Bonjourno!!! We are officially back from our two week honeymoon in Italy – I can’t wait to share with you guys our itinerary, must visit hotels and top meals and restaurants!
In the meantime I wanted to share what I wore as well as some of my favorite recent purchases that would be great for any beach vacation. Last month I shared what I was packing for our honeymoon and I am happy to report back that I wore my new Gigi Burris hat literally everyday paired with my new Ray-Bans. I really should have switched it up more but honestly both were so comfortable it just made getting dressed everyday quite easy.
On the swim front, I wore my Montce Swim on repeat in Capri and Positano paired with my 9Seed cover ups and Birkenstocks. I was introduced to Montce earlier this year by one of my girlfriends and it may be one of the best swimwear brands I’ve ever tried – the fit is flattering but also soooo comfortable.
On the Birkenstock front, I personally love their plastic “Arizona” style sandals for the beach but their classic style with the big buckle are just as comfortable. Can you tell I go for comfort at all costs?! #thisis30
Other swimsuits I wore throughout the trip include some oldies but goodies from L*Space, Mara Hoffman and Beach Riot. I also picked up a brand new Agua Bendita blue and white one-piece that I had my eye on for a few weeks before we left for our honeymoon. I know the picture below was snapped a bit far away but you can get a sense of the style.
Oh, I also lived in linen while we were abroad – linen dresses, linen tops and linen shorts. It was so hot even by the sea that I really gravitated toward every single linen piece I had in my suitcase. Luckily it’s still very hot here in New York so I’ll be able to get a few more wears out of my favorite linen pieces from the trip!
So those are the big highlights/favorite purchases I wore on repeat during our honeymoon BUT I also wanted to make sure you guys saw the Shopbop summer sale that is happening right now!!!!
With fall right around the corner I have my eye on everything cashmere — even in Italy I wore my White + Warren scarf (mostly on the plane and in airports) but I also picked up one of their cardigans a while back which came in quite handy when I wanted a light layer of warmth!! There are a few cashmere styles that I see are on sale that you should definitely check out.
Other amazing finds you can find from brands that are currently marked down include Vince, Ulla Johnson, Sea, Rhode and LoveShackFancy.
That’s it for now!
More to come on our itinerary & travel highlights in the coming weeks. Xoxo. Lauren
