8 Beach Trip Essentials
1 Coverups // One thing is for certain, you can never have enough coverups. I love them in many styles, however J.Crew just added a new coverup to their vacation collection and I’m smitten. What I love about this particular coverup is that it dubs as a cute dress to wear while lounging by the pool.
2 Straw Bags // The same goes for straw bags! You can never have enough. Yes, I admit I have a ridiculous amount of straw bags, however I can always find a bag to go with any vacation look and ladies the truth is they never go out of style. In fact, this Gaia Mini Ark handbag made a come back last year after first hitting the market in the 1970’s!
3 Chic Shades // Many of us own more than one pair of sunglasses and I just may have to add another to the mix. How cute are these Gucci shades?
4 Gold Sandals // Every spring and summer, you can expect to see the cutest gold sandals on the market. It’s plain and simple; gold sandals look amazing on everyone!
5 The One Piece // Last summer I learned to embrace the one-piece while on the cruise and I really loved the way it looked. J.Crew just added this one-piece swimsuit and I’m adding to my cart as we speak.
6 Essie Fiji Nail Polish // I would guess that Fiji is the top selling nail polish shade at Essie. I’ve been wearing it for years and it’s still my favorite!
7 Classy Sneakers // I’m a lover of stylish sneakers. I could wear them everyday. I have quite a few of them in my closet, except for these beauties. They would be perfect for a beachy getaway!
8 L’Occitane // I’m a huge fan of L’Occitane and just ordered this lovely scented hand cream, which you definitely need while on vacation. If you’ve never tried this line, you must! Click here to explore this exquisite french line of beauty products.
