Functionality remains the springboard when choosing your trusty holiday companion. If you’re tight on space, choosing a handbag style that will double as a beach bag and cabin bag is a must. This raffia tote from Maje is ticking all the boxes, large enough to carry your inflight essentials – think headphones, magazines, moisturiser and, of course, your all-important snacks. Better still, it’s chic enough to hold your beach day staples – book, suncream, sunnies, swimsuit and towel.

Between action-packed sightseeing trips and early morning strolls, Maje's latest capsule offers a host of summer-perfect style solutions. First, make room in your suitcase for a warm-weather top, and choose from lightweight cotton tees or fool proof linen styles. Mix and match your selection of tops with your favourite denim or printed shorts – you can't go wrong with the classic T-shirt and shorts combo.

When poolside lounging and beachy activities are on the itinerary, packing something to throw over your swimsuit is essential. Take the patch-style knit cardigan, a delicate work of crochet with fun fringing on the back. Simply layer over your favourite swimsuit or matching bikini top and add a pair of shorts and flat sandals. This day-to-dusk look will ensure you’re ready for any spontaneous plans.

After hours spent in the sun, there’s no better feeling than showering off the day and getting ready for an evening out. For a casual dinner, Maje's pretty cotton dress – with fun balloon sleeves and a flowing skirt – is an effortlessly elegant choice. Or, opt for the crochet cropped top, a fun addition to any holiday capsule. Elevate yours for an evening out with white trousers and a few statement accessories. Be it dinner, drinks or dancing, nothing exudes holiday style quite like these breezy picks.
