As we’re approaching Spring and Summer, you might be thinking of ways to update your wardrobe and what pieces to buy first. A great way to get ready for Spring and Summer is to buy some accessories that can carry you right through from those early Spring mornings to the end of Summer. With the British weather being its usual unpredictable self, you might even reach for these things a little earlier than expected!
Sunglasses
Useful all year round, not just Spring and Summer however there are usually more options available in Spring. So it’s a good time to invest in a new pair. There are so many styles available, taking the time to find a pair that suit you, so you feel comfortable in them is key. If you require prescription glasses, then take some time to investigate getting prescription sunglasses. They are handy for switching it up in Summer. There are plenty of offers on from designers to high street to there’s something to suit everyone’s style and budget.
Swimwear
This is something you should think about buying early on as all the best styles and pieces tend to sell out fast. Plus you don’t want to be left in that dreaded scenario where it’s a week before you leave, and you can’t find anything you feel good in. There are some beautiful printed swimsuits on offer for the upcoming seasons. So why not choose something eye-catching to mix things up! Alternatively, if prints aren’t your thing there are some great mix and max pieces available, so you can get creative with your bikini options too.
Top it off with a hat
It will soon be time to leave the winter hats behind and embrace something a little more suitable for Summer. It can take a little time to find the style to suit you. But it’s important to have one throughout the Summer months, so time well spent. Not only are hats important for protecting us against the sun, they can really add that something extra to an outfit and great for hiding those days your hair doesn’t want to be tamed! You don’t need to spend a lot of money here, there are some fab options on the high street that can work well.
The Summer Bag
Last year saw the trend of the straw bag and it doesn’t look like that’s going to change this year. Already, there are plenty straw bags making their way into the shops. A good way to invest in this trend is to look out for a cross body style. It is perfect for Summer getaways or city escapes as you can throw them on and go. If you’re considering investing in this trend, there’s no need to spend too much money. There are so many great budget options available. With plenty of different styles and colours available, you can play around with adding colour with your Summer bag to make your outfit pop and stand out.

Sunglasses – definitely! As soon as those rays are out I’m am all over the sunnies!
Yes me too!
Great post! The right accessories can change up your look so many different wats.
Yes they can. Thank you.
I’m ready with my swimwear for a change – but I keep losing my sunglasses to the boys’ dressing up box! I need new ones!
Oh no! I hope you get one in time.
Sunglasses are my all year round essential! I can’t handle brightness very well at all and they are often perched on my head most days “in case”
Yea me too. I wear contact lenses so I always have to have a pair of sunglasses with me.
Sunglasses are a must. Pastel or printed frames would be wonderful to sport during spring time.
They are a must for sure.
Love me some sunglasses! You can’t go wrong with a good beach hat either.
You can’t go wrong for sure.
No. I haven’t done any shopping yet for myself but have bought a few for my daughter. I think I’m still stuck with winter clothing… thick jumpers and all. Maybe it’s because the weather hasn’t really felt spring like? Hopefully temps will rise soon!
Yea they are rising as I type so good.
Ooh I love a good summer bag! I love an oversized bag I can throw everything in!
Me too Laura.
Accessories are BAE!

Cannot lose with the latest on trend sunglasses – always my first purchase when the seasons change.

I do love a good pair of sunglasses as you know and swimsuits are a great way to welcome the return of spring too x
I agree Ana x
We’re glad we’re getting another year out of our straw bags! Great stuff and totally agree about finding the best swimsuits x
Thanking you x
I actually haven’t had a chance to even thing about spring essentials to purchase but I am loving pastel colours of late. I do need a hat though
Go for it!
My bags have all become so worn and I definitely need new ones. Now the boys are getting older, I can’t justify a trucks and digger backpack for much longer!
Grab some new ones Emma.
I desperately need to buy new sunglasses this year, as mine are covered with scratches 😉 I love the straw bags trend, and I am so happy that they are in this spring and summer, too!
Go for it!
I haven’t even thought about spring yet but I do wear sunglasses all year round
Yea me too because of my contact lenses.
