An Ibiza inspired look with River Island

Everyone has their ultimate summer holiday destination. I don't know what it is, but when I think of summer, I think of festivals and Ibiza. I've never been to Ibiza before, but it's definitely on my bucket list.

No matter whether I am jumping around in a field at a festival with friends, or partying it up on the White Isle, the look I would gravitate towards would be ethereal and boho inspired, with a splash of colour here and there.

Gold cuff - £6  //  Maxi skirt - £45  //  Floral print bikini top - £18 //  
Khaki fringed bag - £50 // Gladiator sandals - £40 //  Floral print bikini bottoms - £14 

Gold body harness - £50 //  Tinted lens aviators - £13

Sandals - nothing ruins a night out more than calling it short because of achy feet. Flats for the win!
Bikini - beautiful colours - plus versatile for if you want to take a dip later!
Floaty skirt - the light weight material makes this the perfect evening cover up, yet the slits add a cheeky flash of skin
Fringed bag - nothing says summer more than fringing. Also good swish factor for dancing.
Body harness - why go for normal jewellery when you can wear... a harness? Take bikinis to the next level!
Arm cuff - wear on your wrists daytime and on your upper arm later to take the look from day to night
Aviators - no holiday is complete without aviator shades. Ibiza screams for bold colours!

I chose these items because they are so easy to mix and match with other items in your wardrobe. No matter where in the world I am, with this kind of outfit I can see myself embracing summer, with a drink in one hand, maxi skirt twirling and swirling with me as I dance the night away to my favourite summer tunes. I'm still loving the Robin Schulz remix of Waves. It never gets old!

Which trends will you be embracing this summer?
