GuruIt is that time of year again when it's out with the winter

wooleys and in with the hot new Spring/Summer looks. So, what is the fashion for Spring/Summer 2012? Catherine Hancock takes a look at what we can find on

the high street.

This is the season to get your abs into shape, with the crop top making a comeback just in time for Spring, as seen on the Armani catwalks. Team in with a long flowing skirt to get the latest gypsy inspired look.

New York fashion week saw several designers showcase their big bold prints on the runway - it’s a must this Spring/Summer, and a great look for the Chester races. The bigger prints the better.

Classic stripes are a big come back this summer. If you are going to go for the stripe look, make sure they are vertical! Colour clashing is also a must this season, so be daring and throw all your brightly coloured clothes together and make a fashion statement.

Jungle fever has hit the fashion world and African prints dominated the catwalk this year, with Burberry being the flag runner for this look. Team the outfit with some sky high wedges for a less casual look. n
