We could all use a few tips for hitting the beach now and again, and ITV did a fabulous feature last week on swimwear for fuller figured women (big is beautiful beachwear). Featuring some of the top contestants and the winner from a new plus size pageant (Miss BBW United Kingdom) the feature looked at accessorising and finding your perfect swimwear / beach cover up with stylist John Scott!

You might catch a glimpse of some lovely Marisota styles in both the video and in the article like the fab Miraclesuit and this stunning Kaftan.

they really couldn’t be better for getting a little late summer sun!

You can watch the full video on the ITV website and you’ll find all the lovely Marisota products they mentioned at Marisota.co.uk.

We think the girls looked fantastic and have to admit my miraclesuit is one of my summer staples!

Lots of love

Now we can’t all afford to go blowing £100+ on handbags (as much as we’d love to) so I’ve picked out my absolute favourite mid range bags from the new Marisota collection.

This bright and cheerful Santiago Shopper Bag by Fiorelli is ideal for injecting some much needed colour into your autumn wardrobe. It’s just £55 and features pretty floral detailing to the front.

This lovely leather frame bag is a great alternative if you want a more muted tone. It’s available in purple (more of a mulberry shade than anything else) or black and will match your autumn/ winter colour palette perfectly! Add a tweed jacket, A line skirt and heels for a classic professional look! It would also look fabulous with the Arlene Phillips fashion range as the majority of her collection comes in complimentary shades - perfect!

If there’s one thing  every woman needs it’s a variety of gorgeous handbags! This week we’ll be focusing on the best bags at Marisota.co.uk. I’m taking the splurge options, they can be found in the Marisota online exclusives section where you’ll find lots more goodies that are only available from the website!

Blow the budget

For those days when only the best will do!

Best Grab Bag

This stunning Cheet London grab bag features gorgeous “crunch” leather in caramel tan (also available in grey and blue) and knot detail. It’s definitely a “splurge” at £179 but sooo worth it! I love the vintage look and see thi9s with tweed trousers, a tucked in fitted shirt and tan heels!

Best Shoulder Bag

This gorgeous shoulder bag by Modula Gaudi is perfect for high class nights on the town. It comes in a sumptuous cream leather and features chain detail to the strap and a bow to the shoulder. Wear it with an LBD, cream heels and a smooth chignon for perfect retro chic! It’s £155 and worth every penny plus I think it would go perfectly with Arlene Phillips’ clothing collection here at Marisota!

Enjoy, Jenny will be along tommorow with the best mid range bags - not quite the same splurge but gorgeous styles in premium fabrics - Divine!
