Essential holiday swimwear
If you’re anything like us, holiday packing can result in overweight baggage and undue stress long before you’ve even stepped onto white sandy beaches. So we’ve got a new tactic for this summer; we’re going to invest in a statement, higher-priced bikini, which will last us for years, and then team it with a few bargainous lower priced ones to pad out our beach wardrobe each year.
We’ve scoured the best and coolest that swimwear has to offer and come up with an edit of our must-haves – from old favourites like Seafolly to hot new stars like We Are Handsome (as worn by Rihanna!). Think the Ursula Andress white bikini, on-trend statement stripes, the classic black swimsuit and summery floral prints mixed up with more unusual, eye-catching designs, (including an owl print!).
Finish your poolside glamour look with flashy sandals, chic hats and floaty cover-ups, and all you’re missing is the cocktail in your hand. Enjoy.
