My Style Monday: Summer Essentials




The summer season is upon us and I find myself gravitating toward easy summer essentials for everyday wear. There are so many textures and fabrics that call out to me during these months, but linen is by far my go-to summer essential. Sure, it gets wrinkly. It really, really does! And I don't iron that much so linen and I do have a love-hate relationship. That said, I love how I feel when I wear it. It's breathable, comfortable, and can usually be found as an option in any number of your favorite go-to wardrobe staple pieces. 

SHOP THE LOOK







This linen dress is for sure a summer essential. Super easy to style. It can be dressed up or down, and is perfect for everyday wear. Plus the price point is great! What's not to love? I styled this beauty with a few of my other favorites and was dressed and ready to go for my day of errands, work, and grocery shopping. 



Another summer essential is the perfect purse. This beach inspired bag is fully lined and has interior pockets. It also has a beautiful gold zipper! I think I get the most questions about this bag. It does look like a beach bag, but add it to your daily outfits and let the compliments roll in. Seriously a conversation piece. And who wouldn't want to talk about it, it's adorable. Plus it comes in a few colors...head over and shop! (coupon code below)  


My final summer essentials are a great hat, pair of sunglasses, and the perfect wedge sandal. I fell like I have an endless collection of these. Well not really, but you know what I mean. These are treasured categories to me. I am very good with sunglasses. I don't lose them or break them, some of my pairs are over 10 years old. So, I have a lot of those! And hats, oh my love, I am a collector! I rotate them often, but if it's a truly loved hat, I will have it to pass to my daughter one day. Same with the wedges. I pick up 1-2 pairs each year, and I rotate some of them often. These though, I've had for five summers now. I just love the color! 

I'm not here trying to get you to buy new items everyday. I certainly don't! But if you are going to shop, feel free to shop right from this post using my links! I'm trying to link more items that will actually be a great pieces for years to come or ones you wear into the ground. I'm here for that
