Tropical/Floral Prints
Whether it be flora or fauna or a dramtic mix of both, prints are splashing an explosion of colour all over #Summer2020.
Slides and sandals
These are staples for Jamaicans right throughout the year, but are especially useful during the summer months. Whether it be a walk on the beach, a backyard BBQ or a strappy pair to show off a fresh pedi, slides and sandals are the ultimate summer must-haves.
Bags (crossbody for the gents and fun totes for the ladies)
It’s 2020 and men wear bags, and we don’t just mean on the runways! American rappers drove the trend and it has picked up traction in Jamaica. Worn on the shoulder or cross-body, the mini-bags are trending this summer. The women, on the other hand, remain boho chic as they tote fun, oversized bags around.
Sun hats
Not only do sun hats look great on the ‘Gram, but they’re also a chic form of protection from harmful UV rays.
Colourful swimsuits and swim trunks
Light up the beach or the pool in vivid-coloured swimsuits and swim trunks this summer.
