted sleeve. I was thrilled to see this buttoned co-ord ensemble land on Reformation. It offers a uniform and elegant alternative to a summer dress.

A clever structure, owing to it's fluted sleeve with a boxy, longline silhouette. Playing with Scandinavian elements, Aeron, create pieces with functionality and fashion at the forefront.

The Monsoon X India Edit collaboration combines noughties silhouettes with free-flowing, natural materials and tones from neutrals to moss green and burgundy. It encapsulated a European summer and is one of my favourite brand collaborations I've seen to date.

As a Fashion Editor, having favourite brands is quite the statement, but Faithfull comes up trumps, especially during the summer. This year, the brand has gained traction on the UK market, helped by its residency in Net A Porter and, more recently, Harvey Nichols. Its S/S 2025 collection features modern florals, jaunty stripes and my new favourite colour, this powdery yellow.

Mark my words, a sleeveless A-line white mini dress will see you through every eventuality, every summer. Before investing in a white mini, I aired on the side of a midi or maxi length enthusiast, and while I'm still firmly in that camp, there's something so relaxed and easy-to-wear, yet polished about this look. My style trick—hair up in a tortoiseshell claw clip, slip-on mules and an oversized handbag. Et voila!

Massimo Dutti is my number one high street retailer. Bridging the gap between entry-level designer and fast fashion, it hones in on clean lines and contemporary styles. My colour of SS25 is this exact yellow hue. The timeless halter neck and close-cut silhouette will see you through many summers to come.

Over the past few months, I've been gathering my thoughts about capri pants or pedal pusher trend. The latter is what I referred to my ill-fitting school trousers of the early 2000s as, but as fashion does, faux pas come back around to challenge our preconceptions. Now, 30 years on, I've deduced that I quite like the idea of a purposely shrunken trouser, especially when styled with intention. I always seek out plastic-free styles, which proved challenging for this particular item, but Albaray came to the rescue with their slack pedal pushers. My style tip — wear them with a tank, loose-fit poplin shirt and heeled flip flops (like the ones below).

Balloon leg fits aren't solely reserved for denim. The fit looks equally chic on a tailored trouser, and this month, Mango have stepped up with its take, which looks every bit as suave as a designer iteration. It's also worth noting that I very seldom find trousers comprising natural fabrications on the high street, but this here, is an impressive piece.

Baukjen is coined as one of the most eco-conscious brands on the market and scored in the top 5% of 4000 certified B Corp brands. As if that wasn't enough to entice you, its latest collection has introduced both fashion-forward and timeless styles into the mix. My pick of the bunch is the Saffy puffball skirt. While you may think of an occasion at first glance, my favourite way of wearing it is with a bandeau top tucked into the waistband and a skinny belt atop. For footwear, I'd opt for heeled sandals.

You know it's a good day for fashion when two renowned brands collaborate, and I have my eyes on the Jimmy Fairly X Reformation collection for SS25. Comprising a 24-piece sunglasses collection featuring an array of shapes (from cat eye to shrunken noughties style frames), there's something to suit all face shapes. Jimmy Fairly is certainly shaping up to be a forerunning eyewear brand, and with influence from Reformation, it's a powerhouse collection.

Since its inception in 1964, founder Azzedine Alaïa has honed in on a femininity through shapely designs. Since the brand's creation of the Japanese-inspired Fishnet ballet flats back in 2022, it's been on the tip of the tongue of fashion specialists. Its arsenal now includes a smorgasbord of contemporary delights, including the newly launched Le Click, which debuted on the Winter Spring '25 runway. The elongated, slightly concave bag bears elements of a French-style baguette and is awash with a cocoa hue, which has cemented itself as a coveted colourway.

Owing to my fondness for jewellery, I could quite easily become a jewellery editor and, more specifically, earrings. Come rain or shine, casual or occasion, you'll spot me in a pair of overstated earrings. It's become part of my uniform, and whilst I thought I'd ticked every box, there's space in my collection for a contorted pair like this. The asymmetrical shaping lends it an organic, nonchalant look that will complement day-to-day dressing well.

During the summer, nine times out of ten, I'm in heeled flip flops. My old high street pair has seen better days, so I'm looking to invest in an elevated pair to see me through the summers ahead. Due to the continued wear, my toe prints have worn into the footbed of my current pair; therefore, this time, I'm looking for a black leather cushioned sole complete with a thinner heel.

Partnering with local communities across Kenya, Cape Town and LA, Amanu celebrates the artistry of the makers worldwide. Having recently launched a 17-piece collection on Net-A-Porter, these talents are now shared with the luxury retail market, and their premium collection includes hard-wearing leather sandals with gold accents and handbags of the same ilk. Each piece is designed to withstand the test of time and echo the sentiment of human connection.

Each month, I search high and low for premium-looking pieces on the high street, and every year Charles & Keith release a style that catches my eye. Last year, it was the satin square-toe mule and this year, it's the strappy square-toe sandal. I'd style this with tailored trousers, dresses and skirts.

I'm a huge proponent of elevating everyday experiences, so Rollr piqued my interest after seeing it recommended by beauty specialist Rhea. Comprising natural gemstones, from rose quartz to blue dumortierite and a cooling steel cap, you'll now look forward to your daily regimen.

With Who What Wear's Beauty Issue inauguration, I've been inspired to compile a beauty edit of my own, and as a huge fan of Merit products, I'm keen to trial its latest release, The Uniform.

Oozing a free-spirited, sensual aroma and laced with a jasmine hue, Vyrao has fast become my summer scent. Two spritzes on your pulse points will see you through the majority of the day.
