Tropical Print T-Shirt V-Neck Wrap Dress Print Detailed Swimsuit with Lined Cups

Truly Tropical

First and foremost, we had to start with tropical. We can’t get enough of this fabulous SS14 trend, and the sights and sounds of Brazil have made us love it even more. Packed with personality, its vibrant print has heads turning for all the right reasons.

Why not show your sporting spirit in this Tropical Print T-Shirt. Its confident mix of colour screams summer fun. Team with denim leggings and T-bar sandals for effortless SS14 chic. Or if you’re going day-to-night, swap the sandals for heels and dress it up with a touch of red lippy. It’s the perfect transition piece.

Colour Punch

Similarly, Brazil is all about the colour. So don’t be afraid to step outside your comfort zone in something bright and beautiful. Ditch the pastels, and instead stand out from the crowd in this stunning V-Neck Wrap Dress.

Its striking red breaks the mould, and is sure to get you noticed. If you’ve a special occasion coming up, there are no excuses! Stick on a sparkly pair of heels and let your outfit do the talking.

Beach Style

If you’re heading on holiday this summer, celebrate in Brazilian beach style. On Rio’s white sands you’ll spot statement colours (hot pinks, lime greens, zesty yellows) punchy prints and sun-kissed skin.

We love this Print Detailed Swimsuit with Lined Cups. For us it captures the fun and playful side of Brazil. Its printed mid-section and black panelled sides flatters curves and draws the eye to all the right places – offering comfort and style for long days on the sands. Simply complete the look with a cool kaftan if you’re heading beach-to-bar.
