How To Style The Two Most Popular Pieces on The High Street for A Cute Summer Outfit…

Combining the best of the high street for the best summer outfit…

Every season, there are some high street pieces that start to blow up on our Instagrams and this season it’s all about this beautiful summer blouse from Zara and the perfect button down maxi skirt from Topshop. The great thing about these two pieces is that not only are they both well under £100, they can be styled together! I wanted to share with you how I styled the two most popular high street pieces for the season, into one very chic summer outfit.

This white Zara top is completely on trend for this summer with its puffy sleeves and shell button details. Since a top like this is quite voluminous on the top half of your body, you want something a bit straighter cut for the bottom. Enter the cutest maxi skirt ever! I love the mustard stripes on this maxi and the asymmetrical hem! This striped skirt is so popular that Topshop has actually made a few colour variations of it, and a super similar version has popped up on ASOS too. Is this the skirt style of the summer? I think so!

The key to really making a high street outfit yours is accessories. I wanted to add some definition to my waist so I added in this vintage gold chain belt This is a great way to wear a maxi skirt without looking too short, especially if you are petite like me. I also wanted to make this look a little more chic and elegant so I opted for my vintage Chanel slingback heels and these beautiful earrings that I found at Fenwicks in London. I love how the colours matched together so perfectly!

What do you think of this high street look? Would you wear it?

The High Low Edit: Outfit #2

I bought these Topshop trousers a few months ago and they are one of my favourite pairs because they can be dressed up or dressed down. I was wearing them in this office inspired outfit here, and I’m wearing them for today’s Instagram outfit feature. They are a high street piece that look so much more luxe than they are. If these are not available in your size, I have linked to a similar pair from Topshop that are also super chic.

I paired the trousers with an old silky polo from Pinko. I love that it’s a crop top and I’ve tried to find a similar version for you below.

Style Tip: Pair crop tops with high waisted trousers. It looks more elegant as you still show enough skin to elongate your silhouette without looking too out there!

The look is complete with my Louis Vuitton handbag and my Valentino sandals. I picked up these sandals a few years ago and I wear them on repeat when summer arrives! I found a similar pair on ASOS as well if you want to recreate this look!

The High Low Edit: Outfit #1

One of my goals with The Silk Sneaker is to constantly give you guys style inspiration whether that be through styling advice, tips or tricks. One of the key aspects of my style is mixing the best of luxury fashion and the best of the high street to create fashionable and trendy outfits that you can wear on a day to day basis too. That’s why I’m replacing Friday Favourites with a brand new seris called “The High Low Edit”

You can expect a quick dose of inspiration every Friday, where I break down how I created an outfit that I wore previously during the week. Where I got each piece from, why these pieces are worth it and some similar items. All that in just a quick glance! I hope you enjoy this new series and if you do recreate this outfit, remember to tag me on Instagram and #TheSilkSneakerEdit so I can see it too!

I love this Helmut lang hoodie because it works season after season as a great off duty piece. It’s very relaxed and can be styled with virtually anything. This is a great investment piece because the fit is also very flattering!

In terms of the high street finds; This Zara skirt is a winner because of the fabulous button details. The khaki colour means it will last you for more than just one season as well. I’ve had this ASOS waist belt for ages now and it never fails me. It’s one of those high street pieces that looks so much more luxe than it is. Those are the kinds of high street pieces you want to invest in!
