16th May, 2024
Wherever you're jetting off to, a well-packed case takes the stress out of holiday dressing and ensures you look effortlessly stylish all vacation long. From bags that were made for beach to bar, and dream dresses that’ll make even the most casual of dinners feel special, these are the items on our get-away wish list.
The Must-Have Bag
Dragon Diffusion’s woven bags scream “holiday”. Their gently-structured shape and celebration of craftsmanship instantly transports you to winding mediterranean streets and lazy afternoons. This olive green version of the brand’s classic basket weave tote is perfect for vacation season; just the right size for sunglasses, sun cream and your phone. As if you need anything else?
The After Dark Tank Top
Picture the scene, a cool sea breeze, white wash walls and the evening sun. What are you wearing? This Nanushka Tank Top, of course. It ticks all the cool-girl boxes with its thoughtful yet minimalist design and is a modern alternative when a floral dress feels a little too obvious. Pair with the matching pants for summer take on leather (or in Nanushka’s case, a sustainable leather alternative).
Essential White Pants
White pants are synonymous with the holiday season. The natural alternative to a pair of indigo jeans, they still win all the same style points for versatility and effortlessness. Our pair of the summer are these super high-tech Heliot Emil Wide Leg Pants. Crafted from mycelium – the same innovative fungi-derived fabric used by Stella McCartney’s fashion house – they have a subtle overlap detail and perforated print which elevates them to just the right heights. In the day time wear them JW Anderson’s Raffia Loafer or our edit of flawless Paris Texas sandals (python print sandals? Erm yes please!), and for night time pair them with Diesel’s Black Venus Pumps.
Do It All Dress
As much as the FoS team love an outfit change, being on holiday is about maxing out the down time. Casual enough for day time and the right dose of elegance for dinner and drinks, this Nanushka Dress is our secret to spending an extra 30 minutes on the beach. Ahh bliss! With its contrasting seams creating a body-hugging curve, it's also ultra flattering.
Cool And Classic Co-ords
How long do we have to list ALL the reasons why we love a matching set? They instantly feel chic, well put together and also make packing an ease. This Róhe Set – a waistcoat and midi skirt combination – is city-break perfection. It’s cut in a light-weight yet structured linen-blend fabric and champions simplicity with subtle design details that really make it special, such as overlapping asymmetric seams. Paris Texas’ sandals are a must with this Róhe set – our favourites being the brand’s Black Amalfi pair.
