Going up

Discussing your ‘Spirit EmojiYeah, it’s a thing. Correct answer: the kissy-smiley face.

Swimming pool blue nails New summer favourite. Chanel’s Le Vernis in Méditerranée is the best.

Espadrille one-upmanship Coming to a beach bar near you this summer. Can you identify a Zabattigli or a Vidorreta at 20 paces?

Plastic cups For drinking prosecco in the park when the sun is out, obvs, and for storing your felt-tip pens, as in the Miu Miu campaign.

Lederhosen As endorsed by Hudson Kroenig, Karl Lagerfeld’s godson.

Peppermint Patty The Peanuts character is finally getting her fashion moment, courtesy of Peter Jensen. Tomboys rejoice.

Going down

Cropped trousers and Birkenstocks The look, in theory: dynamic urban elegance. In reality: walking holiday.

Elderflowery drinks We’re calling time on elderflower cordial this summer. Ginger beer has a pleasingly Famous Five tuckbox thing going on.

High heels for babies A thing, apparently, to which we say absolutely not.

Suede baldness The jackets we so loved two months ago have gone a bit patchy.

Veronica Lake hair Enough now, A-listers. Let’s move on from the old Hollywood waves.

The Olsen twins Younger sister Elizabeth is our new style crush. Just fashion enough.
