Happy Thursday, ladies! I'm writing you from Tybee Island. I've been traveling a lot lately, which is nice. Good to stay busy and active. If you're interested, you can follow me along on Instagram. Weather is warm and perfect for laying out by both the pool and the beach. So much so, that I was particularly inspired to share more summer essentials.

5 More Summer Essentials
1. White Dress
The humble cousin to the little black dress, don’t underestimate the power of the little white dress. It’s easy, effortless, and perfect for a hot summer day.
A dress is one and done. just add your favorite accessories, and you’re ready to walk out the door. A white dress will always make my top summer wardrobe essentials list.

2. Swimsuit
What’s better on a hot summer day than a dip in the pool? Some of us have an allergic reaction to summer swimsuits, but who wants to miss a day spent by the ocean, lake, or pool?
Honestly, you don’t need a beach bod to lounge poolside. All you need is a cute swimsuit! today, we’re stepping into summer with summer swimsuits.

3. Cover-Up
Coverups are also easy to pair with one-pieces especially. Go for a sarong, gauzy dress, oversized tee, or hoodie. The choice is yours. (And don't forget your hat; it's a must-have for a beach vacay.)

I can never resist adding the beloved striped tee to my top summer wardrobe essential list. I've said this many times before: every year, I add one or two more striped tees to my wardrobe. Why? They’re sporty and chic and go with shorts, skirts, pants, and denim. the list is exhaustive.

A summer print shirt can be casual and chic, and it goes with so many things. Don’t be afraid to add patterns to jazz up your summer neutrals. Really, just have fun, fun, and more fun with these.

In Case You Missed It
This morning, Kelly did a deep dive into her favorite budget brands. Click the title or image below to read the article.
I wish whatever brand originally manufactured some of your clothes would issues a “SACA” label and offer those timeless, classics again! Especially the white dresses that are shown with the brown belt. The links are close but . . .
YOU ARE LOOKING SO FAB! Love your post. THANKS AND CHEERS.
