Summer is fading fast, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make the most of it while it lasts. We’re experts in locating the very best women’s summer clothing styles from the most exciting brands and new designers, and we’ve got one last late summer line-up for you.
Introducing our final SS17 edit; a collection of our favourite styles perfect for those final stolen days of summer, and just as perfect for the first few golden weeks of autumn.
Let’s start with footwear...
We’re at that stage in the year where it’s starting to get a little too cold for open summer sandals, but you still want a little bit of foot freedom. This is where these gorgeous golden mules from London label, Hudson Shoes, step in to save the day. The open heel and vented sides help hold on to an element of summer style and will keep your feet nice and cool, while the closed toe offers some protection just in case the British late-summer weather decides to be unkind at the last minute.
We absolutely love the glamorous golden suede on these mules; it adds such a gorgeous sunshine glow to any outfit you pair them with, and the chunky wooden heel is bang on trend this season and heading into next. Dressed up or dressed down, these are the ultimate summer-into-autumn designer fashion essential. Grab a pair here.
The key to perfect summer clothing is colour, and lots of it. This head turning blouse from London label, RIXO, more than delivers on the colour, and on everything else besides. Bold, floaty and loose-fitting, this blouse is vibrant and comfortable enough for warmer weather, while also flaunting equally autumnal colours and long sleeves for the approaching new season.
We fell in love with RIXO’s combination of daring contemporary style and nostalgic retro print of this blouse, and its potential for both casual and dressed-up outfits. You can pair this silken number with almost anything, from your favourite relaxed jeans to high-waisted skirts and heels, making it the ideal ‘main event’ piece for a huge variety of outfits. Take a closer look and buy yours here.

Accessories now, and we just had to show you this stunning clutch designed in the heart of the French countryside by Maison Baluchon. There’s something just so inherently summery about this gorgeous jungle-themed print, with its splashes of warm yellows, oranges and greens. Incidentally, these colours also lend themselves perfectly to traditional autumn colour schemes, so you’re well and truly covered for this season and next.
Carry all your essentials in style through those final balmy summer evening garden parties, and add a splash of nature-inspired fun to your AW17 outfits for the easiest seasonal accessory transition ever.
The right pair of trousers can make the perfect all-seasons fashion companion, and we’ve got that exact right pair here at Stanwells. These head-turning African print linen pants are the creation of luxury Italian label, 120% Lino, famous for their use of the best quality linens.
That mesmerising print combined with the lightweight linen and cropped style makes these pants the summer wardrobe champions, lending themselves perfectly to summer days out and evening BBQs. Fast forward into AW17, and you’ve got trousers to keep your legs from getting too chilly, combined with the vibrant earthy colour schemes of autumn. It couldn’t get much more convenient, or much more on-trend. Pair with sandals or ankle boots and a black leather jacket to complete the look. You can find these incredible pants right here in our online store.
With any or all of these pieces, you’ll be investing in fashion that lasts from season to season, and making sure you’re getting the most of the last of the summer sunshine.
