Luxury accommodation, gourmet food, an ever changing view, and plenty to do or time to completely relax –it's not surprising that cruises are so popular. The UK is second only to the USA in choosing to holiday afloat. And one of the great advantages, especially with cruises which start from Southampton, is that you are not limited to an airline luggage allowance.

For a few months now, we have been asking our customers where they're going on holiday this year. Europe is still popular, despite the exchange rates, and the U.S. is also doing well. Cruises are very strong, providing the opportunity to relax in ever changing surroundings. However, one of the most surprising destinations we have discovered is Dubai.

Choosing a fabulous swimsuit, which really fits, works for your shape, emphasizes your best features and makes you feel confident, is a wonderful experience. That's what we love about working at Beach & Body- helping women look good and feel great on holiday. But there are lots of situations where you also need a cover-up, to go from pool to cruising lunch, sunbed to beachside bar, or simply to protect your skin in the middle of the day.

Many of my customers ask me which sun cream I recommend, and why. There are so many available, with competing, and sometimes confusing features, that it can be hard to choose the right one. I personally tried lots of brands, I asked people what they wanted from a sun cream, and what they didn't want.
Bring on the curvy girls!

I read some fascinating research the other day that said the British woman's average bra size has moved from a 34B to a 36D. And increasingly, it's not just about inches, it's about shape as well. Now the swimwear designers are working using 3D shape data to produce better fitting bathing suits –hurray!
Beach shoes don't have to be boring!

When the sand is too hot, or the pebbles too sharp, you know that beach shoes are not a luxury but a necessity. Cheap flip-flops are functional, but they don't last and sadly, look just that, cheap. It's a real shame to waste a good pedicure by displaying your feet in substandard footwear.
We're in the news!
