So if you haven't got your present sorted already, check out our guide to the best Father's Day gifts you can buy this year, too.

1. Fimpo Nail Prints 

RRP: £9.99 for 22 prints; Lamp, £15.99

If like us, your nail design ambitions far exceed your creative skill, these will be right up your street. Stick the prints onto bare nails, file down to fit, pop on the clear top coat and cure under an adorably tiny USB-connected lamp. 

It takes ten minutes and the dexterity of a toddler to create gel-topped nail art that should by all rights have cost £50+ and taken 90 minutes in a salon. There are lots of designs to choose from, from understated to attention-grabbing, and ours lasted a good week before lifting, then soaked off easily with acetone. 


scents for summer (opens in new tab)

2. Furla Autentica Eau de Parfum

RRP: £49 for 50ml 

The trickiest bit of picking scents for summer is finding one that half of your friends, family and neighbourhood WhatsApp group don't already wear. If you're dithering between nice and affordable yet omnipresent, or unique but expensive/downright weird - this is your solution.

It smells lovely. Like fresh Italian citrus with classic peony plus a moreish hint of sweet almond and cherry (aka Bakewell tart) It's also affordable, widely available, but flies slightly under the radar because Italian designer Furla only started making perfume in 2020. Get in there now and you'll have 'wore it first' bragging rights when everyone else jumps on board.


3. Sisley All Day All Year 
RRP:  £273.60
Wowza! Yes, that is the correct price so no, this won't be for everyone. But look - there's luxurious skincare and then there's Sisley. And if you are already a fan of the high-tech French brand's iconic Black Rose Facial Oil or dreamy suncare then you'll know there is just something about these products. 
This one is particularly clever because, as the name suggests, it protects your skin all day. From what? Everything, really - 250 types of pollution, UVA/UVB, HEV light from screens... you name it, this will bat it away from your face. It also increases collagen and is encapsulated, so sits in your skin for eight hours and genuinely does not need reapplying. So at least you're saving money on top-ups (ahem). (opens in new tab)

White trainers (opens in new tab)

1. White sneakers by D.A.T.E

RRP: £172

White trainers will never go out of style but the trend for bigger, chunkier and bolder sneakers doesn't seem to be going anywhere either for the time being. 

Lean into the trend with a feminine edge with these platformed trainers from D.A.T.E. The subtle, soft pink detailing will go with your best pink dresses this summer, but these would also look cool with a pair of jeans or summer trousers.

Both colour and texture are top shoe trends for 2022, and no summer capsule wardrobe is complete without a trusty pair of espadrilles to take you from day to night in stylish comfort.


3. LOVE sweatshirt
RRP: £79
2022 is the year of designer and athleisure brand collaboration, so it seems only fitting that The All England Lawn Tennis Club, which stages Wimbledon, would launch their most fashion-forward clothing collection yet this year. 
Everything from the new line is designed in-house, just a few feet away from Centre Court, and made with high-quality fabrics and finishings. The 2022 Collection has arrived just in time before the start of Wimbledon and combines clothing that can be worn both on and off court - like this simple yet stylish navy jumper.  (opens in new tab)

The summer season is all about weddings and getting your outfit sorted for other big events like christenings, garden parties or the races. Figuring out what to wear to a wedding is hard enough but then finding a bra to go with your chosen dress can be nearly impossible.

Enter Wonderbra with their range of backless, strapless and multi-way bras to save the day. This Ultimate Wired Strapless Bra is regularly voted as one of the best strapless bras on the market - and for good reason too. A must-have for your underwear drawer this summer.

6. Hoka X Free People Movement Ora Slide

RRP: £40

Hoka are known for having some of the best running shoes on the market but these slides are designed for recovery time. They offer the same level of support and comfort that we've come to love from Hoka though, making it a great beach shoe for those who want a little more cushioning than some of the other sandal staples out there. 

This year, they've collaborated with boho-chic brand Free People to create two vibrant, pastel-inspired shades of the slide for an extra beachy feel.

7. Veja V-10 Sneakers

RRP: £120

Sponsored

Leaders in environmentally friendly sneakers and arguably one of the brands that made eco-friendly sneakers crafted from recycled materials fashionable, Veja continue to lead from the front when it comes to both style and sustainability. 

The latest designs are still made with raw materials sourced from organic farming and ecological agriculture, without chemicals or polluting processes, but also feature new colour-ways and a chunkier, more cushioned sole that is great for both increased foot support and keeping up with the latest shoe trends.
