Summer is practically here, and what better way to welcome the sun-soaked days than upgrading your wardrobe with Hayden's top summer must-haves? Whether you're lounging by the pool, hitting the beach, or enjoying a night out, these chic pieces and timeless accessories are guaranteed to make a splash!
1. Perfect White T-Shirt
The ultimate versatile piece is a white t-shirt. Believe it or not, Hayden recommends the Hanes boy's white t-shirts for their simplicity and comfort. Pair it with shorts, skirts, or layer it under a sleeveless dress for an effortlessly chic look.
2. Pair of Gold Sandals
Add a touch of glamour to your summer outfits with a pair of gold sandals. Hayden loves Ancient Greek Sandals, and she also suggests checking out Etsy for dupes! These sandals are not only stylish but also comfortable for all-day wear – perfect for both casual and dressier occasions.
3. Pair of Shorts
Every summer wardrobe needs a great pair of shorts. Whether you prefer the sporty look of Adidas shorts (we have some in the shop!) or the timeless appeal of denim cut-offs, one or more go-to options is essential for staying cool looking during the hot days.
4. Fun Bangles

What better way to accessorize your summer outfits than with colorful bangles! Hayden loves adding a playful touch to her looks with eclectic bangles that can be mixed and matched – a unique flair!
5. All-White Dresses
An all-white dress is a summer must-have. Whether it’s a flowing maxi dress or structured midi, an all-white look can easily be dressed up or down. Arguably, this might be the most perfect piece for summer with it’s unwavering versatility!
6. Cashmere Wrap (or Sweater)
A cool summer evening may call for something to take the chill off, and a cashmere wrap (or lightweight sweater) is a perfect. It’s soft, cozy, and adds a touch of luxury to your wardrobe. Opt for the natural colors that can complement any outfit, ensuring you stay warm, and equally important, stylish.
7. Functional Sunglasses
Shades are a non-negotiable season essential – stylistically and practically. This might be the only time Hayden does not recommend Vintage…instead, Hayden suggests choosing sunglasses that are UV protected. Find a pair that suits your face shape and can be paired with various outfits and you’re sure to look chic in the sun!
8. Day to Night Bag
A versatile bag that takes you from day to night is essential for any time of year. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, Hayden loves a straw handbag, like the one on the left, and/or a pop of color. It’s spacious enough for a handful of daytime essentials and elegant enough for an evening out.
9. Sleek Slip Dress
As far as Hayden's concerned, a sexy and simple slip dress is a must have for summer 2024!
10. Sun Hat
Stay protected from the sun while brimming with hats always adds a chic touch to an outfit. They're perfect for beach days, pool days, or even a bad hair day! Hayden's friends at ByVLada and Sing Hat Company make her favorite styles!
