I have to admit, summer is my favorite season. I even rank it before fall (iiiiii know). But for me, there’s nothing better than easy, breezy dresses and sandals. Plus a summer beach house and living in a bathing suit all summer doesn’t hurt this ranking as well. I also think it’s funny how my summer wardrobe drastically differs from my fall wardrobe. Summer brings out my inner prep (whites, navy’s, & hot pink – everywhere) but when fall hits, I embrace the trendy New Yorker inside of me (black, neutrals, grays – you get it). So in support of my summer, warm weather obsession, today I bring you my must-have navy essentials. Because let’s be honest, who doesn’t love white and navy in the summer? And in the form of stripes? Even better.

Let me introduce this killer swimsuit from Tory Burch. I’m always on the lookout for new swimsuits and try to stay away from your classic Victoria Secret buys, so branching out when it comes to swimsuit season is key for me. Speaking of Tory, this portofino jumpsuit? It has my name written all over it. There’s something about espadrilles in the summer – whether they be in the form of flats or wedges. I have my heart on these Lilly Pulitzer Wedge Espadrilles and in case you are more of a flats girl, Soludos has you covered. You can shop numerous different styles all for about $30-$60 dollars (I guess these should have been included in the roundup – love). Last but not least, I need to get my mom this stripe navy + white tote bag (and maybe one for myself).
