The dreaded beachwear dilemmas start around now…we’re all looking for something that will look flattering on our shape, which doesn’t drain the colour from our faces. My top tips are to be bold with colour and ensure you’re buying styles that show off your best assets and discretely hide the ones you really would rather erase from memory. Know your skin tone; warm Spring skin tones like mine need beachwear with bright pops of colour. Golden mediterranean skin suits more muted shades. Cool, dramatic skin tones need more icy undertones like fuchsia, whereas cooler summer skin tones need icy pastels. Accessories can always add a little extra jazz and can create that all important talking point when you don’t want your bikini to be the focus of attention. Here are my top 5 beachwear picks.
