Straw Bag
Natural seagrass and raffia lined with linen. Created from dyed seagrass and woven raffia, then topped with a fringy, textural pop of green. Pina Colada, anyone? 🍍🍹
- Trend: A pineapple is the iconic islanders’ symbol of welcome.
- Wear: Shopping in seaside boutiques or spending an afternoon poolside – your look is on-trend. Plus, you have room for a bathing suit/towel, cell phone, daily essentials and more!
Jewelry
- Trend: Finely woven raffia with swingy white tassels paired with classic turquoise for a beachy vibe. 🏖️
- Wear: Throw on and go with this 5-piece stretch bracelet set! Can be worn all together or mixed with other gold bracelets. Easy accessorizing for the beach and effortless for after.
*psst: remember these earrings (below) that I got from Soft Surroundings last summer? I still wear them all-the-time!
Straw Hat
- Trend: Feel like you’re on an island getaway every time you wear it. 👙🌊
- Wear: Hand embroidered along with two bright rings of Caribbean pink and tangerine around the brim are a stylish mood elevator.
Slides/Sandals/Summer Shoes
- Trend: Shimmering metallic leather slides. 👡
- Wear: From poolside to early appetizers to eveing bonfire and shopping in-between – metallic slides like these navy ones will “go” (no need to match) with every outfit, will be comfy, and will be perfection to wear while site-seeing this summer!
Tunic/Cover-Up
- Trend: Easy breezy. 😊
- Wear: Toss on over your swimsuit in the morning before heading to the beach, and transition it from beach to bar by throwing on some simple accessories.
- Still 💕LOVE💕 this embroidery embellished one (below) from last year with a handful of beads and sequins.
☀️Looking forward to wearing these items on the regular this summer – what about you?☀️
*Soft Surroundings provided me with items for my organic review, but all opinions are my own.
I have a straw bag, but not one as cute as yours with that little pineapple on it. I HAVE to have one for myself to take to the beach this summer!!
It’s really lovely to have a straw bag! I love that one with the pineapple as well. Love taking these types of bag to the beach! So perfect!
Straw hat I have already. Have the summer shoes. Accessories for me should be light and not heavy.
The tassel earrings aren’t heavy at all. Love accessories that are light as well, they’re perfect for making your look come together but also comfy enough to wear to the beach!
Oh my gosh I love that hat! I am going to vacation in a couple weeks that would be a perfect accessory to bring with me.
Thanks! I’m sure you’re going to love these! Check out my links for straw hats!
So far I noticed a lot of people having straw bags and the use of sandals during summer. Lovin’ the look of that round earrings.
I really love the straw bags and I hope that trend doesn’t go away soon! Love the earrings as well. These are super comfy!
You had BB at “Bohemian”. ; ) Looks like this is one summer Babushka will be in style and loving it. Those jewelry pieces?? Perfecto! Gracias for the heads up on Summerwear. BB2U

Glad that you do! I love the straw hats and bags, they’re so perfect for the summer and they go so well with tunics and cover-ups!
I only have a hat with those five essential list lol. We are so far away from the beach but when we go, we always make sure to have the necessary essentials.
It’s not to late to get some essentials for the beach! It’s really nice to make sure you have everything you need!
I wish I could find cute summer sandals that I liked in my size. That hat looks fantastic on you, I never look good in hats at all.
I linked as much items as I could and I hope you find something that fits you! They’re all so lovely!
The straw bag is definitely in! I think it’s not only trendy but also functional especially when in the beach.
I love it! That’s exactly why I love it so much!
Love all of your summer essentials. I need one of everything. LOL. Would love the straw hat and bag. Super cute and the color of your sandals is gorgeous.

A good pair of slides can definitely go a long way. I have so many different styles. I need to invest in a straw bag though!
