What to Pack: Seaside Retreat
My thoughts have turned to the ideal warm weather vacation wardrobe as our family has an oceanside trip on the horizon.  I love this palette of sea green, mist grey, sunshine yellow, and ocean blue.  White is the quintessential neutral for summer, so packing go-with-everything white denim is a must.  The striped oxford does double duty as a sexy, bum grazing coverup and as a top for the cut-offs or the jeans.  The straw bag easily transitions from beach to town, though a more elegant clutch is in order for a night out.  Gold jewelry looks amazing against sun-kissed skin and it mixes and matches with all of the clothes, including the bikini.  And what’s vacation without a little lingerie thrown in?  It takes up very little room, after all.

I have great affection for the open water.  Its influences can be seen in both my home and closet, where the colors of ocean, lake, sand and dune dominate.  The outfits above were inspired by my recent trip to the sea, but adjusted for our current cooler climate.  I love the idea of mixing and matching everything, and then swapping out the leather pants and dark jeans with white denim, casually rolled or patterned shorts, and breezy skirts when the weather breaks.
