Summer Essentials

Fashion

1. Sundress

   

Nasty Gal

Sundresses are one of my favorite staple items for summer. I love how breezy they are and you can pair them with anything! On colder summer days, I would recommend pairing tights with booties. For cheaper sundresses check out Target's summer collection.

2. Statement Skirt

Forever 21

   

A statement skirt is a must have for summer. Whether paired with booties, tights, tanks, or a statement necklace, bright skirts are easy to rock any day of summer. Try pairing this with lace or crocheted tanks. Or, try a floral skirt with a simple top. If the skirt is bright go for a solid top.

3. Maxi Dress 

Forever 21

Maxi dresses are the clothing piece that scream summer! Flowy, light, and breezy, maxi dresses are perfect for sweltering summer days. 

4. Swimsuits

H&M

The staple item of the summer! Whether bikini, tankini, or one piece, there are bathing suits for everyone.

Beauty

1. Sunscreen

Hawaiian Tropic

Sunscreen is a summer essential. It prevents sunburn, and skin cancer. My personal favorite is the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration, because it moisturizes my skin and keeps me cool in the sun. Sunscreen does prevent a tan most of the time, and that brings us to our next beauty essential.

2. Self Tanner

Self tanner is for sure an amazing summer essential. It keeps 

you looking sun kissed and gorgeous all summer, without the 

orange effect of spray tan. Try Jergens natural glow for a 

color that builds up slowly, without looking fake. There is

also barely any smell, and it dries quickly.

4. BB Cream

Loreal bb Cream

The last thing anyone wants in summer is a face with caked on foundation and heavy makeup. BB cream is perfect for evening out your skintone, and covering whiteheads and blackheads. Maybelline bb cream and loreal bb cream are some of the best in the drugstore.

5. Oil Blotting Sheets 

Clean and Clear Oil Absorbing Wipes

Let's face it, in summer everyone gets an oily, sweaty mess of a face. Oil absorbing sheets are awesome for removing shine, sweat, dirt, and oil, without disrupting underlying makeup.
