Summer Playsuits: River Island


I have such a love/hate relationship with playsuits. I love how glamorous they look,  the summery vibe they evoke and their wonderful history from being invented in the 1930s, worn heavily by Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor in the 60s. Playsuits have stood the test of time and every summer they keep reappearing back in our wardrobes, they only issue is they tend to not suit me. 


After losing so much weight in the past, I have a little bit of a jiggly belly and playsuits have a tendency to draw attention to it. It's very rare that I come across a playsuit I love because of this, even though I'm always drawn to them and spend hours trying them on. Whilst I was shopping for my honeymoon essentials a few weeks ago, I came across this gorgeous turquoise print playsuit from River Island. The pattern looks tropical and summery, whilst the black bottomed shorts make this playsuit look glamorous and elegant. The playsuit looks like it can be dressed up or down for various occasions and the beautiful turquoise colour will look great whilst I'm strolling on the San Antonio beach in Ibiza.



If there's anything I have learnt from my mini shopping spree, it is that you shouldn't automatically rule out certain clothing based on a few ill fitting garments. I've searched all over for the perfect playsuit and this is one of them that I'm happy to be in my wardrobe.

Have you bought any playsuits recently?

  1. Oh I love this, it's so bright and cheerful. I have steered clear of playsuits after having my children due to my less than perfect belly, but I would be tempted by this one!
