10 Must-haves for Your Holiday Wardrobe

Whether you’re planning a staycation, or booking one of the luxury family holidays available these days, it’s a good idea to think about what clothes and fashion accessories you’ll take with you. The right attire will help you look and feel good while you’re away, so here are 10 must-haves for your holiday experience:

10 Must-haves for Your Holiday Wardrobe

  1. High-fashion shades

If you’re jetting off to a warmer climate, high-fashion shades are essential. Not only will they protect your eyes from the sun’s harmful rays but with many fantastic styles available for 2015, they’ll help you look every inch the beach babe as you stroll across foreign shores. Floral-embellished frames, mirrored lenses and round retro styles are bang on trend, so don’t be afraid to be a little quirky.

  1. Floral wedges

When it comes to shoes, floral wedges are huge this season. They’re easy to wear and can be dressed up or dressed down making them an all-round great purchase. Wedges with interesting patterns will instantly brighten up a classic, white sundress and will look fantastic on a warm, sunny day.

  1. Bustier crop top

Not afraid to show a little flesh? Then a bustier crop top would look great teamed with a pair of high-waist shorts or stylish crops. This summer fashion trend even works well with a bright, colourful maxi skirt and will complement longer evening trousers too.

  1. A fluorescent frock

If you’re looking for something dazzling to wear for happy hour, then you can’t go wrong with a fluorescent frock. Every girl needs a solid neon piece in her holiday bag, so choose a colour which reflects your personality and wear it with style be it canary yellow or blazing orange – it will also look great with your new holiday tan!

  1. Bright bling

And while we’re on the subject of fluorescent, bright really is better, so keep your eye out for beautiful bling that will enhance your holiday wardrobe perfectly. From chunky necklaces to bulky bracelets it’s all about the oversized look for 2015, so don’t hold back.

  1. Floral print shorts

This year, there’s a new trend taking the catwalks by storm – floral shorts. Available in an array of different materials (including denim and cotton) and a host of styles, these garments can be worn with plain coloured vest tops or shirts.

  1. Striped maxi dresses

Maxi dresses can be worn anytime of the day and night and are light, airy and comfortable – perfect for hot climates. Sure, you may have solid colour maxis already, but why not spice up your style a bit with a striped version instead?

  1. One-shoulder dress

From glamorous evening dresses to feminine day dresses, one-shoulder frocks are big for 2015 – but don’t forget to invest in a strapless bra to really make this style work.

  1. A classic trench

If you’re braving the temperamental weather of the UK and holidaying closer to home, one of this year’s classic trenches could be just what you need. Double-breasted, belted trench coats are extremely stylish and unlikely to go out of fashion for many years to come, making them worth the investment.

  1. Denim dress

While you can’t go wrong with a pair of denim crops or shorts on holiday a new, slightly swankier design is proving a hit this year – the denim dress. Designed to last, denim dresses look incredible with sky-high heels but can also be worn with sandals for a more casual look.

Wherever you’re going on holiday this year, make sure you look the part with the above fashion essentials.
