How are you all? We’re already well into May but before we go any further we’d like to look back over the month of April and tell you all about our highlights!

We’re on our way to the hot (positive thinking) summer months and we can’t wait to make the most of it! To bring you up to speed with what’s been going on over the past month, here are our favourite moments of April, so as always if you missed out, stay tuned!

Now as summer is approaching, we’re ready and raring to go with our beach wear, and this lovely feature in the Huffington Post showcases these gorgeous ladies having fun and making the most of the sun. It has definitely inspired us to get out there and rock our beach bods – you go girls!

We love seeing these body confident bikini bodies! After all a swimsuit is for everyone right ladies?! If you’re off jet setting this summer, why not send in your favourite snaps on holiday in your Simply Be swimwear!

Who’s heard of fashion stylist and blogger Marcy Guevara? A plus size stylist she gives body confidence advice to women and shows that no matter what size you are, you can always wear on-trend stylish clothes, there’s no rules, just wear what makes you happy – a mentality we totally agree with!

Here’s a lovely clip we found from her YouTube channel, The Marcy Minute:

Earlier in April we announced our ‘Design a t-shirt competition’ winner. The winning design was created by Deborah Abbott and chosen by our Facebook fans. We’re so excited to see the final product and can’t wait to show you all, so keep your eyes peeled for this exclusive t-shirt available to buy online at Simply Be soon!

Here’s the winning tee – we love the on-trend skull print and floral details!

If you missed out on the Blogger’s Take 5 challenge check them out here wearing our Project D London Carnegie strappy dress. The five gorgeous bloggers (pictured L-R); Amy, Emma, Lauren, Wendy and Georgina took this dress and styled it up in their own way! We love what they did and how they all made this dress look so different and versatile. Why not take inspiration and try mixing up your outfits in different ways!
