The summer holidays might have been and gone but our fashion editors are gearing up for the long weekend. Three days of sun, surf and well deserved spritzs.
From swishy wrap skirts to a cotton dress for every style, these are the pieces you need to shop now.

This shirt is my summer go to. It is perfect open over a swimsuit, or also teamed with a pair of jeans and a slide.

I’m still very much getting over a recent holiday to Sri Lanka (and all the vacation dressing that came with it) so am getting in as many beach dresses before summer ends. Right now I have my eye on this Three Graces London sundress, which is perfect for the BBQ I’ll be going to on Saturday!
