Feeling Fine For Summertime

Let’s go to the beach - each let’s go get a wave

Summer. We love her.  The only season we refer to as vacation. The nights are warm, the beaches are full, the skies are clear of all but our gorgeous smog... it truly is the best time of the year. All you Oregon folk at home might be saying to yourself “what are you talking about? It’s summer all year long down in LA.” Just cause we wear white pants after Labor Day doesn’t make it summer, Susan.

There’s something about the months from June through September that make me want to throw out my entire wardrobe, book plans every weekend, drink a mid-day marg, and frolic on the beach in daisy dukes. Maybe that’s the Oregon girl in me whose hometown made her appreciate the season a lot more. Or maybe that’s the 34 year old me who still wants to pop off.  

Either way, with these kinds of desires it’s necessary to be ready for what’s next. Whether we’re driving up to wine country for the day, hitting the beaches of Malibu, or hopping on a plane to Europe, check out what we have in our suitcase that leaves us feeling fine for summertime no matter where our days take us.
