This Week's HIGH STREET HITLIST


Summer may only just be here, but the shops are already stocking up on their pre-Autumn collections. If you're fed up of garish prints and louder than life brights, then these beauties are you.

Keep your eyes open for plenty of elegant, stripped-back clothes in ladylike faves - the catwalks were full of dusky pinks and powder blues - and stay one step ahead of the trends.

Of course, we're still well in the summer spirit, so whatever your style, we've rounded up the best of the high street to give you plenty to choose from.

Get shopping…...
