Summer is in full swing now and by this time of the year, the endless so-called-must-haves offer out there can be a bit overwhelming.
However, if you are anything like me, there is a good chance you kept forgetting to check your holiday bucket list purposely. (Did I comment on the fact that by the beginning of the month I had bought my SPF only? Because guys, that’s how lazy I am…) Well, I don’t know about you but spending all those fragrant breeze June evenings hunting for beach essentials felt like doing homework to me. And guys, holiday and homework don’t mix well together.
But back to the topic, July is here now and for most of us, that long-awaited trip to the sands is around the corner. Before you panic, don’t worry: Whether you are enrolling a cruise in the Mediterranean or dipping your toes in the crystal blue Maldives waters, I stopped procrastinating and surfed the internet for you to find the definitive beachwear essentials to upgrade your Summer game.
Looking for that French Riviera chic vacation vibe? I have you covered.
01. The boho girl beach style
Only few things can compare to the careless bohemian glamour – it is a bit like the fashion equivalent to instant soup allure, isn’t it? Channel your inner IT girl and voilá: ready to be invited to the V.I.P. lounge. No need to say this Camilla off-the-shoulder ruffled embellished printed swimsuit is plainly perfect.
(Rosantica beader wicker tote, Chloé sunglasses, Kenneth Jay Lane cuff, Aqquazura embellished sandals).
02. The vintage film diva look
When I was a kid, I used to daydream about becoming an Old Hollywood actress. Well, I might not be one but there is always the chance to wear this Norma Kamali halterneck swimsuit and play Gene Tierney in 1942 Rings in her Fingers. Cocktails anyone?
(Bow embellished slides by Prada, tote and shades by YSL, hat available here).
03. The ingénue in holiday wishlist
Personally? I LOVE everything Chelsea 28 produces but this Off the Shoulder Ruffle One-Piece Swimsuit is one of my favourites ever. It adds a note of romance to your look and is still casual, playful and wearable. Add the the Urban Outfitters marine hair clips to complete the mermaid vibe.
(Beach towel available at Fendi. Laminated sandals by CHANEL. Raffia bag here).
And these are my favourite 2019 Summer style essentials. Have you been shopping for the beach already? Any nice finds you would like to share?
I think the boho style is my favourite! x
I am glad to hear! Biho is a nice funny style and makes beach style effortless. I’d wish it would suit me!
Love, love these styles! These outfits screams summer and fashion all along. If I have to choose, I’ll pick the ingenue holiday look xx
Thank you so much for commenting. I get you: those UO hairclips shout beach time aloud. 😍 (Totally adding them to my collection asap).
