Travel






Travel
Peak holiday season is almost upon us. Here at Madia & Matilda we want to share our go-to holiday outfits as well as some nifty tips.

Plain and simple
Opt for minimal pattern to achieve effortless style. We live the M+M Tess - dress for this reason. Not only is it comfortable enough for that long haul flight, its fun tie-back design ensures just the right amount of flair to be suitable for all occasions.

Creative combos

Mix and match items for maximum versatility. Our top picks from Madia & Matilda are the Phoebe - contrast panel skirt and the Lisa May - tank top. Block colours work best for this but patterns could be introduced with accessories.




Pre-plan outfits
we cannot stress how important it is to make sure you have already planned out your outfits to wear on holiday, we have previously often thrown a load of summer clothes into my suit case and arrived on holiday with no assembled outfits.

Take minimal accessories
You won’t want to turn up on holiday with 100’s of accessories, just try to take accessories that will co ordinate well with your outfits, sunglasses a must!

Take clothes that are durable for travel

It is a pain when you’re travelling and your clothes get damaged, so too avoid this make sure to not take clothes that are already damaged and take clothes that will be right for what you plan to do whilst travelling.











Try to avoid taking a huge amount of beauty products                                      
If you’re planning to wear makeup during your travels, try not to avoid taking most of your beautystash, try taking a makeup palette that includes eye shadow, lipstick and blush instead of taking those individual products.

3 Essential pieces from our S/S 16 collection



This floral t-shirt dress a piece that would look great in everyone’s wardrobe. Pair it with chunky rose gold jewellery as it is a key trend for S/S 2016, try this dress with chunky knit tights on those colder spring days.






                          







   






Blush coloured blouse - Elise Linen Top, with a laid back carefree look, this top gives an effortless style paired with our Natalie trousers and some lace up heels, I also think the Natalie trousers are another essential for spring summer, as they coordinate well with many pieces from this collection.
