Aug 27 Aug 27 SUMMER STAPLES FOR THE BEACH Naomi Manu SUMMER STAPLES FOR A BEACH VACATIONSTRAW HAT A summer hat is one of the pieces every lady needs in her closet for the summer months. They can be made of straw or wool. They are needed when one decides to have a relaxing vacation at the beach. Summer is noted for hot sunshine and very humid temperatures. Hence having a summer hat does not only make one look stylish but also protect your face from sunburn. I would advise having at least 2-3 different styles.Attached is where to find a similar hat2. ONE-PIECE SWIMSUIT A one -piece swimsuit is a must in every elegant ladies closet. Aside it being stylish, I believe it covers most of the body parts compared to two piece Bikini swim set. I personally prefer swimsuits to two pieces because they easily give an aura of graciousness while at the beach and not very vulgar as some swim sets. Again, they are very comfortable especially for people who are not comfortable at their mid section of their body. I would recommend having at least 2-3 of one-piece swimsuit in your closet in classic colors that can be worn over and over again.Attached is where to find a similar Swimsuit3. A PAIR OF SUNGLASSES Sunglasses are a must have in summer months. It is not just fashionable but also protect your eye from the sun rays that might be harmful to your sight. Every elegant lady must have a sunglass and I normally wear mine not only vacations but all the time. It is also very important in times when you do not have your make-up done but have to run an errand. It hides all the tired eyes and makes it safe to continue to have your confidence while you move around. A pair of sunglasses in different styles and color are available. And as I always advice, go for the classic ones with little or no embellishment. It doesn’t have to be a designer wear, you can definitely find some quality ones on the high-street markets.

This is because it gives you option to either cover-up especially when you want to grab a drink from the bar. I personally prefer a flowy chiffon or a linen shirt cover-ups because I think they are chic and elegant. If you are someone who loves to go for beach vacations , then have extra ones in different colors. Some swimsuits also come with their own cover-ups and I think those are also very stylish.

Wicker bags are very essential in may ways not only as a beach bag but it is a necessity at the beach . Having a beach bag helps in organizing your items in a one place. You are able to have even food and drinks packed in your bag to the beach as well as your beach towels and other essentials sun as sunscreens. Hence ladies, there are diversity in sizes, shapes and styles so go for it and enjoy your beach vacation. Loewe bag Another form of beach bag that is popular are the fabric forms. For those I would advice to go for high-end ones since they are not aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Having a high-end one from Chanel, Dior and others elevate the look and you are assured of it lasting for a longer period of time. Chanel beach bag6. SLIDES OR SLIPPERS Slippers are very convenient at the beach if you do not want to walk bare-footed or want a quick drink in the bar or walk around. I would advice to go for very durable ones since in the beach it is inevitable to come into contact with water. Hermes slippers are my favorite but there are really nice ones in high-street shops.

It can be tied to you hat, use as a top or a cover-up or tied to your beach bag. Mostly people prefer to tie to the neck when they wear very basic colors for a pop up color. Scarves when used correctly are chic and very beautiful. I like colorful and bright colored scarves because they blend well with different classics. Hermes scarf Leave a comment
