10 Gorgeous Holiday Outfits To Inspire Your Sunshine Look

By Sarah Macken

Glean some holiday dressing inspiration from these looks …

If Alexa Chung’s recent holiday snaps – where she lived it up at Le Sirenuse in Positano – are anything to go by, then red hot pants are in and sandals are out. Instead, Chung opted for leather slip-ons and ballerina as holiday footwear. 

A holiday capsule of puff-sleeve blouses, boxer shorts, slip dresses, basket bags and floppy hats in buttery creams sounds perfect to us.

Is it a dress, is it a nightie? When it comes to holiday dressing, it doesn’t matter. Just make sure it’s white, comes in crisp cotton or silk and has a lace trim. 

If you ask us, a pair of white lace trousers, or indeed a white lace maxi skirt, is the zenith of riviera chic. This style, by Australian label Dissh, is going viral.

In case you needed a reminder that a shirt is the perfect beach cover-up … Opt for an oversized style and tuck it into a pair of high-waisted bikini bottoms. 

If there’s one thing Lucy Williams shows us, it’s the power of a dressy holiday top for sunset cocktails. Best accessorised with silver jewellery – and a golden glow. 

Balance out the aforementioned oversized shirt by teaming it with a mini length skirt. 

If you’re going to invest in a pair of chic co-ordinates, why not make them white and embroidered? 

A moment for how good Irish linen looks in the sun: this voluminous dress by Kindred of Ireland makes for the perfect beach cover-up. 

Lastly, don’t forget the accessories (and we don’t mean a beach bag). A gorgeous beach towel will spark joy on the daily – and it’ll mean you take your look down to the final details.
