Bold, beaded designs pack a punch and serve nostalgic memories of holidays by the sea. This year, fashion has been reborn with a youthful, playful spirit and this fun ‘90s revival goes hand in hand with a summer filled with energy and optimism. Candy-coloured beads evoke a joyous mood suited to partying in Ibiza but kitschy designs will uplift even the most grown-up of outfits, whatever your summer plans.

We’ll be wearing ours layered up and paired with our favourite swimwear whilst sipping Aperol on sandy shores, but we’ll take city dwelling with denim shorts and a tank top too.

Make your own if you’re feeling crafty, or shop a selection of fun designs below.

This fun summer accessory is an Instagrammable trend celebrities can’t get enough of.

The high street is full of affordable designs that add a punch of personality to even a simple white tee. But if your regular style errs on the side of boho, look to invest with brands such as Anni Lu, Missoma and Roxanne Assoulin. Stack up for a decolletage party of rainbow colours or wear alone for a subtle statement.
