This my last column before I switch off for annual leave. Because all I can think about right now is holiday fashion, this week is dedicated to those finishing touches that make my vacation outfits pop. I’m a big fan of classic basics when I go away. The simple linen dress, wide leg pants or shorts that are easy to pack, pull out and wear with minimal fuss.
But it’s often the accessories that make my outfit feel special taking it from all day at the beach to evening drinks with friends and family. Here are a few of my trusted favourites that do all of the above with the added bonus that I can wear them at home in the city too. Hope there’s a little inspiration for you in here, wherever you’re jetting off to this summer. See you on the other side!

HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK
The past week has seen the team at Marie scouring the internet to find the most deserving fashion pieces to invest in with your hard-earned salaries. As we reach the last stages of the MC_Spring/Summer 2025 season, it's a good time to take advantage of the seasonal sales and stock up on a few transeasonal essentials for September, as well as treat yourself to that stylish item you’ve had your eye on for months.
If you’re curious to know what the Marie Claire editors are investing in this month, check out their carefully curated pay day picks list now, including this playful Chloe leather shoulder bag with charms.
