Glastonbury has come around once more. Now that Summer has officially started (ignoring the odd rain shower of course), Glastonbury festival marks the highlight of Summer for so many.

As hundreds of thousands of revellers make the pilgrimage to Worthy Farm, will you be joining them?

Without a doubt, with over 100 stages across the site, Glastonbury festival certainly have a huge range of acts, artists and music scheduled. This year, with PJ Harvey, Ronnie Spector, Cyndi Lauper, MØ and ELO on the bill it's looking to be a goodie.

Sheer layers are always popular through the Summer months, and this year more than ever. With major trends for SS16 including ruffles, frills and relaxed romanticism, sheer layers help to add a touch of edge to the season.

Here at NAVY, we know that when planning those all important summer wardrobes and festival looks, sheer is key. We've picked out our top SS16 pieces to add those touches of sheer to see you through the Summer in style.

With the run of Summer festivals well underway, this weekend plays host to one of the most iconic music festivals of all time. The decades old Isle of Wight festival kicks off today, and this year's line up is made up of some of our our favourite artists.

If you haven't already got your Summer calendar sorted and packed full of festivals, then it is time to get planning.

Of course, Coachella will always be our number one festival. But now that it has passed, we are geared up for a Summer of the best festivals around. Looking to find your perfect festival for 2015? These are our top 5 festivals you need to mark in your diaries.

Field Day 6th - 7th June, London UK
Bringing a little bit of 'Village Mentality' to London, with a strong line up to boot. This year, you could be competing at the Coconut Shy, before popping over to check out the sounds of Patti Smith.

Glastonbury 24th - 28th June, Somerset UK
Where would we be without Glastonbury. Explore Worthy Farm by getting lost down The Rabbit Hole, dancing the night away at Shangri-La and watching the sunrise at the Stone Circle.

The Garden Festival 1st - 8th July, Croatia
Croatia has become a hot spot for glorious beach side music festivals. The Garden Festival is wrapping up a decade of music along side a crystal clear ocean - so don't miss you last chance if this one if for you.

Wilderness 6th - 9th August, Oxfordshire UK
Boutique festivals more your thing? Wilderness is set in the heart of Oxfordshire's English countryside. A laid back lakeside music festival / giant dinner party.

Burning Man 30th August - 7th September, Nevada USA
Turning the desert into a city. Burning Man is such a huge festival, it resembles more of a pop up city so big that it is easiest to get around it by bike. The week long eclectic event is all about sharing, peacefulness and building a temporary community of likeminded individuals. Concluding with the iconic burning of the 40ft high sculpture.

(Wish you could make Burning Man, but staying UK based for the summer? Check out Greenman, set in the mountains of Wales. Where the chilled out intimate festival is also concluded with a giant party and ceremonial burning of the wicker Greenman standing watch over the festival all weekend.)

Come on the Summer.

Embrace etherial white for Spring Summer 2015 and channel the chic styles of many catwalk looks this season. White featured heavily amongst the collections of almost every designer showing at New York, London, Milan and Paris last year.

From the prairie inspired collared dresses of Chloe to the bohemian spirit of Alberta Ferretti's lace and fringed suede styling. There is no denying that SS15 will be awash with crisp white layers and sheer silhouettes.
