What Our Editors Are Wearing & Doing This Bank Holiday

I’m heading to Provence for one last summer trip and will be packing some of my favourite pieces. I am loving striped tops at the moment for adding interest to my looks. I'll complete my outfit with white shorts and understated, staple accessories.

I’m heading to Somerset for the long weekend and, with mixed weather forecast, I’m leaning into easy, lightweight layers. This cult J.Crew cotton knit is perfect for this time of year and I love the colour – bold enough to make a statement without feeling like too much. I’m pairing it with simple poplin trousers for an easy, relaxed look.

I’m spending the bank holiday in New York with a few of my best friends. New York in the summer is one of my favourite places; it’s such a great city to walk around – and yes, I’ll happily walk blocks in my heels. The Paris Texas mules are the perfect height for this and I find mules one of the most comfortable styles of heels. Team them with the colour-block striped drape skirt from Zara, which just screams summer. As I know the temperature will be well into the 30s, a backless top will keep the look light and, more importantly, keep me cool. To finish it off, I’d add oversized earrings from Cult Gaia and gold-rimmed sunglasses from Bottega Veneta. Lastly, the shape and colour of the Rejina Pyo bag bring the whole look together beautifully, picking up the bold summer tones of the skirt while adding a sculptural statement to the outfit.

I’m heading to Paris with my fiancé to celebrate the anniversary of getting engaged there – the perfect excuse for a long weekend. We’ll spend the first couple of days working from our hotel and hopping between some very chic coffee shops, before fully leaning into holiday mode with 48 hours of shopping, eating and aimless wandering. If in doubt, add another pastry. The weather’s actually looking a little gloomier than London but somehow Paris does grey skies better than anywhere else. More importantly, it gives me an excuse to crack out a few transitional pieces early.

I’ll be wearing my new Zara lightweight trench, which looks far more expensive than its price tag suggests. I’ll keep the rest of the look tonal with wide-leg trousers and comfortable loafers for exploring the city. The finishing touches include tinted sunglasses and my Saint Laurent leopard-print bag, which I’ve reached for more than any other lately.

In the last throws of summer, I'm heading to Kefalonia. It's very much a beachside getaway, so this babydoll dress from Dissh is the perfect piece to get me from beach to bar. These lace-up sandals from A.Emery are so lovely too and make a nice alternative to a classic flip-flop. Nothing says holiday more than a raffia bag and this one from J.Crew is so good – especially paired with my Prada bug-eye sunnies and a pop of red by way of a J. Crew knit.
