Vacation outfits help

I always look really frumpy and tattered on our holidays and for once in my life I would like to look a bit more chic.

I've been looking online and feeling very overwhelmed with the amount of products that come up and nothing feels quite right from what I've looked at so far.

We're off to a warm weather holiday soon (30C) and I'm looking for some chic pieces both for beach and days/evenings (tops, skirts, shorts, dresses etc.) and a swimsuit/bikini and coverup that could help me look a bit mote stylish and feel good about myself.
Ideally they last long and become my staple/capsule holiday wardrobe.

I'm short - so things like maxi dresses look like a bridal gown train on me.
I also have a bigger bust and probably a few pounds heavier than I should be for my frame.

I'm not a fan of polka dots (if it's relevant at all).

Ideally also looking for natural fibres where possible.

Please help me S&B gurus!

I got some matching sets from Amazon for my recent vacation. A mix of tops, shorts, cuffed & wide leg pants. All cotton. They are all pretty plain/simple pieces, but because they're matching, I think they look really stylish and put together.

Ooh! What do I need to put in the search bar to have a loon at these?

I think I just searched women's matching sets

Look at Aspiga
(Chose Resort to filter)

Personally I always like khaki trousers/shorts/skirt and crisp white shirt/seersucker/T shirt with gold accessories- don't think you can beat that for a classy put together look on holiday

I have also got a few pieces from Charli which have lasted years- although it's a bit early in the season you could have a look.
I have this outfit but wear with black Birkenstocks and a row of seed pearls and looks very put together
