Anyone else feel like we're living through an endless winter, RN? Across the UK, we've suffered through weeks of wind, rain and grey skies with temperatures barely creeping past 10 degrees Celsius. On the rare occasion we have been treated to a glimpse of sunshine in a blue sky, it has been fleeting at best. The only confirmation spring is indeed on the way is the fact the evenings are staying gradually lighter day by day – something that cannot be underestimated for how much joy it brings.
All that being said, it is never too early to start shopping for swimwear szn, IMO. Especially when all our fave celebs are jetting off to warmer climes and posting pics of their exotic vacays all over social media. *Cough* Olivia Rodrigo *cough* we're looking at you.
The artist took to Instagram to share a photo dump in honour of her birthday and amongst the super cute Peter Pan collar mini dresses and polka dot prints she was pictured wearing, O-Rod included a beach-side snap of herself rocking a plunging red swimsuit.
In her gorge beach attire, Olivia was giving Baywatch babe. Like, Pamela Anderson, is that you?
If you’re looking for a simple, sexy one-piece that’s (a) celebrity-approved, (b) available in loads of colours, and (c) costs £80 (and 25 pence – a price that's not to be sniffed at when it comes to supportive, substantial swimwear in today's economy), Olivia's got the perfect option for you: the So Chic One-Piece from swimwear brand, Gooseberry.
Now when we tell you legit every celeb out there owns this viral swimwear, we are not kidding. For instance, here is JLo rocking the same suit in white:
Sydney Sweeney sporting it in sage:
Kaia Gerber in rum:
And Olivia Munn in the pretty coral colourway:
The design is currently available in eight core colours (as well as an additional seven seasonal hues) and comes in sizes XS through XL. It’s also earned well over 1,400 5-star reviews thanks to its adjustable shoulder straps, sexy plunging neckline and high-cut, medium-coverage bottoms, which allow you to feel covered with *just* a hint of cheekiness.
Can’t wait to make this one-piece our whole personality this summer.
