Well, summer is officially here starting tomorrow, even though it’s felt like it this past week here in CT! This is the summer of traveling for me… not far, but I have a TON going on this summer between weddings, showers and bachelorette parties. I’ve already been to Dallas, Vegas, Nashville, The Hamptons just in the last month and a half and we’re JUST getting started. I’m off to Cape Cod this weekend and I realized I’m becoming a PRO at this packing thing. I’ve included some of my favorite summer must haves. These are my items that I couldn’t get through summer without (and that I’ve been packing and re-packing).
1. The perfect beach coverup is essential for the beach and pool and is even MORE amazing when you can double it as a tunic. This Melissa Odabash one from Canyon Beachwear is my favorite (I’ve been wearing it non-stop on Instagram). I’ve thrown it on with jean shorts and sandals or right over a bikini and you better believe it’s already packed for this weekend!
2. Mirrored sunnies are ALL the rage this season and if you haven’t picked up a pair yet, there are now so many to choose from! I love the classic Aviators… I have them in just about every color they make but I’ve been loving the Clubmasters as well. Those are on my summer wishlist!
3. A straw tote is a classic piece you’ll be able to wear year after year. This gorgeous Tory Burch tote is currently on sale, so snatch it before it’s gone. I have it in black and absolutely love it!
4. I’ve gone through a couple of panama hats over the last few years because I wear them out! I’m always the girl with the hat on… partially so that my part doesn’t burn and partially because I love how chic hats are! This hat gets packed everywhere I go!
5. Coral. Lips. I always get so excited when summer rolls around because of the lack of makeup I wear. Since the rest of my beauty routine is tame, I throw on a pop of color with a coral lip… this is my must-have beauty trick for summer! Urban Decay‘s BANG is hands down my favorite shade. It’s the perfect mix of orange and red and looks great with a summer tan!
6. I’ve been using Crest 3D White Toothpaste for ages and recently added the Brilliance Booster polishing treatment to my morning and night routine! White teeth are an absolute must for all these upcoming wedding photos I’ll be in!
Crest 3D White® Brilliance Toothpaste and Crest 3D White® Brilliance Boost are both designed to enhance your beautiful white smile. Working to amplify your smile like never before, the new collection showcases Crest 3D White’s® continual innovation in the whitening category.
