'Tis the season for Euro-summer preparations. With the weather starting to cool down on the Gold Coast, it's time to pack those bags and chase the sun over to European beach towns to enjoy some sparkling seasides and spritzes. This season is all about effortless glamour and letting the look do the talking for you. Sequins and knits are just a couple of trends we’ve seen popping up on the socials that we’re particularly excited about. A fun and fresh colour palette is also on the horizon to fit happily in our suitcases next to our already beloved neutrals. It’s time to take the guesswork out of holiday packing and actually be excited about what we’re wearing on our trips, both in and out of our favourite bathing suit and coverup.

Vacations are all about relaxing but who says you can’t enjoy the salt and sand without looking chic? Stay cool all day, party all night – while looking photo op ready! A fabulous dress is usually enough to do the trick and our St. Tropez inspired collection has a little something for everyone. If you’re in need of some Pinterest board-worthy inspo then look no further than these gorgeous pieces for some vacation-ready elegance that emulates that French Riviera charm.

1. For the Darling: Jagger Mini Dress

   

   So what are the plans for today? Whether it’s lunching on the beach or day-tripping through seaside towns, the Jagger mini is the perfect dress for keeping cool and looking cute. Lavish lace is spun into an adorable floral detailing that feels like everything you want out of a beachy summertime dress. The bodycon shape, however, maintains an elevated element that suits both casual and formal looks. Not to mention, this gorgeous gold colour really amps it up a notch and will make just about any skin tone radiate in the sun. This dress is for sure a head turner and a staple in any good summer wardrobe.

2. For the ready for anything: Khalani Midi Dress

   

   Sumptuous butter yellows are popping up on everyone’s mood board this season and we’re personally loving it. There’s nothing better than a well-fitted satin slip dress to throw on for practically any occasion. The deep V moment on this Khalani Midi Dress makes for a fun and flirty silhouette while the supple satin fabric is soft enough to wear all day and night without sacrificing comfort. Throw this on with your favourite pair of slingback heels and you’re out the door looking ready to take on anything – day or night. If you’re loving the fit and want one for every occasion, we’ve got you covered with different colour options such as dark olive, sage, and navy blue.

3. For the class act: Jocelyn Maxi Dress

   

   The Jocelyn Maxi Dress is a summertime dream. The drop waist silhouette creates an incredibly flattering shape that suits a range of body types and the white corseting gives reliable support for the strapless neckline. Just below the hips is this stunning floor-length skirt with a thigh-high slit that moves perfectly with the body. The Jocelyn is ideal for whoever is looking to feel both elegant and sensual, balancing perfectly between the two. Whether you’re looking to be best dressed at a formal event or just want a comfortable dress that still feels elevated, this is the perfect piece for feeling confident and elegant.

4. For the risk taker: Laney Maxi Dress

   

   Because animal print is basically a neutral – we’ve got the Laney Maxi Dress. This cheeky little leopard moment will do just the trick for making a bold statement that is sexy yet still sophisticated. While the sweetheart neckline gives a gorgeous shape to the shoulders, the floor-length style gives it an elegant enough feel that could transition from dinner to the afterparty with ease. The super stretch material, however, is what really makes the dress. Despite the flattering bodycon feel, the garment is comfortable and breathable so you can stay confident and glamorous for long nights out.

5. For the Trend Setter: Genie Maxi Dress

   

   If your mood boards and shopping carts have been flooded with sultry off-the-shoulder dresses like ours, then you’ll fall in love with the Genie Maxi Dress. Versatile and classic, this sage moment is giving sophistication at its finest. The high neckline and floor-length design assure you can dance the night away without any slip-ups while the jersey fabric has just the right amount of stretch. It’s one of those magic pieces that doesn't sacrifice style or comfort. This is the type of dress you’ll always be glad to have in your closet – it’s timeless, elegant, and truly embraces all different body types (not to mention this sage green is stunning and could work in practically any season).

6. Tamika Maxi Dress

   

   It's giving best dressed at the beach party and rightfully so. Who can say no to a crochet formal dress? Especially when it's as elegant as it is flirty. The Tamika Maxi is a stunning strapless column dress made with a crochet lace pattern. The nude inner lining underneath keeps things classy and the back slit on the legs adds a pop of fun. The fitted feel is also incredibly flattering – we say throw it together with some strappy heels and a nice clutch and you’ve got the ultimate head-turning look.

7. Paola Earrings

8. Emmie Belt

   

   It's a chain belt. It's gold. It's seashells. Can you think of anything better? We certainly can't, which is why we’ve been loving the Emmie belt this season. It’s the cherry on top to basically any summertime look you can imagine. Think of your favourite beach coverups, formal dresses, denim shorts – you name it and they’re all instantly elevated. It’s a great staple to keep in your wardrobe as it adds flair to even the most basic looks. The sleek yellow gold suits practically any colour or pattern so the versatility is good enough to wear every day.

9. Marcia Sunglasses

   

   Everyone needs that one reliable pair of sunnies to pop in their bag and head out the door. The ever-so-elegant Marcia sunglasses are a fan favourite and it's no guess as to why. These oval-shaped specs make for a perfect crossover between cool girl and clean girl. With everyone stacking their gold jewelry during the warmer months, the clean yellow gold hardware on these will go perfectly with just about anything. They feel super luxe and are versatile enough to be your go-to pair for any look.
