Dua Lipa Shows Off The Perfect Mediterranean Summer Lookbook
The certified queen of vacationing is at it again. Following the wrap of the UK leg of her Radical Optimism tour, Dua Lipa has been globe-trotting once again – this time across Italy and Spain with her fiancé and friends. As always, her Instagram serves as the most picturesque holiday mood-board, particularly when it comes to the singer's vacation style. From bold prints and sparkle to romantic flair, the tastemaker has perfected beachside glamour which captivates yet never strays too far from effortless. Last week, the singer started off her vacation in Italy with fiancé Callum Turner. On Instagram she shared snaps in a black and white polka dot bikini from Australian label With Jéan. The teensy two piece featured lace detailing, which softened this season's go-to print while adding a retro touch. A pair of cat-eye sunnies rounded off the timeless look. A few days later, on July 4, the singer shared more vacation shots, this time from Mallorca, Spain. Perhaps taking inspiration from the city's nightlife, this time Lipa opted for a striking silver and black studded Hunza G micro bikini. The shimmery set was styled with a sheer Christopher Esber skirt, also featuring rhinestone detailing. Fear not, because the glamour did not stop there. The 'Levitating' singer accessorised with silver Tiffany & Co cuffs on both arms, as well as two silver necklaces. She continued with gleaming silver rings, most notably a $28,000 USD Bvlgari Serpenti Viper ring and of course, her stunning engagement ring. Continuing with her Mediterranean lookbook, the singer called in another of this season's sartorial trends, this time doubling down on leopard print for a day in the water and posing by limestone walls. Bold and oh so fun, the itty-bitty and sparkly leopard print top was paired with high-waisted denim shorts, as well as a leopard print belt. The singer kept on the Tiffany cuffs and necklaces from her previous look and added on a metallic quilted Chanel bag. Perfect for a day out exploring the city. Now, daytime beachside looks weren't all the inspiration being served. On Sunday the singer shared a night-out look which perfectly toed the line between risqué and elegant. On her Instagram, she showed off a black lace halter-neck gown with a slight train, paired with a visible black thong underneath. Lipa kept accessories simple this time around, allowing the striking yet minimal look to shine. With the style winning-streak she has going, we can't wait to see what looks the singer has in store for us next!

Meghan Markle rocks leg-lengthening mini shorts in stunning beach photo
The Duchess of Sussex solidified her style credentials at the weekend as she shared a stunning snapshot of herself running along the beach. The joyful image, which was shared to Instagram on Saturday, showed the former Suits actress looking ultra-chic in a monochromatic linen get-up comprising a pair of leg-lengthening mini shorts in white, an oversized, cream linen shirt and a pair of tan leather sandals. Meghan, 43, spruced up her beachy look with a wide-brim straw hat, dark sunglasses and a cluster of golden bangles. She had her raven locks swept away from her face, and appeared in her element as she strode away from the shoreline with a huge smile on her face. "That weekend feeling," she penned in her caption alongside the sun and musical note emojis. Over on her official As Ever Instagram page, meanwhile, the mother-of-two shared a glimpse inside her wholesome weekend plans. In a nod to her passion for foraging, the Duchess uploaded a picture of herself picking ripe fruit from a tree in her garden. Embracing the sunshine, Meghan could be seen wearing a simple white blouse and a straw hat embossed with the letter 'M'. In her caption, she wrote: "Weekend plans: pick, snack, repeat." Meghan launched her lifestyle brand earlier this year following the release of her Netflix show titled With Love, Meghan. As part of her brand's soft launch, the Duchess reportedly sent 50 jars of jam to the likes of fashion designer Tracy Robbins and polo player Nacho Figueras' wife Delfina Blaquier. A tagline on her brand's website reads: "What began with a small pot of fresh fruit preserves, bubbling away in my home kitchen, has inspired this curated collection to bring surprise and delight to your every day." Following the success of her initial product launches, Meghan has recently added an array of new items, including an apricot spread, honey and a rosé wine which is set for release on 1 July. "With soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality and a lasting finish, this bespoke blend is launching just in time for summer entertaining," a description for the rosé reads. In her recent podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, Meghan hinted that As Ever's direction would defy traditional marketing tactics often seen in luxury circles, including the now-commonplace "scarcity drop" approach. "I want to move away from that scarcity mentality," she explained. "I don't want you to eat that jam once every six months. I want that to be on your shelf all the time."

How to Choose the Perfect Swimsuit
There are several well-established parameters for choosing swimwear: You will, of course, want to take into account comfort, coverage and support. As the Amsterdam-based hotelier and boutique owner Carmen Atiyah de Baets, 33, says, 'You have to feel good in your body to vibe in a swimsuit.' But what about the sense of place and mood it conjures? A style that's at home on a Brazilian beach — more skin than fabric — might feel off-key for a swim in a chilly Michigan lake or along Oahu's North Shore. 'I don't surf in my string bikini, that's for sure,' says Ilona Hamer, 39, a Santa Barbara, Calif.-based stylist and co-founder of the resort wear brand Matteau. And while you might be attached to your trusty black one-piece or functional long-sleeved rash guard, indulging your curiosity about a different look for a new season can be rewarding. On a recent weekend trip, Atiyah de Baets traded her usual bikini for one with an unexpected two-tone print. 'I immediately felt like dancing,' she says. Take this quiz to figure out your swimwear personality, and to find tips and product recommendations from the experts. Let's get started!
