I think it’s safe to say we have officially entered into summer. Personally, I love summer, especially in New York. It’s almost like a different city—everyone is excited to be out, the parks fill with people having picnics and enjoying summer Fridays, and it’s finally time to bust out all of the dresses that have been waiting for months for their time to shine. I love everything about summer—it means longer days with friends, upcoming vacations, wedding celebrations, rooftop events, and especially the opportunity to go to the beach.
Lately, when I’m doing my daily search for new arrivals from my go-to retailers, beach wardrobe items have been on my mind. I am loving all of the new Zara swimwear, and I’m really leaning into cute accessories for the beach like crochet sun hats and chic cover-ups. I’ve made a list of 30 beach-ready wardrobe items from Zara, Nordstrom, and Shopbop that I can’t wait to wear.
