Summer/Holiday Essentials

I live in sunny Plymouth when i'm not at Uni and live near the beach :) so i'm always in a summery/holiday mood (if the weathers good of course) and I always start buying and browsing for summer clothes early. Also with a holiday booked in June I just can't help myself.

I noticed New Look has a great selection of basic vest tops for £4, printed tees for £6 and little shorts for £8.

Obviously, you can't forget Primark where you can probably pick up all your cheap bits and bobs you need for a week away in the sun.
I bought this kaftan from primark for £8...
I'm not a fan of the swimwear in Primark as i'm soo fussy.
For the summer I bought a nice bikini from Marks and Spencers instead.
However, Matalan does have a great selection of swimwear for the right price. Below... bikini top from £4, bikini bottom from £3, gold flip flops from £5, beach bag from £6 and a cute printed halter neck top for only £8.
