The beauty of how shopping has evolved means that we have almost every brand at our fingertips thanks to e-commerce and online retailers. The most coveted, must-have item can be ours the minute we read about it in a magazine. I have spent the last week between Dublin and London, previewing the best spring summer collections from some of the world’s most famous online shops. Trends like monochrome and print dominate, along with statement accessories, especially in neons, which will inspire a colourful and fun season in fashion.

Simplicity is the key to looking great this season. Bright and breezy colours, minimal shapes and more relaxed styling are big fashion news, according to Anthony Ryan’s fashion show which showcased the latest looks for spring/summer at The Ardilaun recently.

Pepe Jeans looked to the hipster hang-outs of East London for its autumn/winter 2012 womenswear collection.

It is time to channel your inner rock star. Leather jackets are a trend that will never fade, they can be found on the catwalk each season. Celebrities such as Alexa Chung and Cheryl Cole are regularly papped in their fitted leather jackets and skinny biker jeans. This look is timeless and can be carried from autumn through winter. Leather jackets can be rather pricey but fear not, BORN Clothing stocks a wide range of PU leather jackets ranging from €39.95 to €179.95.

It is easy to dress up or down and this summer it is back with a bang. Denim never goes out of fashion and subtle changes keep it up-to-the-minute.

Are you going on a summer holiday soon? The key to successful packing is to choose key pieces and work around then. A little planning will bring you a long way. Consider what you are going to do during your holiday, how often you with be going sightseeing, outings, relaxing by the beach, and decide on simple, versatile looks.

You may think that looking ahead to Spring is a little premature considering we are amidst a cold winter, but the fashion industry always works one season in advance. I am a regular London Fashion Week attendee and back in September I found it hard to decipher Spring/Summer 2012 trends, when we hadn’t even hit Winter. But that’s the way the industry works and the challenge for a journalist is to predict what’s coming. Christmas may be in the air, however, the fashion media start to preview upcoming collections as early as October. And so over the last week, I have had Spring in my step!
