Postcard-Perfect Packing List: Croatia

Croatia continues to seduce an adventure-seeking crowd. Boasting waterfalls, vineyards, and forests, not to mention charming villages and towns packed with cultural things to do, there’s truly something (and somewhere) for everyone.

A surprising destination with more than 1,200 islands and islets, Croatia is perfect for a sailing trip. With a nautical nod, this Heidi Klein bikini is just the ticket for a day of sunbathing, snorkelling, and swimming. The super-sculpting bra, with hidden boning, and waist-whittling high-rise briefs are ultra-flattering, offering an unparalleled fit.

A richly diverse country, to ensure you’re kitted out for all occasions whilst in Croatia it’s imperative you pack versatile pieces that work from day-to-night. Think breezy dresses which can easily be thrown on over swimwear following a day at the beach, and also look effortlessly chic for al-fresco dinners. ALEMAIS’ floral embroidered dress is particularly mood-boosting, whilst D’Ascoli’s diaphanous silhouette is the very definition of relaxed luxury.

Considering versatile accessories that work with multiple outfits will save a lot of room in your suitcase too. Think about adding cream – a palette-cleansing hue, and a summer-appropriate neutral of choice – to proceedings. This See By Chloé bag is pleasingly compact and perfect for stowing the day’s essentials. Meanwhile, Hereu’s practical yet chic fisherman sandals are ludicrously comfortable, cradling feet in pillowy-soft leather as you explore the cobbled streets.

Finally, there’s something about being on holiday that just makes your jewellery look so much better. Isabel Marant’s playful hoops festooned with resin-dipped charms will add a substantial note of glamour to any outfit.
