Malone Souliers – backless pumps

///

Free heeling

Lighter than a loafer, smarter than a sandal: the backless pump is a no-brainer for summer with its nifty slip-on-and-go sensibility (plus it's way cooler than a plain flat). Wear with cropped denim for smart casual done right.

The white trainers

Marc Jacobs - saddle bag

Made in denim

Don't be fooled: denim's not just about jeans. Accessories decked in the blue stuff can be found in multiple guises this season (ripped, washed and even patchworked), with Marc Jacobs, 3.1 Phillip Lim and Valentino leading the charge.

New label to love: Loeffler Randall

Classic shapes, supreme leather detailing, but always with a playful twist (when can you ever go wrong with a pom-pom?): new-to-Selfridges label Loeffler Randall (pronounced Leff-ler, apparently) is the accessory brand we're all fawning over.

Suecomma Bonnie - frilled sliders

Get to know: Suecomma Bonnie

J.W. Anderson - mini cross-body and medium cross-body

///

Exclusive: J.W. Anderson

More or less every front row line-up during London Fashion Week had at least one J.W. Anderson Pierce bag (aptly named, thanks to the oversized barbell pierced through the middle) perching on the knees of the industry's most stylish. Inspired by the punk scene's love of a septum piercing, we can't get enough – and the good news is, these two beauties are completely exclusive to Selfridges.

Loewe - tan shoulder bag / Simone Rocha - black shoulder bag

///

Slouchy, oversized, or tied up in a bow – summer brings a whole host of shape-shifting shoulder bags designed for you to throw it all in, squish it all about, and go.
