The festival style is in again this summer; bold prints and mixing patterns is key. If you are heading on your holidays the bohemian style is the way to go.
Not forgetting the basics that everyone knows they need; flip-flops, bikinis, bags etc. you can always glam up your holiday look with some of these statements.
No matter what you are wearing or where you go this summer, statement jewellery, especially necklaces, is always accepted (if not encouraged!) Statement necklaces can make a simple, floaty day dress suitable for that comfortable, yet stylish evening dress we all want on holiday.
This personal favorite of mine is a Topshop special (only £8.50!)
If you aren’t quite brave enough to style the larger necklaces; semi-precious stones and gems are also totally on trend. A perfect, subtler addition to your holiday suitcase!
Another Topshop bargain. These are two necklaces that can be worn as a pair or separately. The turquoise stones will look gorgeous with that summer tan and at only £14 for two, what is there to lose?!
Now, the task of carrying everything to and from the beach is a problem we all face. The solution? A BIG bag. Everyone always looks out for that perfect bag, but never quite find the one that fits their needs. Firstly you need to question what you want; a rucksack? A Tote bag? Or a weekender bag?
This brightly coloured rucksack from Accessorize could be perfect for those eccentric people out there. Also, it is wonderfully practical and secure for long days out in the summer.
This Tote bag, also Accessorize/Monsoon, is perfect for those of us who can’t really pack lightly for those beach days. Call it the Mary Poppins bag! For £25 you can keep the bag all through the year and hopefully use it again next summer- an investment!
Now finally the safety part: Sunglasses. We all have one pair of sunglasses, but there is just something about always wanting to buy more. How about buying a fun pair of sunglasses instead this year? No one needs to be take too seriously in the summertime, so it’s a perfect time to purchase those funky shades.
These Boohoo pineapple shades are the perfect summer shades for a day at the beach with your best friends. This retro style may be slightly bold for some people but don’t fear; there are plenty of other options.
This is a more subtle, but still beautiful, style from Boohoo. The floral trim on these round sunglasses adds that perfect summer edge to that new pair of sunglasses and at £12 these are ideal to add to that summer bag without making too much of a dent in your purse!
