]]> Ah, best friends. There’s no stronger bond than the one between a girl and her platonic soulmate. From inside jokes no one else understands to holding each other’s hair up when you’ve had too much to drink, we all need a Blair to our Serena. When we’re lucky enough to have one, there’s nothing we want more than to show off our friendship to the world. And coordinating outfits are the perfect way to do that. After all, you probably already share your wardrobe anyway. Maybe you’ve outgrown the whole best-friend necklaces idea, but these matching looks are the ideal way to twin with your chosen sister this summer; and look good doing it.

]]> Just in time for summer, two of our favourite brands, Ester Manas and Ganni, have joined forces to create a collection of tropical swimwear and evening wear that flatters every body type while incorporating elements from both brands. 

Ester Manas is a brand focused on inclusivity and sustainability, founded in 2019 by Belgian duo Ester Manas and Balthazar Delepierre. They have received acclaim from the H&M Design Award, the Hyères Festival, the ANDAM Prize and the LVMH Prize, and have been described as “the most size-inclusive brand at fashion week” by the New York Times. If Lizzo is a fan, so are we! Pieces are made from mostly dead stock and upcycled fabrics to ensure sustainability, making Ganni a good partner as they have goals to reduce carbon emissions, switch to 100% recyclable packaging, and promote rental clothing.

Ganni is a Danish fashion brand founded as a cashmere line by Frans Truelsen in 2000. It has since transformed to focus on ready-to-wear pieces with a minimalist, ‘cool girl’ Scandinavian style seen on celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Bella Hadid. Ganni has previously faced criticism for a lack of larger sizes and only going up to a US 12, but extended sizes to make way for collaborations with Juicy Couture, Levis, and plus-size retailer 11 Honoré. 

https://www.instagram.com/p/CtizQxfLmWx/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Together, they have created a size-inclusive resort collection consisting of 16 pieces in sizes EU32–EU52. The capsule captures the quintessential holiday vibes with cropped t-shirts, colourful dresses, and fun bikinis for any body type. Talking to I-D Magazine, Ditte Reffstrup, Creative Director of Ganni, said they wanted to “conjure that mood you’re in when you’re going on a holiday, and everything feels so light and joy-filled” as well as something that “exuded a sense of feeling confident and sexy in your own skin”. The collection is also manufactured in an eco-friendly manner, using materials like organic cotton, recycled polyamide, and recycled polyester mesh.

Here are some of our favourite pieces from the collab:

As a new season rolls around, unsurprisingly, a new ugly trend is on the horizon. This one has taken the fashion world by storm, from the runway to social media influencers. It´s time to chuck out your chunky trainers in exchange for a pair of dad-inspired Velcro sandals.

For many, this trend might be reminiscent of your childhood, parents forcing you to wear comfortable yet practical shoes – and that´s exactly what they still offer, comfort and practicality. You may feel sceptical towards the rubber soles and utilitarian details which were once reserved for out-of-place tourists, outdoorsy folks and grandmas, but this shoe trend has recently reached a much wider audience, thanks to the influencers bringing sport sandals into the mainstream.

They’ve been around for some years: Marni presented them back at SS15, followed by Chanel SS16. Like most trends, this one has excited a niche customer for years – but has only recently been appropriated by fashion´s power house: Prada. Their Logo Embossed Leather Canvas Sandals have taken over the fashion world, and are sure to be all over your Instagram feed. The SS19 runways continued to demonstrate that this style is as cool as it is comfortable, with designers including Anna Sui, Cecilie Bahnsen and Sandy Liang embracing the ’90s-throwback sandals in their collections. Whether you choose the most talked about sandal (within a reasonable price range) Teva Velcro sandals, the blinged out version by Gucci or The Row´s minimalistic leather version; these sporty sandals may feel a little tricky to style.

So, how can you infiltrate this slightly awkward shoe trend into your wardrobe? Whether you’re heading to next weekend’s Glasto, or just feel like donning some sporty chic, pair them with cycling shorts in summer’s hottest colour trend: neon. If that´s not bold enough, wear your sandals with tie-dye socks to complete the look and ensure you’re standing out from the crowd. If you fancy wearing your new ugly sandals on the daily, style them with straight jeans, a cute crop top and some fun accessories. Alternatively, pair a maxi/midi dress with some glitter socks. Despite their nerdy connotations, the socks and sandals combination will garnish any outfit this summer.

A killer pair of sunglasses are an essential part of your wardrobe. Not only are they practical, but this little accessory can change your whole look. Last season was all about those retro Instagram sunglasses; SS19 is all about bold and dramatic eyewear in all different shapes and sizes. Voir takes you though a few looks and where to find them…

CYCLING SUNNIES

As seen on celebrities, on your Instagram feed and on the runway, this sporty eyewear trend is everywhere. Stella McCartney combined her sporty eyewear looks with the wraparound specs, Each X Other showcased rainbow mirrored designs by Poppy Lissiman, and Vetements added studs for an edgy look. Sporty sunnies were also seen at Nicopanda, Philip Lim, Alexander Wang, Zadig and Voltaire, Kenzo and MSMG to name a few.

Get the look with the budget friendly Monki Gradient lens sunglasses, a pair of classic Oakley, natural Illesteva Managua OR go for the runway look with Stella McCartney Turbo bio-acetate mirrored sunglasses.

TRIANGULAR

Saint Laurent sent disco-inspired upside-down triangles down the runway, whereas Burberry had an especially unique take on the triangle lens, with the lenses having a slightly rounded top and being downturned. Marni had their models wearing a very opposite style, playing on cat-eye triangle eyewear style.

Get the look seen on famous Big Little Liars’ actress, Zoë Kravitz, with LaroseStyle Punk Triangle Personality Sunglasses, or the sophisticated black Gucci Mask Frame Acetate sunglasses. TOPSHOP Jetson Pointy Slim Sunglasses are the perfect budget friendly accessory to bring along to this seasons’ festivals or dare to be different with ASOS pink half frame butterfly sunglasses.

RECTANGULAR

Some more bold than others; the 90’s rectangular eyewear shape is back and it´s loved by the masses. A sleek but wearable sunglass trend, this humble shape will go with whatever outfit you choose. They’re either very sharp and defined or slightly curved and rounded, but they always look chic. Off-White’s rectangular sunglasses came in deep black or neon colours, Self-Portrait used rectangular lenses for a safari green pair with thin metal temples and Y/Project offers a simplistic designs featuring deep brown lenses and golden metal details.

Get the rounded look with RAEN Exile pink unisex Sunglasses or a sharp and defined look with Bershka Rectangular screen sunglasses. For that nostalgic 90´s expression, Topshop’s Nostalgia Rectangle Sunglasses or Valentino’s Garavani’s sporty and cool look.

OVERSIZED

Oversized sunglasses are back – but this season bigger and bolder than ever. Designers played fast and loose with traditional eyewear shapes and created fascinating variations. From classic 70´s round sunnies to the butterfly shape, nothing is hotter right now than this season’s D-shape. Miu Miu, Elie Saab and Rick Owens are just a few of the designers responsible for exaggerating the popular and fun D-frame in order to create a new level of oversized.

Get the look with Christian Roth Rock n’ Roth sunglasses or LOEWE´s Tyra pair for the perfect 80´s bold statement. For an eclectic and luxurious style, try Gucci´s distinctive bold cat-eye frame covered in sparkling crystals or for a budget friendly look, try Bershka black maxi cateye sunglasses.

TRANSPARENCY

The transparent eyewear look is nothing new, but the combination of translucent frames in funky colours with matching lenses has never been hotter. It´s a cool, relaxed and sophisticated look, which will brighten up any outfit. So which colour suits you? Red Karen Walker sunnies, Blue Mapima Paula glasses or the colour of the season – yellow – used by several designers; Max Mara, Prada, Gucci and Maison Margiela.

Try Karen Walker’s rectangular Loveville sunglasses for a confident and sophisticated look, or a daring shape and colour with SkinnyDip´s Blue Cat sunglasses. Topshop MACY Full Visor orange sunglasses are the perfect big and bold statement glasses or for season’s hottest colour go for Maison Margiela yellow MMMONO Sunglasses.
