THERE’S no need to pack endless cover-ups for the beach, all you need is a white linen shirt.
It will go with every colour or pattern of swimwear, like this zebra costume from Pep & Co, £12.
A longer shirt will cover your bum and upper thighs if that is what you are after, but they also look great tied in a knot at the waist.
The white t-shirt

WHEN it comes to building a holiday wardrobe, you need essentials to work around.
The humble white T-shirt is one of those must-haves that will work for travelling, evenings out, day trips and everything in between.
For a look that’s both effortless and dynamic, why not pair with a bright midaxi skirt, like this yellow number, just £22.99 from Stradivarius.
The longer shorts

SAY farewell to microscopic hotpants and hello to longer ‘boyish’ shorts.
Not only are they much more stylish, they’ll put an end to painful chafing between your thighs.
