The summer of 2018 has been one of the best ever and it appears that the hot British sunshine is influencing our fashion habits. Gone are the drab grey and black clothes of winter – and the normal UK summer to be frank. Now it's all about bright, happy, fresh shades to boost our warm summer souls. We're talking yellow, that tricky colour to pull off but when done well it looks super gorgeous – and Sainsbury's Tu brand reports sales of its yellow clothing were up 59% in May and a staggering 220% in June. That's one huge sales increase.

Yes, yellow is the surprise style trend of the summer; with hot weather has come a big demand for sunny-coloured clothing. The store reports its biggest yellow seller is tops and next comes dresses and skirts, many for under £20. Yellow is proving popular in all its guises, from sweet lemon shades to full-on bold brights.
