Take the Plunge

Summer clothes are a much different

breed from winterwear, especially those

we pack for off duty days. They’re much

more playful for a start and designed to show

off sunkissed skin and lots of leg – and that’s

just for the boys!

Firstly, you have the opportunity to inject

some colour into your wardrobe, including

swimwear. Yes, black is supposed to be more

flattering, but the laydeez should throw caution

to the wind and invest in brightly coloured

swimwear that’s well-cut. You’ll be surprised

how sexy you’ll feel. A kaftan is still the perfect

beach cover-up for girls, and the new wardrobe

addition for the holiday season has to be the

ankle-length dress.

For men, practical swim shorts with a

fashionable edge and brightly coloured shirts

should be enough to conjure up that holiday

feeling, even if you’re just mowing the lawn on a

summer Sunday afternoon.
