Guess what? You can have it all.
“You CAN shop Black-owned and stay on budget!”

Meet The Vacation Ready Couple
The ones who look like they just threw something on yet somehow still hit the mark every time.
Let’s build the look.
Step 1: The Glow Up (Skin & Hair)
Before the fits, we need the base. Healthy skin and hair are the foundation of any outfit.
Hydrated skin? Check. Smells divine? Also check. This multipurpose oil is main character energy in a bottle.
A leave-in that keeps curls, coils, and locs soft and moisturised? Whether you’re rocking twist-out, waves or a sleek ponytail, Kreyol Essence has got something for you.
Step 2: The Main Character-Outfits
Now for the part you’ve been waiting for. The look!

The sun is finally here, and it’s vacation season. This vacation set from Shop Mona is perfect for the girls who love bold, comfy and stylish. Alternatively, if you love to be fashionably comfortable, this Betty set is to The One ($45). Both outfits are comfy enough to live in, run errands or style it up for dinner.
[Very Lovely Shoes San Juan Sandals - $40]
Ethically made, insanely comfortable, and effortlessly cool for lounging and exploring.

The Heathe Noctal Shirt in red is a bold, modern statement piece with a sleek hidden placket and oversized pockets for effortless style. Its tailored yet relaxed fit drapes perfectly, making you look sharp without even trying.
A relaxed yet tailored fit from Akiba Studios. We love a guy who looks put together without trying to look put together.
[ Kiing Davids Reflect Shandals- £100]
The perfect fusion of sandals and shoes. The Reflect Shandals offers both comfort and style for any occasion.
Step 3: The Finishing Touch- Accessories
Hers
[Abundance Sunglasses - $80]
Because no look is complete without a little mystery. These Coco and Breezy Eyewear frames are the perfect accessories for that complete summer look (without the price tag).
[Dahlia Studs - $22]
A little bling never hurts. Shop from one of MBG’s approved, Orun Jewellery. These are lightweight but make a serious impact and transition perfectly from day to night. If you’ve got some spare change, throw in the Lumina ring for just £8.
[Ikwetta Kikoy Beach Bag - $41]
The perfect accessory to complete the beach day look. For a night out, try the Box Clutch Mini Gold bag from Zashadu for $65. Okay, technically over budget, but if she convinces him to buy it for her, it doesn’t count, right?
His
[Vontélle Shades - $100]
Sleek, stylish, and giving “yes, I know I look good.”
