The Wishlist: What To Pack For The Beach 25. July 2019 Salt in your hair and sand between your toes, days at the beach are about switching off and unwinding in the sun. In the legendary words of Bob Marley: don’t worry, be happy. One thing you certainly shouldn’t be worrying about: what you’re going to take to the beach. To help ease your holiday packing angst, we’ve pulled together a must-have checklist of seaside essentials. So you can spend more time frolicking on the sand like a modern-day Brigitte Bardot, and less time checking whether you have the right shoes. Alongside your SPF, headphones , rose-water facial mist, and a book, these are the things you need to hit up the beach in style. SUN PROTECTION Fendi’s Fendirama sunglasses are equal parts glamorous and playful. Huge round lenses, the famous F monogram and a summer-sweet shade of bubble-gum pink have ensured their place in our raffia beach bags. Because the world looks better through rose-tinted shades, especially when you’re on holiday. ARTISANAL STYLE Summer 2019 is all about natural materials and artisanal touches. Make like a well-heeled bohemian in Gucci’s GG espadrille mules. Easy to slip on and off, they’ll take you from the beach to the bar (or should we see chiringuito?) in style, senorita. THE SUNSET ESSENTIAL Come evening, sundowners on the coast call for a little more finesse than your day-time attire. Wear Chloe’s butter-soft mini C bag in an elegant shade of grey with a cotton mini dress and statement sandals for sunset Aperols by the sea. HOLIDAY FOOTWEAR For a beach-city escape in Barcelona or further afield, you need a pair of espadrilles for urban and coastal terrain. The woven sole of this Kenzo pair ticks the hand-crafted trend box, whilst a white linen upper looks great with denim cut-offs. Beach-bums and city girls take note. THE ACCESSORY Accessorise silken maxi dresses and distressed denim high-rise shorts with a Gucci GG belt. For day or night, it’ll style up the most basic outfit for sun-drenched days by the shore.
