In our ongoing series on trends, we look at the young and fun alternative to pastels - bubblegum colours. Thanks to stars like Nikki Minaj and Katy Perry, Japanese modern culture and the popular Vivienne Westwood Anglomania for Melissa shoes, bubblegum colours have never been more popular - and the more cartoon-like the better. The jelly material more commonly remembered for those beach shoes worn in the 90s is now better known for this particular trend.

What better way to get Katy Perry’s look than to wear the shoes she’s been seen in? For a more subtle take on the look, go for something a little more grown up, but still have that pop of colour that you’re after. Add to this pretty details which match your outfit and you're set.

Previously, we spoke about the girliest trend - pastel. Understandably, not everyone loves the overly girly look. Which is where Sports Luxe comes in. Sports luxe is exactly what it sounds like - a luxurious take on the sporty look. We’re not talking shell suits here - but tailored and practical looks and lots of bright colours. Imaging a neon vest top with smart skinny black trousers and heels or fashionable but practical footwear.

If you’re after a laid back look for the day or an unusual evening look, Sports Luxe might be your trend to try this season.

What qualities are we looking for? Practical, super-comfortable, luxurious and clean lines while adding a little detail to your outfit.

When it comes to fashion trends for Spring/Summer, there is one particular look that is inspiring everyone, from the fashion magazines to the high street. Pastels. At last, those who create fashion and those that follow fashion can play with an exciting palette of pretty colours, leading to some very girly catwalk shows.

Pastels are just as popular in flip flops too. Gone are the clumpy boots of winter (yes, even when it’s pouring with rain!) and in are fun pastel colours, from heavenly macaroons to sweet sorbets, think fun in the sun with soft sweet pastel hues.

We're noticing that a lot of the pastel flip flops for this season are based around icy pink and very sky blue palettes. Not sure where to start with this particular trend? We’ve highlighted a few of our favourite finds for getting the pastel look.

With the current weather in the UK, it’s unsurprising that a lot of us are enjoying flip flops and summery dresses. We are still getting the odd day of overcast weather though, so there’s no need to pack away those jumpers yet! In fact, you might want to embrace some of those summer trends now.

Patterns are big for spring/summer, and will continue into the autumn. Floral prints in particular are a trend to observe. Floral prints are those patterns that evolve, it's all about the winding patterns that change as they move around the flip flop rather than patterns that repeat themselves over and

There is nothing as timeless as a pair of black flip flops. Their understated power resides in their versatility. Black flip flops can be styled with any outfit in your closet, no matter the occasion.

Black flip flops have a sleek, effortless allure that never goes out of style. They are the tried and tested summer staple everyone should have in their wardrobe. You can whip them on with jeans, shorts or dresses, wear them to the beach or dress them up for formal occasions - there is nothing they can’t do.

But even under the umbrella term of “black flip flops”, the options seem endless, and they might as well be. There is a black flip flop out there for every style and budget, from minimalist, thin straps that leave behind minimal tan lines to glittery, embellished and printed options that show off your personality every step of the way.
