Do you know what one of the best feelings in the world is? When you’ve got your holiday bits all sorted. Passport in date? Of course. Bikinis all packed? Check. The perfect dress for your next holiday? I’ve got you covered.

After scrolling through TikTok for hours, looking at a million and one pins on Pinterest, and stalking all the fashion influencers, I’ve managed to find THE dress for your next holiday.

After a quick scroll on River Island (who are smashing it at the minute, by the way), I spotted their gold sequin maxi dress and I’ve basically been telling everyone and their mum that they need to buy it.

Why? Because despite the fact that it looks very expensive, it’s the fraction of the price of a designer dress. Stunning.

And the sequins alone are giving ✨ dressy vibes ✨ which means you don’t need to add any accessories and let’s be honest, isn’t that the best kind of outfit? You know, the ones where you don’t have to add anything to it, it’s already sorted for you.

Pair this gorgeous dress with some sunglasses, sandals and a cocktail in hand and hun, you’re good to go.

And whether you’re a mini dress or a maxi dress kinda gal, it’ll suit you because it’s basically two in one - while the inner lining is a mini dress, it’s the sequin details that’s maxi and gives that boujee look.

Oh and have I mentioned the open back? In the UK, you’ll probably catch a cold wearing an open back dress (even in the summer), but on holiday? The rules don’t apply when it’s 26 degrees in the evening.

The dress is currently trending on the website which means it’s going to sell out soon so make sure you buy it while it’s still in stock AND so you can tick one thing off your holiday to-do list.
