This is the second of two blog posts to show you my two favourite outfits that I wore while away on my incredible holiday to the beautiful island of Majorca. This outfit is a dressy yet relaxed appoach to an LBD, taking on an exotic and 'holiday' vibe to accompany the lush weather and beautiful scenery. 

I found this playsuit on Boohoo.com, a website I always look to for affordable fashion pieces! I instantly fell in love with the pattern, a bright array of gorgeous, exotic flowers. I think the design is very bright and summery, perfect to compliment any skin tone as well as bringing beautiful colour across the outfit. Set against a black background, this is the perfect combination for a summery night-out look. The material is slightly textured too, which adds further depth and makes it appear more dressy than just a simply, jersey material, again adding a more sophisticated feel. The top half is styled with a wrap-around front, something I wasn't feeling quite brave enough to sport. I simply slipped a plain, black vest on underneath to give myself a little more coverage, however, the style of the front is really flattering if you are more comfortable than I am with this style. The synched-in waist allows attention to flatter your figure and, while the shorts are a little on the the shorter side, they definitely don't reach the point of being inappropriate and, for someone petite like myself, really aid in giving the appearance of longer legs. I chose not to style this piece with a necklace as I wanted to keep the statement upon the playsuit and its bright and colourful pattern. Nonetheless, I do think a small pendant, worn with the original, lower neckline would really bring attention to the wrap-around front and definitely compliment the outfit! I know this would flatter so many shapes and the general idea of a playsuit seems a lot more fun than a dress, while still keeping the aspect of glamour. 

I chose to pair this with a pair of brown gladiator sandals. Sticking with a subtle colour, I chose to keep the emphasis on the playsuit itself, and with the beautiful weather we had while away, this simple pair of sandals aided the 'holiday' feel of the outfit and helped to keep it further towards the casual side for an evening meal.

I knew the second I pulled this playsuit from the packaging, when it arrived at my door, that this would be such an amazing outfit to support the beautiful sunshine, not only in Majorca but back home too, on the days where the same old LBD just wouldn't cut it! Have you thought about switching up your style and rocking a playsuit for a night out instead?

I had the most wonderful time on my recent family holiday to the gorgeous island of Majorca. I wanted to share two of my favourite outfits that I sported away in the beautiful sunshine, the first being this poolside playsuit combo I am in love with! 

Whilst holiday shopping during the weeks that approached my holiday, I was in search for a stylish cover-up that could easily be slipped on and off by the pool or on trips to the beach. I picked up this playsuit from Primark for the amazing price of £5! However, the incredible price tag of this product isn't the only reason I fell completely and utterly in love with this summertime staple. The material is really lightweight and loose, perfectly suited to the hot weather we had while away. I doesn't cling to your figure, except for the elasticated waistline which is very flattering, and is easy to drape over a bikini or swimwear whilst out and about. I also find it the perfect length short-wise, not too long but covers you up! I may venture back to Primark to pick up a couple more of these playsuits! They had a lovely range of patterns and colours and the design is not only perfect to slip on and off on holiday but also just on a day out in town at home!

I styled this outfit with my poolside necessities of a straw hat and some sunglasses. I searched from shop to shop to find a simplistic straw hat that didn't swamp my little head. I found this round hat, styled with a black bow, in H&M that was the perfect size for me; big enough to keep me shaded but still a suitable size for my petite size! What's more, it came in sizes Small, Medium and Large, depending on the size of your head, making it suitable for all. Teamed with my large, round sunnies, I felt these accessories added a glamorous touch to a simple outfit.

I wore this outfit all throughout my holiday and know I will continue to sport these items back here in the UK too! I couldn't recommend each product enough for a hot, summer holiday on both style and practicality and definitely suggest popping your head into the shops listed to see if anything takes your fancy!

Thank you for reading and stay tuned for Part 2!
