When you're wearing a great outfit and feel good, it's such a confidence boost. And with summer here, there's never been a better time to give your wardrobe a little jhuzh and tap into the colour block trend.

Donning one hue top-to-toe may seem daunting but this trend is actually oh-so-wearable. If you're not feeling brave enough to go all-out, try mixing your look with classic tones like cream, white, navy or denim.

As always, think about what you want to emphasise – whether that's your bust, your waist, long legs, a petite frame or curvy figure. Your fabric choice can totally change up your outfit too, slinky fabrics like satin are perfect for a glammed-up feel whilst or linens are ideal for dressed down chic.

Also be aware of your colour palette and what works with your skin tone and hair colour – some shades will look better than others depending on whether they're warm or cool tones. You want that "lit from within" glow with your colour choice.

But whatever your vibe, the heat style team are here to show you how to rock the look, no matter what your size, shape or personal style.
