Let’s start .. How to look fashionable while enjoying a day at the beach?
The first rule for a fashion beach day is “feel comfortable and enjoy.” Use whatever swimsuit you feel more comfortable with and if you want some guide to give it some extra touch, remember that you can lean on guipure or crochet tunics, white flared dresses, mini shorts with long kimono, or one of those tye die prints that are taking all eyes in this 2020. Also, don’t forget that a raffia carrycot, a scarf in the hair, string bracelets or hats are elements that will help you to stand out and differentiate your outfit.

As an accessory a relaxed chain of laces, good glasses and a backpack to carry all your belongings.
Night comes and you want to enjoy dinner in a nice restaurant. What to wear?
Wearing casual clothes with an elegant touch is the best option to go to dinner at a nice restaurant with our boyfriend/ girlfriend, family or friends on a special night on vacation.
It is then that we recommend opting for a cocktail-style dress, long skirts and flowing fabrics, dress pants made of soft fabric and lace blouses with transparencies or the off-shoulder trend that are super ideal for that climate … As you already know, some centimeters of extra height never hurt girls, so complementing your wardrobe with a platform with a high heel or sandals that have height, is always a good idea.

And what can we say about looking stunning on a crazy night out?
This is exactly the occasion that everyone is looking to bring out the casual and fun style (similar to Coachella) that we see a lot in the photos of parties in Ibiza. That is why if you want to be part of this trend when you attend a night of dancing in a nightclub, do not forget to add details of sequins, glitter and whatever comes to mind: here the rule is to feel free.

In boys, linen shorts or pants, printed shirts, sandals or not very formal shoes and a beach accessory will look good.
