That doesn’t mean you need to squeeze yourself into that itzy, bitzy bikini to enjoy the balmy (hopefully!) months ahead. Bright and colourful is the order of the day, with delicate cover-ups to keep you cool in vibrant colours. Go big, go bold or go home – with large prints dominating the summer fashion scene.

A carefully selected piece of jewellery can make all the difference to an outfit – and the good news is it needn’t break the bank.
And while you may not be interested in time watching when you’re on holiday, a time-piece can be a great accessory, adding some sophistication to an otherwise laid-back look. |6| |4|
There’s lots of fun and fabulous pieces available at the bridges for the perfect finishing touches.
