Luxe Resort Wear (Tops & Bottoms)
The Holy Grail of linen shirts. It’s perfectly oversized, breathes beautifully, and looks so chic worn wide open over a black swimsuit.
White Linen Shirt
I am obsessed with the drape on these. They pool slightly over sandals and give you that elongated, elegant silhouette without trying too hard.
Women's Linen Pants
A thick, premium cotton tee is essential for this look. This one has a slightly boxier cut and doesn't show your bra underneath at all.
ARKET Heavy-Weight Cotton T-Shirt
A button-up vest paired with linen trousers is the ultimate country club lunch outfit. It feels tailored but keeps you completely cool.
Linen Vests - Banana Republic
A beautiful, flowing white midi skirt that catches the wind perfectly. I pair it with a tan belt and a simple tank top.
Women's Linen Skirts | Nordstrom
Polished Swimwear
The tailoring on this swimsuit is unmatched. It has a beautiful low back and acts as the perfect smooth base layer under sheer shirts.
Women's One Piece Swimsuits - Target
The fabric feels like a second skin. The muted olive tone looks incredibly elegant paired with gold jewelry and a white linen cover-up.
Olive Green One Piece Swimsuits
A quick, mesh layer that dries instantly. It’s perfect for transitioning directly from the pool lounge to an outdoor restaurant.
Skims Swim Sarong Skirt (Onyx)
Chic Footwear
The ultimate resort slide. They are incredibly understated, completely flat, and instantly make a basic outfit look like luxury.
Hermes Oran Sandals
If you want an alternative to a basic slide, the asymmetric cutout on these is stunning. The leather is beautifully supple.
Cutout Sandals
The only wedges I travel with because the ribbon ties don't dig in, and the canvas toe makes them incredibly easy to walk in on cobblestones.
Espadrille Wedges
Country Club Layers
I tie this diagonally across my torso or over my shoulders over a tank top. It's the ultimate classic prep piece.
Ralph Lauren Cable-Knit Cotton Sweater (White)
A simple, high-neck sleeveless dress in a rich taupe. It packs perfectly without creasing and feels like pajamas while looking highly sophisticated.
Max Mara Leisure Jersey Midi Dress
High-End Accents
The tortoiseshell frames with the subtle gold logo are beautiful. They add that instant "celebrity incognito" feel to a casual look.
Celine Triomphe Oval Sunglasses
It looks like a straw basket but it's actually woven leather, meaning it's incredibly durable and wears beautifully over time.
Dragon Diffusion Triple Jump Woven Leather Tote
A gorgeous vintage-style gold coin pendant that fills out the neckline beautifully when wearing an open button-down shirt.
Missoma Lucy Williams Roman Arc Coin Necklace
A literal piece of art. It’s my go-to evening bag for vacation dinners because it completely transforms a simple neutral dress.
Cult Gaia Ark Small Bamboo Clutch
This gives the most natural, sun-kissed warmth to the skin without any heavy glitter. It makes you look like you’ve been lounging in Monaco.
Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream
My signature vacation scent. The travel size fits into any evening clutch, and a single spray lasts through the entire night.
Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Travel Spray
