Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill has provided some serious holiday inspiration in her latest Instagram post. The retired British track and field athlete shared a series of snaps of herself with her family on social media, looking stunning in a green and white swimsuit.
If you are still frantically searching for the perfect swimwear for the upcoming holiday season then look no further. Brilliant green contrasted with white makes this piece both stylish and flattering, and if you are wondering, what colour suits me, then mood-boosting bright colours, such as greens, are a great place to start.
Jessica also wore a gorgeous monochrome gingham smock dress, styled with gold sandals and sunglasses, another look to take summer inspiration from. Smock dresses are great option if you are looking for stylish dresses which hide a tummy.
