Day 1

I love to add an element of colour or pattern into my outfit. On our first day in Milan I was able to do both with this off shoulder striped top. Do you remember it from my trip to Jamaica?

Day 2

This was my favourite outfit from the trip. This skirt has so much volume and it went perfectly with a simple silk cami. An easy holiday look to replicate!

Day 3

On our drive down the coast to Florence, I knew I had to wear something beachy and colourful. My Heidi Klein jumpsuit was the perfect fit; petite girls, the length is just right for us! I then changed for the evening into this beautiful dress I found in Milan from Italian brand Twinset. I love the dark florals, even for autumn or winter!

Day 4

For our day in Florence I opted for this white dress from the new Maje collection. I love the bottom of the dress with the intricate lace details. Of course I added a pop of colour with a beautiful fan!

Day 5

For our first evening in Rome I knew our first stop had to be the Trevi fountain! I pulled out this dress from my closet which is actually very old but a great example of a timeless silhouette.

Day 6

Did you know that Victoria Secret makes ready to wear clothes? One of my very stylish friends told me about it and I ran over to get this beautiful green jumpsuit for my trip!   I paired it with a pearl headband for that perfect elegant touch. Note how I’ve styled the same belt bag in a different way!

Day 7

On our last full day in Rome I channelled a modern Audrey Hepburn look with this beautiful floral Zimmermann dress. I paired it with a pair of cat eye sunglasses I found in Milan for that retro vibe and my Chanel backpack.

Day One: The Chic One Piece

Luxury

On our first day there, I opted for a stylish and classic one piece from one of my favourite swimwear brands, Solid & Striped. This one piece is a classic cut and universally flattering so you know it will last season after season. I’ve linked to this swimsuit, and a few affordable, but still stylish, options below. Make sure your ad blocker is off so you can see these amazing options.

Day Two: Candy Stripes

High Street

I am totally obsessed with stripes this season and this striped bikini is no exception. I wore this on day two and was so impressed with the quality of this swimsuit. I love the fun yellow and white stripes as well. This one is from Next which you can get here. For other affordable options, or for an investment piece, scroll the widget below.

Day Three: The Frill Bikini

High Street

We went to a local beach on day three where I wore this pink frilled Topshop bikini. I love the delicate frilled details on the top; another super flattering piece. This is from last season, but it’s still available in baby pink and they also made a frill bikini in baby blue. For more options see below!

Day Four: The New Designer

Luxury

You all know how much I love discovering new designers and Hunza G is my latest crush. They are a London based company who make the cutest swimwear. I particularly love this bikini becuase of the tortoise shell detail and the terry fabric. Plus, the colour is mind blowing! I got this one from Koi Bird, a swimwear pop up in Marylebone which is very much worth checking out if you have a trip coming up!

Day Five: The Classic Bikini

Luxury

If you’re looking for a flattering, classic bikini worth investing in, look to Heidi Klein. Her styles are cut to perfection and her prints will last you season after season. This stripe bikini for example, would never go out of style! You guys were loving it on Instagram and I’m sure it’s because Heidi Klein has the best cuts!

Day Six: The Rainbow Touch

Luxury

Another amazing piece from Solid & Striped! I picked this piece up right before I left for Jamaica and I am so glad I did. The colours look amazing against a tan and the style is also really comfortable. I wore this when we went river rafting down the Rio Grande! I’ve linked to this one and some more affordable rainbow pieces for this season below.

Day Seven: The Show Stopper

Luxury

I bought this Zimmermann swimsuit back in January and have been waiting to wear it since then. I was so excited to finally share it with you all on this trip to Jamaica. Everything about this swimsuit is beautiful, from the detailing of the flowers on the bottom, the chic waist belt, the high waisted style and the off shoulder top! If there was ever a swimsuit worth the splurge, this is it. Of course, I’ve linked to a few more affordable options of high waisted swimsuits below!

Day Eight: The Iconic Piece

Luxury

The Missoni print is unmistakable and if you’re looking to expand your luxury swimsuit collection, investing in a Missoni piece is well worth it. The other pro about investing in a Missoni swimsuit is that they are timeless and last forever. It’s a print that will never go out of style so you know you’re getting your money’s worth! I opted for a high waisted style again. It’s very flattering for petite girls like me! I’ve linked to some more affordable printed options below.

Day Nine: The Surprise

High Street

You know when you look at a swimsuit and you aren’t sure if it’s going to look that great, but you suddenly put it on and fall in love with the style? This black bikini from Frankie Swimwear was exactly that. I wasnt’ sure if I was going to love the one shoulder style but once I put it on I felt so chic! It’s a very minimal yet bold style and something that anyone can rock! This one is available on The Bikini Project; a website that just launched today!

What do you think of my swimwear? Do you have a favourite piece?
