Garden Party Chic

It seems this gorgeous weather is here to stay and with another long weekend on the way we know you’ll be taking full advantage of it!  So why not ditch your drab winter wear and get prepared for all those fabulous garden parties which are on their way! 

We’ve put together some top looks from the great range at our Piazza stores so you’re ready for all occasions this season…



Floral prints are huge this season and to keep on trend we’ve picked this white layered maxi dress for an effortlessly beautiful look.  For some height - try these nude clog-style wedges from Internacionale with this New Look candy pink satchel bag.   
 

If you prefer separates, try combining textures with this neon lace top and a fun lemon print skirt by New Look.  We also recommend these Peacocks low white wedges for the more elegant party-goer.

If you’re looking for a more modern twist on classic animal print - this Internacionale strappy number is sure to turn some heads!  Team it with this New Look Belt Purse and chunky bangle to become a bohemian goddess this summer…

And of course, don’t forget some bright vintage shades for a pop of colour!



So get down to the Piazza to pick up your catwalk looks today! 

Summer Swimwear - to suit you!

The summer is coming up fast and, which usually means panic for most of us to get the perfect beach body. Worry not though, readers - at the Piazza  we have the perfect swimming outfits to hide all of those little lumps and bumps while making the most of your best assets!

Here's our guide to what you should look out for when you're shopping for your beachwear this summer...

Bigger Up top

If you are bigger up top then go for a wire support bikinis or deep V neck line swim suits. As well as making sure you're well supported, these styles will flatter your chest, too.  

Little up top

Those who have a smaller top half should choose a bikini with more statement on the top half: fringes and patterns will give the illusion of a fuller bust, or there are a number of padded bikinis to be found in Piazza stores to accentuate your assets. 

Tummies and Self Concious Beachgoers...

Will be delighted to hear that the Swim Dress is back, and retro looks are going to be big. These cute little oufits hide all manner of sins and are still functional to wear at the beach and pool.

Big Bottoms

Don't hide your booty away! J-Lo and Beyonce are testament that bigger behinds are the way ahead! To show your off, choose bikinis with designs on the side:  rings and bows are set to be big.

Big thighs

To give your legs a slimmer appearance, choose bright coloured statement bikini tops teamed with plainer, darker bottoms. 

Troubled by your Torso?

As well as our worries about bums and tums, attention can also turn to torsos as we look to beach season.

For those who'd like to lengthen their torso, we'd recommend choosing a halterneck bikini, drawing attention to your chest and shoulders while making your body appear longer.

Those with  longer bodies should consider going for high legged bottoms, to accentuate the length of your legs and add balance to your body.

The great thing about bikinis is that tops and bottoms can often be purchased separately - so you can make sure that you choose the style that suits you best. 

Here are some of our favourites from Piazza stores - happy shopping!

 

Find your Fashion Fix!

With such a range of great styles in fashion this season, you're sure to find your perfect look in Piazza Stores! We've taken our favourite picks from what's in style this season..

Summer Sweety

Bright colours, including Corals and Reds  are very big for the summer. Fashionistas know that gingham is not just for Dorothy – we love this cute dress, which will suit almost all shapes and sizes. Throw on a pair of wedges and you’ll have this summer's ultimate beach look!

Cool Looks for Hot Nights Out

For those (hopefully) hot summer nights, mix white trousers with bright tops: this green top screams summer elegance, cool and classy for hot nights out. Of course, should our typical Scottish weather take a turn for the worse – you can always team it up with a brightly coloured Mac.

Sporty Summer

The “All-American”  look is extremely popular at the moment, but sporty doesn’t have to mean trainers, as these New Look sports heels go to show! This lace up top is cute, and gives an essence of femininity to the American football style.

Festival Chic

With a large number of festivals hitting our country this year, music lovers should be prepared for all sorts of weather – but don’t be afraid to take your shorts and sandles! If the heavens do open up you can always continue to rock out in style with Internationale’s colourful Rain Parkas.

Summer Favourites - The Maxi Dress

Maxi Dresses are back in again this year – and whether you’re looking for an elegant or casual style, there’s a maxi dress to suit everyone!

Here are our top tips to finding your perfect dress...

If you are tall stick to wearing flats and gladiator sandles - if you have the height, use it to your advantage! There are a huge range of gorgeous dresses in a number of Piazza stores – including New Look’s embellished dress (£34.99), which is guaranteed to turn heads whetherat the pool on on a night out!

If you’re on the shorter side, why not try wedges to give you height and added elegance.  Choosing dresses with more structure will ensure you don’t look swamped by your outfit - waist bands are an excellent choice.  Bonmarche’s black and white (£20) and  animal print dresses (£39) could be the ideal look for you.

Those with broad shoulders or a large bust should avoid strapless Maxi’s - thicker straps give the illusion that your shoulders are smaller, balancing out your body proportions.
