2. Orange

Fresh and zingy, orange will add a pop of colour to your wardrobe. The secret is to keep this trend simple: add a dash of citrus in the form of a shirt, jacket or cargo pants. Since this colour is so dominant, pare down with blue jeans or a fuss-free white T-shirt to create a low-key, cool summer look. From left to right: polo, £210, baracuta.com. Knit, £225, drakes.com.
