It might be Wimbledon; it’s definitely the sun ; but there’s that feelgood feeling in the air. You’ve worked hard, but finally it’s time to reap the rewards. Grab your passport – it’s HOLIDAY time. Nothing beats turning on your ‘out of office’, but I know only too well about that mad dash to get everything done before my flight. So this issue is all about solving every vacation dilemma. Did you know that as a nation, we spend around £216 on outfits for our trip? I’m definitely a huge holiday spender (c’mon, that new dress looks way better with a sunset backdrop) but p8 has me sorted with the ultimate denim shorts and strappy tops worthy of my suitcase weight. If you’re still looking for that ‘made for Insta’…

Breaking news: fashion’s getting juicy. Where pineapple prints dominated the scene last year, this summer it’s all about the watermelon – and they look so good you’d be forgiven for watering at the mouth just looking at them. From Dolce & Gabbana to Prada and Charlotte Olympia, you can’t avoid the mass of fruity items colouring the high street this season. In semicircles or triangles, the watermelon motif comes in all slices and sizes. Mango’s good-enough-to-eat tasselled earrings will update your weekend jeans and tee combo, while Topshop’s sliders are the perfect holiday wardrobe addition. Commit fully with a printed dress or co-ords and pair with your dream summer basket bag. It’s a fresh addition to any summer outfit.…

We’ve lost count of the number of bikini Instagrams we’ve seen this year. We’ve also lost count of the hours we’ve spent wondering how said swimsuits fare when it comes to tan lines, but we’ve finally got an answer. According to ASOS, a third of its customers only buy swimwear to look good in a snap – as opposed to functional reasons like, you know, being waterproof and the ability to do more than one length without fear of indecent exposure. Nothing important, then. Of course, there’s plenty to go round when it comes to Instagrammable swim style, but we’ve spied a load that are both stylish and suitable. So what will it be: Insta-ready? Waterproof? The choice is yours… SENSIBLE STANDOUT Play It Safe And if Instagram is bottom…

‘Shaving Will Remove My Tan’ Myth! Natural tans result from melanin production deep within the skin. Shaving only exfoliates the very top layer of skin, meaning it absolutely won’t remove a tan. ‘Shaving Daily Will Make My Hair Grow Back Thicker, Darker And Faster’ Myth! Scientists at Gillette have tested the effects of shaving on hair growth, texture and colour. Results proved that shaving does not affect hair regrowth in any way. Shaving may alter the way hair initially feels after removal because it’s altered the tip shape of the regrowing hair. ‘Laser Hair Removal Causes Ingrown Hairs’ Myth! It’s actually the complete opposite. Laser hair removal significantly reduces the chances of getting ingrown hairs because it destroys the hair follicle, effectively killing the ingrown hair.…

#1 STAR BUY OF THE WEEK A good pair of summer heels is pretty hard to come by. Besides being on trend, they’ve got to be comfy and keep your feet cool – which is why we were so excited by River Island’s latest landing. Block heels, ankle straps, statement style – they’ve got it all. They’re even limited edition, which means there’s a much lower chance of you turning up in the same pair as anyone else.

“She just wants to focus on her time with Joe and with her closest pals” One thing that’s been synonymous with Taylor Swift since the beginning of time has been her very public displays of affection with her BFFs. From her 2014 Bad Blood music video, where she recruited her pals as extras, to her Instagram posts declaring her love for them, Taylor will go down in history as the woman who invented the #squad. But since she’s been happily coupled up with actor Joe Alwyn, her squad is nowhere to be seen. So, erm, what’s happened, guys? It has been a very difficult few years for 27-year-old Tay. After a high-profile 15-month romance with DJ Calvin Harris, the pair split with a bitter fallout on Twitter in 2016. Taylor…

Crocs. IKEA bags. Granny glasses. Unlikely trends come and go, and now there’s another doing the rounds: the French fisherman’s bag. We know what you’re thinking: but everything will fall through the holes! And what about my secret sanitary stash? Well, the street style set has got it sorted and they’re officially hooked. Here’s what we’ve learnt so far. 1) Zip up valuable/secret/small items in a chic little pouch. 2) Wear on the beach for babin’ boho vibes. 3) Slay those flat lays. Already more appealing, huh? And if, like us, you lose your phone at the bottom of your bag 492 times a day, you’ll be able to see exactly where everything is. Now all you’ll be fishing for is compliments. And likes. Insta-likes, obvs.…

Going Up In Style British Airways has officially taken the crown for most chic airline – and now they’re even partnering with The White Company. Snazzy, right? Jetting off this summer? Be sure to share your in-flight outfit selfie using #LWIW. FLIGHT TIME 1-2 HOURS Good news for those staying close to home: we firmly believe shorter flights allow for a little more freedom when it comes to styling. Why not take on the trend of the season and slip into a chino midi skirt and logo tee combo? Make the most of the snappy flight time by opting for a small(ish) bag to hold all those in-flight essentials – mobile phone, snacks, headphones – and finish the look with a pop of red lipstick for instant airport glam.…

Become A Long-Weekender ‘Taking several shorter breaks is a great way to maximise your annual leave and it’s amazing how much you can see, do and eat during a long weekend. Plus use bank holidays to take a long weekend away, or roll it into a week’s break for just four extra days’ annual leave.’ Get Tactical ‘It’s worth being tactical with your travel – by booking flights and accommodation separately, you can really maximise on your time away by choosing flight times that mean arriving early and landing home late. Fine, you might be a little bleary eyed at your desk the next morning, but the extra few hours poolside or those sunset cocktails before you leave for the airport will be well worth it.’ You Can Still Backpack…

“He’s someone she can settle down with” For more than a decade Rihanna’s been one of the world’s busiest women. Music, films and fashion: she’s covered all bases. But her personal life has suffered, oooh, just a little. Enter Hassan Jameel. Since going public with her new man last month, Rihanna has been glowing and according to pals, she’s now considering a future that doesn’t involve touring and promoting for most of the year. Instead, she wants to focus on projects that will give her lots of free time with Hassan. ‘She’s met someone who’s worth walking away from the music industry for,’ says our source. ‘The men she’s dated in the past [Chris Brown, Drake] have been involved in the business. With Hassan, it’s not like that. He thinks…

HAIR TYPE: THIN I wish I had the ability to grow gorgeous long locks, but sadly my hairdresser pretty much forces me to cut inches off as it breaks easily otherwise. But fine hair comes with a blessing – and that, guys, is manageability. So when summer comes knocking, air-dry styling is my every day. Here’s how I do it... CRIMPING PLAITS I love the boho beach wave effect when I’m on holiday. Apply VO 5 Beach Waves Styling Foam, £ 4.39 , all over, then plait hair into six sections. Wait until it feels dry (super-quick if you’re on hols), take out the braids and then smooth a serum over. LOOPED BUN I leave my hair down until it’s just damp, then comb some Redken No Blow Dry Airy…

The question on everyone’s lips RN: ‘Can you tan through your make-up?’ Well, we finally have the answer: yes! Keeping your skin safe is a must, but true beauty afficionados know that make-up and sun cream often don’t play well together – that’s how you get that ‘ghost’ look in flash photography. Even the best foundation in the world can’t compete with SPF – it either goes patchy thanks to the extra oil on your skin, or it flakes off. Not a good look. Luckily, technology in the beauty world moves at the speed of light. Enter the answers to summer’s greatest beauty setback. These hybrid shields will protect your skin without spoiling your slap.
