Summer Travel Basics | The Style Scribe

With hot weather (and hopefully some fun weekend trips to the lake) just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about those easy summer basics. You know, the pieces that will pack and fit into any weekender bag without a fuss and that can be worn again and again a bunch of different ways!

For example, this embroidered dress would function as a comfortable swimsuit coverup during the day, but just adding heeled sandals and a fun clutch make it a gorgeous nighttime look as well! Some other pieces that are summer essentials for me include light and airy tanks (like this one!), casual denim shorts, and simple espadrilles.

Another thing you’ve gotta consider when stocking up for summer is your beauty routine. For me, that includes picking up the oil-free version of my favorite tinted moisturizer and snagging a sunscreen that won’t irritate my skin. Thanks to all of your suggestions, I’ll be trying a number of Supergoop’s products (I’ve heard amazing things about the Supergoop Serum!), but I’m also tempted to test out La Mer’s Broad Spectrum Protecting Fluid. As a long-time user (and lover!) of La Mer, I feel like I should give it a go.
