The first day of summer is right around the corner…are you ready? The perfect summer wardrobe includes much more than just breezy little dresses and cute cotton shorts. It’s time to stock up on fashion-forward, fun-in-the-sun accessories: sun blockin’ cover-ups, shade-makin’ hats, and skin protectin’ beach towels! Let’s shop!
Moving from head to toe, let’s start at Proper Topper in Dupont Circle. Anna Fuhrman’s sweet little shop carries everything from brightly colored structured straw visors, to great big floppy beach hats. While you’re there, pick up a couple of neutral-tone, handwoven turkish towels and a flashy pair of black and cherry oversized shades!
Umbrellas are not just for wet, rainy days! At Kassie Rempel’s Simply Soles pick up a Marimekka Blue Unikko Umbrella by Kenlo-Marimekko to keep the sun’s harsh rays off of the sensitive skin on your face and decolletage. We’re also loving the Shoe Shuttle – a thick, soft, quilted bag designed to schlep an extra pair of shoes with you for your beach to happy hour transition!
And finally, we need something to carry it all in! We love the silk screened canvas Stephanie Tote from Fornash.com. It’s big enough to carry your fave fashion rag, water bottle, wallet and cover-up, and the plastic covered canvas is perfect for the beach – sturdy and easy to clean!
