SUMMER can be a very expensive time; holidays and festivals don't come cheap. But forget the bucket and spade this year, because you won't have to dig deep for this Summer's hottest trends.

The sudden popularity of head-wraps and head-scarves comes as no surprise; these stunning accessories can hide the worst of bad hair days and really complete an outfit. New Look are currently running a 'buy one get one free' offer on all hair and head scarves, so be sure you don't miss out. The Rose Bow head-wrap, at £3.99, is just one of many charming wraps and scarves on offer, and are a must-have for the festivals.

When the sun decides to come out, you wouldn't want to be without your sunnies. Sunglasses are at their sweetest in Dorothy Perkins, with a wide variety of sunglasses in various summery shades, from pretty pink to mellow yellow, from as low as £6.40.

Peacocks have in a selection of gorgeous jewellery, including the beautiful Mixed Bead Bracelet and Jewel Drop Earrings, both for £6 each. Both are accessories guaranteed to make you queen of the festival this year.

A nice pair of sandals will go a long way this Summer. The Cognac Brown Sandals are all you'll need, for £14.99. Or if flip-flops are more your thing, then the Cerise Flip-flops, also from H&M are perfect, for £3.99. Their colourful print will liven up the dullest Summer day, but here's hoping there won't be many of those.

Whatever you do this Summer, make sure that your skin doesn't suffer. Boots are currently offering 3 for 2 across facial skin care, hand and body care and self tan products. Don't go away without a little something to keep your skin fresh and hydrated; sun burn and peeling skin is never a good look.

So whether you're partying on the beach, dancing along to your favourite bands or just lounging about in the garden, get the look for less this Summer.
