Helen Skelton's wet-look black dress and chunky sandals give a sultry edge to summer styling

Helen's sandals of choice are these chunky studded ones from ASRA London. Perfect for day and night, as Helen showcases beautifully in her Instagram post, these can work with casual daytime attire, as well as adding an edge and elevating evening wear too. 

We're not 100% sure this is the same dress worn by Helen, as hers as really shine to it. But we think it might be this very similar-looking piece from Zara, the knit fabric giving it the shiny look as seen in her photos. Either way, the cut, square-cut neckline and wide straps of the dress is a style that will never go out of fashion.

Helen goes with simple accessories for her evening look, letting her stunning dress and sandals do the talking. The TV presenter completed her look with a classic black crossbody bag with chain, which complements her outfit perfectly. Great for day and night, this pick from Mango is super chic and excellent value. 

These baggy, raw-edged hem denim shorts are a similar style to Helens, but we love the longer length and looser fit to this pair - particularly if you're looking for a bit of extra coverage while still staying cool in the heat. We love how the model has been styled here for a more elevated day look - shows the versatility of the usually very casually styled piece. 

Keeping safe in the sun doesn't mean you have to compromise on style. Helen keeps UV rays away with an ultra chic woven sun visor with black trim, which wraps around her high-up hair style, keeping her extra cool and protecting her from the sun. We love this one from Oliver Bonas, which has a fun animal print on the underside to elevate the design even further. 

Helen's orange and white woven beach bag is from Topshop, but has sadly sold out. However if you're quick you can still grab the same design in this gorgeous green and brown stripe. The oversized style makes it perfect for a day at the beach, and then when home, a great every day shopping bag.
