Hot Stuff- Beach Attire!

Reading week and March break are both at last within reach- so what will you be wearing on the beach? Bikinis, sunglasses and sandals are among necessities for your warm getaway, so once you've got those you better get packing!

Cutout bikinis like this Nasty Gal one are popping up in stores all over! Although they are very cute, tanning would be a complete mess, making the style a questionable option.

With this Threadsence bikini, you'll be able to rock the cutout trend without condemning yourself to a zebra tan (except for on your hips!) 



High-waisted swim suits are making a comeback, one that I completely support. Although they will make your legs look a mile long, they will work best on girls with smaller chests as they tend to shorten the appearance of the torso. This Urban Outfitters suit is such a happy print that you'll brighten the beach just by wearing it! 

And how could you go wrong with a one-piece? This (other) Urban Outfitters suit is made up of such pretty pastel blue and purple colours that you'll be sure to catch the eyes of onlookers! Great for all body types, the open back and side cutouts are great for those who want to leave a bit more to the imagination. 



I won't try to pretend that your average bikini-wearing woman would typically opt for this somewhat silly and unusual look, but I absolutely love it! Topshop is great at fabricating articles that are edgy yet silly- fashion needn't try too hard, and this Topshop bikini is a great example of that.  

                                                   

If you're often drawn to a more boho look, then this (other)  Topshop swim suit is for you! Its muted colours and wooden beads are reminiscent of the '70s and the classic triangle style is always appropriate. 

Now- time to shop, pack and enjoy!
