With summer just around the corner, we're scanning the high street for some new pieces to give our wardrobes a little refresh.
In an effort to find out what we should be adding to our wardrobes to see us through the summer, we asked our fashion team for their summer wardrobe must-haves.
From shirt dresses to a pair of white trainers, here are the pieces our experts can't go without in the summer months...

BUY NOW Sezane Will Jacket, £100
Fashion Editor Gabriella Minchella's ultimate summer must-have is a denim jacket.
"I love the ease of a denim jacket, it’s throw on nature and timeless style summer after summer. I always look forward to getting it out of my wardrobe as I know it’s the start of summer," she said.
She added: "Right now, I love the white Will Jacket from Sezane. It's great worn with jeans or over a floral dress as it has a slightly more tailored edge."

Fashion Editor Jo Atkinson will be updating her wardrobe with a crisp-white, statement cotton top this season.

BUY NOW Chinti and Parker Yellow Floral Silk Shirt Dress, £395
Our Editor-in-Chief Gabby Huddart can't go without a good midi dress to wear to events during the summer.
She said: "I always need a good dress for my annual family trip to Glyndebourne opera and, if I’m lucky Wimbledon tennis - but also one that I can put on when we go out to dinner on holiday and feel a little bit glamorous in."
She added: "My pick this year is this lovely yellow floral dress from Chinti and Parker – I’ve already bought it and it’s hanging in my wardrobe waiting for the sun to shine!"

M&S Collection Floral Print Fit & Flare Midi Dress
BUY NOW Mango Tie-Dye Shirt Dress, £49.99
For Executive Fashion Director Fiona Collins, her summer must-have is a shirt dress.
"I look for a new shirt dress to update my summer wardrobe every year. It’s the most versatile dress shape for the season, smart enough for work, great with heels and (maybe not so buttoned up) for after work drinks, but also relaxed enough for summer travels," she said.
"White cotton is a favourite but this season I am going for colour with a beautiful tie dye dress at Mango," she revealed.
"It's elegant but relaxed, and as fitted as you want it to be with the tie waist detail."

M&S Collection Pure Cotton Midi Shirt Dress
BUY NOW Marks & Spencer Floral Print Slip Midi Skirt, £35
For me, a midi skirt is a summer wardrobe must-have. They go with everything from t-shirts to cami tops and suit all occasions, whether it's a day at the office or after-work drinks.
This summer I'll be picking up this stylish midi skirt from Marks & Spencer. Featuring a pretty floral print and in a chic slip style, I'll be pairing it with trainers or sandals during the day and heels for an evening out.

She added: "Veja’s high-end styles are a huge hit right now (even Meghan Markle is a fan) but the high street is bursting with chic iterations, too. Marks & Spencer’s Leather Lace-up Trainers with black detailing will go with everything in your wardrobe."
