Summer isn't all shorts and sandals, it can also be a time for formal occasions and those days when you just feel like making an effort. Putting on a suit, after a break, can be, almost, liberating. It's that old feeling of a uniform that runs throughout British menswear and that comfort in feeling 'dressed'. A checked suit adds more interest, a waistcoat adds more formality and a black vinyl raincoat adds, well, it just ADDS!

We all love a good festival, it's as British as bunting and warm cider. So, when it's time to get those chicken legs out, go bold and put bright colour with bright colour. (Oh, and something waterproof, we all know how the weather works!). It's also practical, because it's good to stand out from the crowd, just for your friends' benefit. Just add some Gallagher swagger! Credits - Jacket & Shorts - K Way, Socks - Topman, T-Shirt - Jaeger, Shoes - Base London, Backpack - Eastpak

Have you met Gym?! No, me neither! As we slide into summer look gym ready in classic sportswear items. Whether lounging around or actually doing something, heaven forbid, team with coloured lenses and a fun baseball cap for a cool geeky look.

Our love of the 80s continues. From the music to the films to the fashion, it’s the decade that keeps on giving. The big trend, fashion wise, is 80s sportswear and this is the look you should be following. Go for larger fits, especially in coats and jackets - I’m wearing a large here - with strong, contrasting primary colours. This jacket by Tommy Hilfiger is from House of Fraser and perfectly illustrates the new look while heavily referencing its vintage archive. Team with dad jeans, branded socks and retro trainers. Don’t forget the gold chain or necklace for that…

Your shirt should be like fashion, this season - one minute you're in, and one minute you're out. Or, you could just compromise, like seen on the Marni catwalk, and wear it half-in and half-out. It's like messy business attire. The walk of shame, the morning-from-the-night-before chic. Try it.
