As Spring arrives and the evenings get lighter, all around people begin to get excited for summer, but what happens when you unwillingly become a part of a percentage of people that sun actually poses a threat to? I love the sunshine, the feeling of warmth of your skin and summer evening sunsets and I'm determined not to let Melanoma effect me any further going forward. So I have started to collect my favorite inspirations to be safe in the sun, something which we all should take note on, unfortunately being 'Sun safe' is often considered difficult and not a priority when it comes to looking good. I have set out to prove that sun safe does not mean 'sun-less'. I certainly wont be hiding come the summer months but I do intend to remain conscious of it; so here is my little bit of 'sunshine style' inspiration for those who want to do the same...
Loose cottons and UV parasol...
A shady retreat under retractable canopies...
Wide-brimmed summer hat from ASOS, take your pick!
UV Protective Sun Scarves from Bloxsun
Wide frame sunglasses to protect those pretty eyes.
UV protective gloves from Bloxsun, the sun's rays can get through car windscreens too!
Beach safe rash guard from J Crew
UNIQLO produce a wide range of UV basics
THE best sunscreen, feels light and can go up to factor 100. Also comes in a face lotion and spray for easy application.
Parasol protection on the sand.
Long sleeve Kaftan Cottons.
Now are you excited for sunshine?
