Summer holiday season is in full swing and we’re all on the lookout for some stunning new outfits to take away with us on our travels. With most of us heading to some sunnier, warmer climes, finding pieces that are lightweight, breezy and comfortable are a must, and Zara McDermott has been giving us some major holiday outfit inspo.
The documentary maker recently headed to Mallorca for her summer holiday, and shared a series of snaps on Instagram showing what she packed for the trip. With plenty of bright colours and prints amongst her choices it was hard to pick a favourite, but if there’s one item we’ll be adding to our shopping bags pronto, it’s the £79 Yellow Floral Linen-blend Pippin Midi Dress from Nobody’s Child.

Available in sizes 4-18, the floral midi dress is the perfect choice for a sunny summer vacay. It’s made from a combination of 70% organic cotton and 30% linen, both of which are the ideal materials for a breezy summer dress as they’re breathable and help wick away sweat, keeping you cool and comfortable even in soaring temperatures.
As well as feeling great, the dress has the perfect summer-ready print with watercolour flowers covering every inch of it in a sunny yellow and green colour combination. It also has a chic silhouette that’s flattering on all body types whilst still being comfortable and easy to wear.
The fitted bodice has a sweetheart neckline and spaghetti straps which give it a tailored, expensive look and helps accentuate your figure. Meanwhilethe flowing midi-length skirt keeps it light and loose, with an A-line fit which skims over your hips and thighs and creates an hourglass silhouette.
If the floral print isn’t your thing, you can also snap up the linen-blend dress in dark navy or all white with a dainty floral print along the bust. Although Zara’s dress is definitely chic enough to be dressed up or down, if you’re looking for something a little more elevated for a summer event, Zara also shared a snap of herself in a gorgeous orange ruffled dress from House of CB.
The Pixie Ruffled Mesh Maxi Dress is a splurge at £189, but its vibrant zesty colour and figure-flattering fit make it perfect for destination weddings or more formal summer occasions. The ruffle trim details give it a luxe-looking edge as well as plenty of movement – perfect for donning your dancing shoes and hitting the dancefloor.
Thanks for the summer inspo Zara!
