Over the two years that swayed by sooner than we imagined, there were many getaways that we fancied, planned and definitely cancelled. From planning trips half a year in advance, we now only ideate within a fortnight or two. And considering the less-than-thirty days we have on the threshold, we start planning our outfits, so much in detail that we observe what celebrities are choosing for their vacations.
To be honest, we’re excited for the little things, like the sneakers we’ll don at the airport or the satin dress we’ll slip onto at night. But there are a plethora of fashion pieces that are required in the middle of your morning flight and bedtime dress, and if you’re hitting a seaside, it means you need to pack multiple chic separates. Most important of all, could be your swimwear.
This year, we’re bidding farewell to all that’s unmanageable – ruffled swimsuits or skirted, ribbon tie ups and sleeves that we chanced upon in the past seasons. We don’t need to remind you that it’s overbearingly hot, but we’ll remind you that the perfect swimwear could be hard to find.

If the perfect swimwear for you is a backless one, similar to what Janhvi Kapoor wore, you can style it with layered necklaces and bracelets. This can also make you transition from the waves of the salty sea to the techno party at the nearest shack – just wear denim shorts below and platform sandals.

A strapless monokini for a sunny day sounds perfect. Priyanka Chopra is photographed in a bright yellow one with white accents completing her look – a hat and a shrug. You can take a long walk along the beach in this breezy outfit.

If you heart prints, this could inspire your shopping spree. Jacqueline Fernandes is seen wearing a leopard print monokini in royal blue featuring narrow adjustable straps and a plunging neckline.

Sun-kissed Sara Ali Khan opted for a print of pastel florals. Her swimsuit featured a large cut out in the centre. Pair a printed monokini with linen pants for a meal before you reach the beach.

Vaani Kapoor is seen wearing a noodle-strap monokini with asymmetrical cut outs. We like how it’s partly covered with a knitted mini skirt.

A one-shoulder monokini is an option you can consider as well. Ananya Panday is captured in a geometrical black-and-white one layered with a neutral shirt before she ported to the poolside. Multi-purpose it as a top tucked into high-waist jeans.
