Designed to wear over your swimsuit top, it’s soft as your favorite tee and incredibly lightweight - even while wearing it in the water! 'It’s not just for swimming though. It also works as a colorful cover-up when the air turns cooler or you’re just looking to shade your skin.' 2. FOLDABLE WELLIES . Heading to a festival?

With wedding season fast approaching, finding a stylish yet practical dress for day-to-night celebrations is no mean feat. One company thinks it has wedding season fashion cracked, with a range of stylish and practical clothes  that claim to regulate your body temperature by keeping you warm when it's cool and cool when it's warm. Within their 'cool range', Hotsquash.com uses fabrics with CoolFresh technology woven through the seams, which is designed to work with your body temperature and keep you cool in the warm months. HotSquash.com has designed a range of stylish and practical clothes that claim to regulate your body temperature by keeping you warm when it's cool and cool when it's warm . The designer's say the technology used in their dresses and tops helps minimise clamminess with breathable fibres and wicks away moisture much quicker than wool or cotton. The larger surface area of the fibres in their garments apparently allows for faster evaporation by speeding moisture away from the skin to the surface of the fabric where it can evaporate quickly. Clothes designed for colder months, however, have ThinHeat fabrics built in for enhanced warmth. The makers claim that these fabrics keep you twice as warm as wool or cotton. 'Our fabric is inspired by nature, polar bears to be precise,' they say. 'Their fur has "hollow" hairs to keep them warm, we mirror this effect with engineered hollow-core fibres that trap air for greater insulation.'
