Beach Bag Essentials
What Are We Wearing?
The official kickoff of Summer is here as we roll into Memorial Day weekend. No matter your plans, you want to have your essentials on deck wherever the weekend takes you. Here are some of my top picks to have ready for your beach bag this weekend.
An obvious splurge but worth the investment, in my opinion. This gorgeous YSL RIVE GAUCHE canvas tote gives us all the high fashion vibes but still feels nautical and cool for the Summer. Pack this bag with your essentials for the weekend, at the beach, on a boat, and beyond. This classic design will provide years and years of wear and is the chicest finish to your Summer style.
A packable straw sun hat is a must for the weekend and the entire Summer. This Felix hat by Janessa Leone goes with every look for daytime, provides comfort and lasting sun protection, and will easily fit in your beach bag or carry-on. The packable design allows for durability and keeps its shape all day and night, no matter where it sits.
I always recommend my clients opt for a few fabulous coverups that can transition and be worn as dresses. This year, I love all the crochet looks we are seeing from brands. The crochet fabric hugs the body and feels soft, comfy, and lightweight. Keep this beauty on poolside with your favorite aviator sunnies and a sporty sandal, or add a heel and hoops for dinner in the evening. You will get many repeat wears as well as compliments from these coverups throughout the season.
An effortlessly chic white tank is my go-to year-round. For the weekend plans, you’ll want one or a few handy to add to denim, shorts, or a wrap skirt. They are easy to layer and look so classic. I love the higher neck on this one by Madewell with wide-leg linen pants and slides.
Don’t forget the most important accessory, your skin! Protect yourself and your lips with these expert-recommended sunscreen and lip balm by SuperGoop.
