Your poolside wardrobe, sorted

If you were ever in any doubt that the one piece is the best swimwear of choice this summer, then ASOS is about to change your mind.

Enter the monochrome striped swimsuit that is so popular that all the influencers are fighting over it, and it’s just £22.

So why the popularity? Well, we have a few theories. First off, its monochrome stripes make it Instagram gold, because model it against a turquoise swimming pool backdrop and you can’t get chicer than that.

It works well as part of a #flatlay too, alongside some oversized shades and one of those straw hats with a slogan on it, or a basket bag.

Secondly, it goes with everything. Pair it with a red kaftan for a pop of colour, or with a loose white shirt and straw hat for laid back cool.

And finally, it’s cut in a way that is flattering on any body shape, so you really can’t go wrong with it.

It is still available to buy, but there are only a few sizes left in stock, so we’d hurry if we were you.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
