One of the biggest trends this season has been colour blocking. As the name suggests, this is simply wearing big expanses of bold colour all together. Jewel colours work best for a strong look – think fuscia pink teamed up with post box red.
Some people will run a mile at the thought of such a bright ensemble, but for anybody a little colour shy the best way to get this trend is with swimwear – after all, Summer is the best time to get in touch with your colourful side! If you can't be colourful and have some fun with your style at the beach, when can you?
Idlewild Swim have the perfect key pieces to achieve this trend – everybody on the beach will be green with envy!
This Buckle Tube Bikini Set from Seafolly is a brilliant blue, and perfect if you have a small frame. It features beautiful silver buckles and detailing, and costs only £75.
If you fancy something a little more muted, this Precious Solids Bandeau Bikini set from Seafolly is perfect for you. It is currently at the fantastic sale price of £45 so hurry and grab yourself a bargain!
If the thought of a bikini is a little daunting for you, there is a wide selection of one-pieces at Idlewild Swim. Try this Seafolly Monroe Maillot Swimsuit, £85. It is a lovely hot pink, prefect for holidays, but in this classic style you will get to use it season after season.
This Moontide Overlay Swimsuit, £50, is ideal for anybody who wants to draw attention away from their mid-section. The clever overlaying of fabric across the upper mid-section and bust instantly attracts the eye upward, and therefore away from pesky mum's tums – or indeed any holiday overindulgence!
Pick any of the above swimming costumes to suit your style or body shape, then wear this Maya Kaftan from Lepel over the top. This will look great for poolside cocktails and lunches by the sea. At an amazing £10 it is a fantastic buy to complete your colour blocked look.
