What to wear in the current
Relaxed classics for the beach and beyond
This summer, I am trying to be more conscious about my staples- the kind that do more than just look good on the poolside. Lately, I’ve been loving Hunza G’s long-sleeved swim pieces. They’re incredibly flattering on the body, and the sleeves add a subtle layer of built-in sun protection. Their fabric offers SPF 50+ physical protection, which is especially key when I’m out in the sun for hours. Hunza G’s strikes that perfect balance: effortlessly chic while also shielding your skin from harsh UV rays.
I recently escaped to a little seaside town called Biarritz- a place that’s been on my travel list for ages. With dreamy skies, rugged coastal views, and Hossegor just a short drive away, it’s every bit as charming as I’d hoped. Surfing is Biarritz’s most popular activity (if that is your cup of tea), but for us it was mostly beach days with the kids, who had an absolute blast., If you have little ones of your own, Biarritz is a lovely place to spend with your loved ones.
And then there was Turkey- more specifically Bodrum- which was fantastic. We had the pleasure of staying at Maxx Royal Hotel. They have a spectacular range of restaurants for us to try, their wellness centre was a much needed TLC for the adults, indulging is seriously an understatement! The kids also had their share of fun with Maxx Royal’s own children's play area, Maxxi Land, as well as catching the waves around Bodrums beaches . It’s safe to say: Bodrum has my heart.
Of course, with all that sunshine, skin protection is top of mind. To keep my skin protected but also glowing, I use Emma Lewisham’s Sunceutical SPF 50 Mineral Face Crème, with 20% Zinc Oxide. This face cream protects you from both UVB and UVA. It's lightweight, non-greasy and packed with skincare-level ingredients that nourish your skin all while protecting you from the sun. It’s that perfect “skincare meets suncare” moment. She also has one for the body which is just as lovely.
