Whatever the weather, Summer 2017 is going to be big and bold. Your summer wardrobe looks set to chase away grey, to replace it with uplifting and “sassy”. Think bright colours, contrasts and echoes of the 1980s with bling, lame and shoulder pads.

Colour options are more vivid than ever, and even floral prints and stripes will be re-imagined into stronger and more intense choices. The trend is to embrace the whole colour spectrum, but if there is a winner in the colour stakes, it’s fuchsia.

Pastel shades are still prevalent too, but you may find them paired off with stronger contrasting colours.

What about the styles? Well, dresses are big this year – in terms of trend and size, as long and kimono-style dresses are going to be popular. Many will feature ruffles as another throwback to the 80s. In keeping with a summer in which “anything goes” shorter dresses are also an option.

For example, for special occasions or just sunny happy days, Marks & Spencer has an eye catching Floral Print Flared Sleeve Tunic Dress featuring big bright floral motifs.
It’s £45 normally but with a Cardyard discount it would be reduced to £39.60!

Rompers and short-pant suits will be playful and sassy, but also smart, making it possible to go to work in shorts without looking too casual.

We love the ruffled linen short jumpsuit from Zara in sea green.
It looks comfortable, classy and summery. It's £29.99 but using a discount gift card from us you would pick up this winner for £26.99.

Even trousers have more than just a splash of colour this summer. Tropical prints are on trend and that includes some jazzy shorts, leggings and pants to bring a holiday feel to everyday wear.

A great example is the Cream Tropical Print trousers available from River Island.
These wide leg pants are brilliant for comfort and style. The retail price is £40, but using a Cardyard discount voucher you would grab them for just £32.
