Top trend: asymmetric hems

Call it an asymmetric hem, a dip hem, or even a wonky hem, there's a lot of them about at the moment on dresses, skirts and tops.

Wear it dressed up with blingy strappy sandals like Glee's Naya Rivera, or dressed down with a pair of gladiators.

We choose the best 10 available now.

Brogues (or lace-up flats to most of us) have been around for many many years, but it's only recently that women have started wearing them. They're normally the shoe of choice for a City gent or your grandad.

Wear them with a pair of trousers for a slick masculine look or with a dress as a change from heels. Brogues are a VERY versatile shoe. We choose 10 of the best.

Top trend: sheer fabrics

Now calm down, sheer fabrics doesn't mean showing your bits and bobs to all and sundry. Well, maybe it does to some of you, but it doesn't have to. Sheer means you can be as exposed (or not) as you want. A midriff here, a thigh there or, like Laura Whitmore a sliver of arm.

We choose our favourite 10 sheer fabric items in the shops now.

Top trend: neon

The sun may not be shining, but there's no reason why you shouldn't bring a bit of brightness into the world.

Follow Katy Perry's lead with her (almost) top-to-toe look or just throw in a flash of neon.

Get the look: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

We loved model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's make-up at the Met Ball earlier this week - so here's a quick guide to how to get her look. We can't promise you supermodel status or an A-list boyfriend, but it might be fun trying.

All products are available from Cocktail Cosmetics who specialise in organic and natural make-up.

Top trend: scarf print

Fashion is quite schizophrenic at the moment - on the one hand we have minimalist colour blocks, on the other we have crazy prints all over the place. Scarf prints are particularly big at the moment: think dresses made from your nan's scarf, think gold chains and think Versace and Pucci as inspiration. Jessie J loves a bold print so it's no surprise to see her in a scarf print two-piece.

We choose our favourites on the high street and online now.

Top trend: Wellies

Rain, rain and yet more rain. If you're as fed up of it as us, fight back with a cool pair of wellie boots. Plus they'll be useful for the British festival season!

Top trend: concertina pleats

Concertina pleats are a hot new trend for this spring/summer. They're cute and shamelessly girly, and as Katy Perry shows in this pic, can create an amazing look with a print.

We've chosen 10 of our favourites in the shops now.

Top trend: bralets

Is it a big bra? Is it a cropped top? Who knows, but whatever it is you'll be seeing loads of them in the shops right now. They're fabulously versatile and can be worn with jeans and a leather jacket or dressed up like Selena Gomez, or you can even wear with a matching skirt like Jessica Wright and Pixie Lott.
