Unlike most Southern Californians, I love June gloom. As a lover of the rain and sweater weather, June gloom gives me the last chance to cling onto the teeny bits of that same fall/winter drear while still enjoying the few days of 80 degree weather sprinkled throughout the month. Because of this, I can still wear boots without looking like a misplaced soul one day, while the next day don my cap and sunnies by the pool.
Here is a round up of my daily necessities for the beginning weeks of summer:
1. I fell in love with the Chelsea style boot which has been all the craze in the UK. After a lot of searching for a decently priced pair (they can be quite, quite expensive), I found these bad boys on fat sale at asos.com...unfortunately they aren't on sale anymore...but still very worth the price
2. This cap has seen better days, I use it for morning runs, weekend hikes, and when lounging by the pool. Maybe it's time to get a new one but I love the leather strap and grungy style. You can find similar ones at jcrew.com where I got mine a years or so ago.
3. What would I do without my absolute necessities??? This includes my Kate Spade wallet gifted from my mom, my sunnies, my phone, and my favorite favorite favorite lip color/balm/chapstick. I swear by Maybelline Baby Lips Electro #07 Pink Shock, it's an addiction.
4. Summer= sandalsandalsandalsss. Love this pair I bought a few months back, they're sooo comfy and go with anything.
