If, like me, you've missed the summer sales, which are now over, or couldn't find anything in your size, it seems that you're stuck if you find you need new clothes for that long-awaited summer holiday. Few replacements will be available until February or so (when the opposite happens - you're looking for cold weather clothes just as the shops fill with linen, t-shirts and shorts).
So, I've had a look around at some of the online shops to see what, if anything, is still available for summer wear. Among others, I tried a retailer I haven't looked at for a while, Brook Taverner - not high fashion, but, as I said in a previous post here, they have stylish clothes and accessories, including some British-produced fabrics, tweed in particular. You won't want tweed for summer, of course, but, I found that they still have some attractive summer clothes in stock - and their sale continues at the time of writing.
So, if you're looking to stock up for that August holiday, look for an online sale such as this one. I've picked a few of my favourite summer wear at clearance from the Brook Taverner website - clothes that would go well together and are always suitable for summer. Some are pictured below -
