If dreaming of the summer is wrong, then I don’t want to be right! While some of you may still be dealing with the snow (I’m sorry, really!), for us down here in the south it already feels like summer on most days. When the temperature starts to climb into the 80s, I can’t help but mentally plan my next beach trip and bust out all my favorite summer essentials. These are a few things I’ve been loving lately.
1. Beaded Boho Tassel Necklaces
Give me all the colors! I’ve been having so much fun busting out all the bright colors that have been stored away during the fall and winter! Beaded boho tassel necklaces are still one of my favorite summer essentials and lately I just can’t stop myself from wanting to keep every new one I make for Bijoux Avenue!
2. Huarache Sandals
Every time I see these in the store, I can’t help but think of my sweet Grandmother! She has a closet full of these and I think they’re the only type of shoe I’ve ever seen her wear! She’s definitely on trend now because these huarache sandals are everywhere right now!
3. Dry Spray
I’m so excited to have partnered with Dove because their Dry Spray is seriously amazing! It goes on instantly dry and doesn’t leave behind any visible residue. It’s perfect for summer since it provides 48-hours of odor and wetness protection. It gives you all the moisturizing care of Dove in a dry spray format for softer, smoother underarms. If you’re on the go or always worried about visible streaks on your outfits, trust me when I say Dove Dry Spray Antiperspirant is the latest summer essential you need to try!
4. Fedoras
While I’m not much of a fan of wearing fedoras while I’m out and about, I still think they’re perfect for at the beach or pool. I found a bunch of reasonably priced fedoras here last summer.
5. Sunglasses
Different trends come and go, but I’m convinced aviators will never go out of style. I’ve gone through several different designer pairs, but these are by far my all time favorite!
Do you have summer on your mind too!? What are your summer essentials?

Dry shampoo is an every day essential in my house 🙂 Love that stuff. I think you covered it – glasses, a great hat, and cute sandals for the win! I’d maybe add a cute tote bag to lug all of my girls’ things.

For me summer is so amazing I don’t need much ! But those sandles and hat would definitely help love all the picks !
Mayra Murillo says
I never thought about dry shampoo being a Summer staple since I use it near by. But the more I think about it I can see how having it in my tote bag as I lay out and then run off to something else can totally come in handy.
Kelly says
Sandals, hats & shades…just need the summer pedicure with some fun colorful polish on my toes & all set!
Hannah says

I’ve never tried wearing a fedora. I feel like it doesn’t look good on me. Lol. But my summer essentials are sunglasses, sandals and romper. ☺️
Keating says
I LOVE this antiperspirant, but I heard somewhere that it gives you cancer 🙁 I dont know if that’s true or not, but my anxiety set in and I switched back to regular deodorant haha but I really loved it while it lasted!! So much better than stick deodorant. Plus it made is easier to wear black because it never smeared.
Siniciliya says
Totally love these sandals! I did not know their name before your post!
I think it is so sweet that you mentioned your Grandma
