Hello Summer.


Every summer has a story...every summer also has essential wardrobe pieces.

Since I am referred to as the mermaid and identify with having an earthy, boho vibe my summer essentials are pretty minimal I like things that I can throw on but still look complete. No fuss is a must and sometimes the standard shorts and t-shirt get old so here are my 5 summer must haves for every girl no matter what your style is!

  1. A Maxi dress; this is a staple for me. I like something I can throw on and go. Maxi dresses offer a no fuss, no thought put together look. Add your own twist either a basic solid color dressed up with a necklace or go for a fun all over print! Whatever you do make it your own.  
  2. Birkenstocks! I am obsessed with the jesus sandal look and earthy vibe these offer versus a basic flip flop. These are a must have and once you break them in they only get better. They have a few different styles available but the classic ones are perfection. Add a fresh pedi with bright summer toes and you are set!
  3. A statement clutch! I don’t like big heavy bags for summer I just need something for my keys, chapstick, credit card, and phone. A clutch is a fun easy way to jazz up an outfit so go for a bright color or a print that suits your style.
  4. Sunglasses duh! I love my classic aviators (I have 3 pairs whoops!) Find a frame that suits your face shape and go for classic colors black, brown, tortoise. I splurge on sunglasses because I wear them everyday but if you don’t want to break the bank Target, TJ Maxx, and Nordstrom Rack always have a fab selection.
  5. Distressed boyfriend jeans. I hate wearing shorts all the time. Boyfriend jeans are a fun easy way to stay cool in summer while looking stylish. Add a crop top, your Birkenstocks, sunnies, and grab a clutch and you are golden!

Enjoy!
