Escaping to warmer climes at the exact point when autumn finally gives way to winter is one way to inspire jealousy. However, it seems the high street takes its revenge by not displaying anything remotely beach-worthy in the windows at this time of year.
Swimwear is always tricky which shape is best for your body type? You can’t go far wrong with a bandeau swimsuit, which will make sure you don’t get any unsightly strap marks while looking your best in the sunshine.
Blouses and overshirts are essential both for covering up after sunbathing and for warding off any evening chill. Linen is a classic warm weather fabric, but its tendency to crease may not make it the ideal solution for a traveler. A chiffon shirt, like this one from Basler, will not only travel well, it adds a touch of glamour, especially in this gorgeous green print.
If you’re worried about showing off too much skin before it’s had a chance to acquire a golden glow, cropped trousers are a compromise between trousers and shorts. They’re also a great traveling outfit as they can be worn with flip flops or plimsolls.
Add a hat, sunglasses and the all-important suntan lotion and you’re good to go – bon voyage!
