10 Chic Swimwear And Cover-Up Combinations To Elevate Any Holiday Look
Holiday season is upon us, and whether you're journeying somewhere far-flung or enjoying a break closer to home, you'll likely be considering your summer wardrobe. And while swimwear is set to be your most worn piece, packing some clever cover-ups will multiply your outfit combinations – and save some much-needed space in your suitcase. From billowing shirts to sarongs and crochet dresses, a cover-up transforms your outfit from beach-appropriate to one suitable for the bar, restaurant, gallery or museum in an instant. And with some of our favourite brands offering an array of chic co-ords, linen separates, cotton dresses and tie-up skirts, there's a poolside styling solution to suit everyone. And from a practical perspective, a cover-up will offer much-needed shade in a heatwave, or add a layer of warmth once the sun has set and you've enjoyed a day at the beach, pool or pond. The Y2K revival has seen the humble sarong trend once again, while trouser and shirt co-ords can be mixed and matched while you're away and easily reworked into a workwear wardrobe once you're home. We're now spoilt for choice for swimwear labels, with the likes of Hunza G, Monday and Fruity Booty joining perennial favourites Marks & Spencer, Boden and Heidi Klein to offer a variety of coverage and cuts, from string bikinis and bandeaus to supportive bra tops with underwiring, higher waisted bottoms or something sportier for lengths across the lido. When searching for a cover-up to wear with your chosen swimwear, look for pieces that can be repurposed for other occasions, and choose light fabrics such as cotton or linen that will easily roll up into a beach bag or tote. And though you may want to adhere to a tonal colour palette for a capsule wardrobe, clashing patterns is part of the fun. Below, our edit of the most versatile cover-ups and the bikinis and swimsuits to wear them with this summer and beyond. ELLE Collective is a new community of fashion, beauty and culture lovers.

Everything inside Liberty's beauty advent calendar 2025 – and where to pre-order now
We might be in the height of summer, but Liberty's advent calendar is already taking pre-orders for Christmas. 2025 marks 150 years of Liberty London, and the famed Regent Street department store is marking it with what could be its best-ever beauty advent calendar. The retailer's 25-day edit is – and has always been – a masterclass in luxury gifting, recognised for its collection of exceptional cosmetics from up-and-coming and established brands. Of course, there are sure to be more affordable advent offerings on the horizon, and plenty of brands across make-up and skincare like Sephora, Asos, and M&S will announce their Christmas collections in the coming months. Then again, Liberty is high on most beauty buffs' priority lists. This year, Liberty's prestigious calendar is worth more than £1,245. That's a £45 increase on 2024's offering and includes an extra two products and an additional two full sizes. For context, that's 30 items total, 20 of which are full-size, versus 28 total and 18 full-size last Christmas. There's make-up, skincare, fragrance, haircare and bodycare, and, as always, there's the chance to win one of 15 hidden £1,000 vouchers. That's another huge upgrade on 2024, as you're three times as likely to get lucky. Pre-orders open today, 2 July, for select customers (details below), so I've done some digging on everything you've got to look forward to.

Sali Hughes on beauty: bridal foundation tips for a flawless big day
I bristle at the expression 'bridal makeup', because it encourages the slightly weird idea that women's faces should look very different on their wedding days. Brides these days might be wearing black or red, hair up, hair down, hi-top trainers or Dr Martens boots. Similarly, bride-appropriate makeup is however one feels most attractive, comfortable, confident and oneself. The Guardian's journalism is independent. We will earn a commission if you buy something through an affiliate link. Learn more. But what I will concede is that the big day often calls for a new foundation. Rarely will you be photographed as much, over so many hours, and be faced with the outcome for so many years, so it's worth wearing something a little higher-coverage and longer-lasting than for a day at the office. Something semi-matte is ideal, since the opportunities to powder down shine will be scant and the risk of colour transfer on to a gown is higher with dewy formulas. My most commonly recommended is Lisa Eldridge's Seamless Skin Foundation (£44), which comes in 40 thoughtfully chosen shades and gives a pretty eggshell sheen to the skin. I've never received any negative feedback after the big day. Similarly versatile is Dior's Forever Skin Perfect Foundation Stick (£48). If your bridesmaid has room in her bag for anything more than mints and a lipstick, fill it with this, an exceptional medium-coverage solid foundation that melts silkily upon blending, laminating the face in soft, blurry, lasting coverage that can be sheered down or dialled up according to taste. It's also excellent for any fingertip touch-ups after the ceremony or wedding breakfast. Sign up to Inside Saturday The only way to get a look behind the scenes of the Saturday magazine. Sign up to get the inside story from our top writers as well as all the must-read articles and columns, delivered to your inbox every weekend. after newsletter promotion On dry skins, it's hard to beat the makeup artist's favourite, Armani's Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation (£47), which makes skin even, glowy (without any flatness or sparkle) and is deceptively natural-looking. That price tag is hefty, but a very similar look is delivered by True Match Nude Plumping Tinted Serum (£14.99) from Armani stablemate, L'Oréal Paris. For problem skins where redness, acne or scarring are an issue, proceed directly to Estée Lauder for the peerlessly camouflaging DoubleWear Stay-in-place Foundation (£39.50), which not only builds up seamlessly to cover anything, but has phenomenal staying power (add setting spray and it could outlast some marriages). For oily skin types who'd like a soft matte finish with more vim, I enthusiastically recommend Anastasia Beverly Hills' Impeccable Blurring Second Skin Matte Foundation (£39, pictured above). I didn't expect to love this, but even my own parched skin looks great in it, thanks to its flattering, almost vellum paper-like finish.
