How to do sundowner chic and get poolside perfection

Fashion statement

Poolside perfection

Heading to Ibiza for the 24/7 parties this summer? Then you’ll need a seriously hard-working holiday wardrobe. If the thought of trawling the shops for items to mix and match fills you with fear, here’s my top tip: River Island. The store’s collaboration with Pacha nightclub will take you from poolside to cocktails and then some.

How to wear

Sundowner chic

Your suitcase may be groaning with sparkle and shine for Ibiza nights, but don’t forget you need to look cool for the few hours of daylight you might catch.Rock a traveller vibe by clashing prints, layering up textures and adding cool accessories. This look will take you around the hippy markets, to the beach for sundowners and even over to Formentera on the ferry for the day. All these pieces can be spun with different items. Try the denim waistcoat over your bikini, wear the vest top with a pair of printed pants and the shorts will look hot with heels.

The wanted…

Hot watch

This is one indestructible timepiece! I can get thrown in the pool and this watch will still tell me when it’s cocktail o’clock.
