With temperatures set to soar again towards the end of this week, figuring out what to wear in the heat is a priority. If you're stuck for inspiration, Holly Willoughby has just worn the most stylish and practical daytime formula.
Spotted earlier last week in Portugal ahead of her YouTube channel launch, Holly combined denim Bermuda shorts with a floaty white blouse and strappy brown sandals; and her outfit feels put-together for sunny days out, yet breathable enough to combat high temperatures.
Longline denim shorts (or jorts as they are also known) are one of the season's biggest style heroes, and their longer length makes them some of the most flattering shorts you can invest in. However, if you're stuck on how to style them, you can't go wrong with a pretty white blouse. Holly finished the look with dark-framed square sunglasses shielding her eyes from the sun.
The longer length of these shorts offers more coverage. Their relaxed silhouette makes them feel effortlessly cool, and they will pair with everything, from pretty blouses to simple t-shirts.
Made from a soft, lightweight cotton, this sweet blouse not only looks the part but is a breathable choice. Perfect for adding a polished touch to denim, this blouse will soon be a summer capsule wardrobe favourite.
Freshen up your footwear collection with these brown strappy sandals. They are made from smooth brown leather and feature a small, low block heel for easy everyday wear.
These Bermuda denim shorts are crafted solely from cotton for a rigid, sculpting fit. Despite this, the relaxed cut offers a slightly airier, flattering finish.
The soft cotton fabric of this feminine white top will keep you cool in warm conditions. It features pretty design details such as short puff sleeves, a scoop neckline and a tie front.
Finlay is home to some of the best sunglasses around, and this luxurious pair are a firm favourite of mine. They feature a round cat-eye silhouette that exudes glamour.
What stands out about this warm-weather formula is how easy it is to recreate. The breezy blouse can be tucked into your waistband for a waist-highlighting finish, and adding your most comfortable sandals means that you can wear this look for a range of activities, from running errands to weekend day trips.
Look for blouses made from natural fibres such as organic cotton or linen blends to add to your summer outfits. These fabrics are the most breathable and cooling thanks to their moisture-wicking properties. And relaxed floaty designs ensure that you stay comfortable all day long.
