We want ALL of the summer 2018

Okay, we left everything that had polka dots, long midi or heels with brilli-brilli … But, let's be practical, we don't need quantity but quality . In addition to having the criteria to take the best, we could use a list of needs and gaps in the closet that we urgently need to cover. Take a look at our shopping and find out what you need before jumping into discounts as if there were no tomorrow.

A pleated skirt

Because it is one of the most beautiful skirts of the season, the pleated skirt is already a basic to count on for all kinds of occasions.

Bershka skirt, € 25.99

A midi dress

The length of the season is this and, therefore, we are not going to be without such a dress (especially if it is mustard color). Also bet on dresses that fit at the waist with ties like this one, as it will stylize your figure much more when they are not so short.

Pull & Bear dress, € 15.99

Jute espadrilles

How can we not want to have several pairs of summer shoes? Espadrilles and wedges come this year in designs as original as these, which are going to be difficult to resist when prices drop.

Uterqüe espadrilles, € 79

A crop top

There is no summer without crop tops , so show off your belly with one of these. If you are not convinced by the effect, you can wear it with a high- waisted shorts or skirt or wear it when you go to the beach, over your bikini.

Topshop top, € 40

A pair of mules

Have you still not dared with the star shoes of the moment? They have been with us for two seasons and they do not stop becoming popular. We love it with combinations of color and patterns as original as these.

A little black dress

Bikini, bikini and more bikini

Because we are in the time to wear them and because they are never enough, get that bikini that seemed so expensive at the beginning of the season and that is about to reduce its price. Tip: Go for seasonal patterns such as gingham checks or polka dots.

Topshop bikini, € 46

Timeless jewels

How about those earrings for which you died months ago and that, now, are about to reduce their price? This year, rhinestones are still a strong trend, especially in light and relaxed tones.

Original shoulder bags

In order not to always have the classic bag without grace, we better bet on fun and colorful options like this one. Very according to the summer and capable of giving life and emotion to whatever you wear.

A bohemian dress

The long dresses with motifs boho are our weakness every summer. We imagine ourselves with them to enjoy those boardwalks at night, for parties and barbecues with friends and even for some important event adding a pair of heels.

Stylish swimsuits

Since you are going to get another swimsuit, do it with discretion. Do you need me to style you a bit? Nothing like a diagonal flounce swimsuit . The effect is as flattering as it is surprising (promised). Learn to choose a swimsuit well according to the shape of your body.

Women 'Secret swimsuit, € 35.99

A mini dress

A short and cool dress is always necessary to accompany us everywhere. This summer, we will bet on two elements of great importance: ruffles and polka dots. Make sure your new dress meets one or both of these characteristics, and you will not fail.

Cocoa dress, € 75

Viral sandals

And if the sandals that have driven Instagram crazy about how beautiful they are are still in store, we are not going to miss the opportunity to get them, right? In addition, they seem to be the most comfortable, which is a plus .

Mango sandals, € 49.99

The whim of the season

Our advice is that you like signature accessories but, like us, you usually can't afford it, crawl multi-brand websites like My Theresa or Net-à-porter, which already have some of the most attractive discounts. Also, investing in a bag from a luxury firm is always a very good idea.

Chloé 'Kris Large' bag, previously € 425 and now € 255

Since we saw that the date for 2018 was SO close, we have not stopped counting the hours. Although some brands have already begun to offer us discounts of the sea of succulent, we are still waiting for the best-sellers of the season to lower it as well. In the meantime, we will be developing a realistic wish list so that the big day does not go away (too much).
