Holiday essentials




Okay, admit it. Every time you go on holiday, you pack your case to bursting and then live in your cossie and sarong for a fortnight. This time, be disciplined. Pack only the bare essentials - then allow yourself two indulgences, say a pair of wedge heels to show off your sun kissed legs and a fab sundress - and then focus on having a good time

Top 10 holiday must haves:

  • A jaunty rainbow striped bikini by Pistol Panties is the perfect beachwear. Bold, jewel bright colours were everywhere on the catwalks - from Roland Mouret to Louis Vuitton - roll them all into a gorgeous skimpy bikini and you're in holiday mode instantly.


  • A Kikoy cover-up - these African woven sarongs can be worn in a variety of ways, or simply used to mark your spot on the beach - in sunshine colours, they're versatile and flattering

  • Havaiana flip-flops come in every colour under the sun and are the only thing to wear under the sun.

  • Venus Vibrance, razor and Satin Care gel is the perfect duo to ensure extra smooth legs, any time, anywhere. The perfect travel companions to any holiday destination!

  • Wedge heels, which you simply can't avoid - and they'll elongate even the shortest legs.

  • The denim mini is a timeless classic and is perfect for showing off a fabulous pair of bronzed legs.

  • Simple printed, cotton 1950s style sundress - Boden's bright blue 1950s bloom dress makes us think of Gwyneth Paltrow in The Talented Mr Ripley.

  • Gorgeous v-neck cotton cardigans are just the thing this summer in a range of mouthwatering colours. Take your pick from daffodil yellow (it's more flattering thank you think), Coral, azure blue, dusty green or purple.
