Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Thought holiday packing was about throwing any old cossie and a sarong in a suitcase? Think again. Swimwear has seriously upped its game in recent years with an entirely separate set of trends to follow and for sprint/summer 2015 sports luxe is one of the biggest.

Look out for high tech fabrics like neoprene, statement details like oversized zips and athletic accessories from visor hats to wraparound sunglasses which will add a touch of sportiness to your seaside style.

First stop on the shopping circuit is swimwear brand Triangl, which has become the go-to brand for shoppers after the game-ready aesthetic on a modest budget.
