The Only Way Is Essex star has released her new Street Edit range, and admits it's her "best one yet" despite the drama surrounding her relationship with Pete Wicks.

Revealing the statement pieces she can't leave the house without, Megan told us: "I always pack a long kaftan and a big pair of wedges to glam up my swimsuit look."

Talking about her bikini style, she added: "My bikini style is a swimsuit, it's not all about how much skin you show it's about the way you wear it."

And preparation is key to looking good of course, with the brunette beauty admitting she always gets a "base tan and a good blow dry", and flies with her hair in pin curls.

Megan also revealed why she decided to switch her look up ahead of filming, after deciding to get rid of her fashionable bangs.
