HOLIDAY fashion is all about selecting the right pieces to create a ‘capsule’ wardrobe.

Select a few key items that suit your figure and can be worn throughout the week with different accessories.

For travelling on the plane, embracing the utility trend is essential.

Invest in a pair of trousers that will last over a number of seasons and go for a well-known brand. Levi’s are the place to go as their styles will always remain popular.

Team trousers with a denim trucker jacket for a great look – River Island has a whole array.

Make sure you only pack two pairs of shoes in gold, silver or neutral colours. Go for one pair of killer heels and, for the other, comfy flats.

Schuh and Primark have some gorgeous gladiator flats in golds, neutrals and silvers that are perfect for showing off your tan.

The tunic is back this summer and also make the most of the maxi dress as we’re starting to see a shorter mini-style filter down from the catwalks.

Petite women should go for a strapless maxi with big prints. Try Republic for a great selection.

If there is any space left over, make sure you pack a few lightweight tops.

This will give you a little more variety when putting your holiday looks together.
