As we all know, the good old British summer time can be a bit temperamental weather wise. It is always best to take some kind of jacket for that sudden rain shower or thunder storm that can quickly ruin a BBQ or picnic! I’ve picked out a selection of my favourite types of light cover-ups to keep you going over the next few months.

A denim jacket is a classic piece that wont ever go out of fashion, and is most definitely a summer wardrobe staple as it will go with any floral dress or your favourite shorts. Instant style points!
