I know I should be writing reams about beanies and knits because it’s freezing in London right now, but I just can’t get Mauritius’ turquoise beaches out of my mind.
These photos are from a day at Belle Mare beach. It was a day that was a complete blur of wind-tangled hair, hammocks, sparkling sun through the palms, flowers, fresh coconuts, and bare feet on sand.
I’m wearing a roomy crochet kimono that works perfectly as a beach cover-up. I’d love to tell you this is a meditated outfit, but I would be lying. Truth be told I just put together everything that screams sun-laden tropical paradise in one outfit – crochet, neon bracelets, mirrored aviators, and a neon satchel. It’s really that simple 🙂
Outfit Details :-
Bracelets – DIY (They’re actually shoe laces 😉 )
Kimono Top – H&M (similar here)
Neon Satchel – ASOS (similar here)
Sunglasses – ASOS (I wore the same ones while gallivanting in sugarcane fields in Mauritius)
Do you guys love beaches as much as I do??
If you, like us, have a soft spot for beach fashion and sun-hazed locales, you must check out one of our favourite bikini cover-ups and read our Guide to packing for the Beach.

Lovely post, made me all warm and fuzzy inside… please summer come back!
You stole the words from my mouth Agata 🙂
What a lovely post and so unexpected as you say, given the weather at the moment. You look lovely and those bracelets are perfect for the beach!
Thanks Erica. The weather is indeed dreary at the moment, but the festive cheer makes this time of the year fun for me 🙂
Oh me too! I love Christmas time!
Oh I now want to go away I’m not a huge fan of hot weather but seeing your beautiful pictures has made me want a holiday xx
Jade I’m not a big fan of really hot weather either, but Mauritius was just right at this time of the year 🙂

Thanks Ramya. As for packing a bag and taking off, do it – you won’t regret it 🙂
Wow love those pictures! Currently sitting in a freezing office in sunny Mumbai, but I still felt the warmth of the beach. Haha!
Great idea with the shoe laces!
Thanks Roxanne. If it’s any consolation, I wrote this post whilst sitting in London, which is grey and dreary at the minute 🙁
Wow this place looks like pure paradise and I love your easy, chic and stylish beach style – such great photos and wonderful and inspiring post

Love this post! The beaches are stunning, the water is amazingly blue and of course, your outfits are perfect! That’s the perfect bathing suit cover-up. I love how you use shoelaces for bracelets, what a great idea. Something I never would have thought to do.
