The Summertime List

Whether your favorite summertime leisure activity is hiking, going to the beach or a picnic. I have a list of all your must-haves to pack in your chic, trendy woven basket bag for your favorite summer activities. Some of my summers must haves I never leave the house without are: a pair of slides, healthy snacks like refreshing fruits and fun drinks to stay hydrated like coconut water and some jewelry pieces for when my outfit needs another detail.

When I’m heading to the beach or on a picnic I also add sunscreen, a hat, skinny cat eye sunglasses, my favorite summer read and a bold bright cover-up. When I’m laying out in the sun I always apply some restorative conditioner to my hair to keep it hydrated and UV protected. Does anything sound more perfect? I set up my towel, small umbrella and soak up the sun in my cute one-piece suit while reading a summer novel.

For days when I’m running around downtown I’ll throw on last fall’s striped oversized button up shirt, belt it and complete the look with a pair of slides and my go-to summer basket bag. I love this look because it’s beach to chic! On a busy like this I’ll make sure I have a cool lip gloss like Kopari to keep my lips protected and moisturized from the dry warm winds in the city
