Bardot Holiday Vibes

Fashion - By Alexandra Stedman

Bardot as holiday inspiration is something that comes up every year…but this summer it feels even more relevant. I styled this shoot back in February (!) but could already see BB’s influence on the sumer scene. Big pant swimwear, polka dots and cat eye sunglasses are everywhere at the moment. And as I am STILL yet to go on my big summer holiday (it’s not until September for me), I need to stockpile now.
