What I Packed for the Beach
Emporio Sirenuse Dress, Call It By Your Name Bag, Janessa Leone Hat, Saint Laurent Sunglasses
The pieces I reached for most were the simplest—easy, refined, and able to move from beach to lunch without a second thought. A few standouts:
What I came back to was how much beach dressing relies on thoughtful layering:
- Lightweight coverups that double as full outfits
- Easy combinations like shorts with a bikini and a button-down
- Sarongs and pareos wrapped multiple ways—skirt, dress, or top—then worn straight into the rest of the day

It’s less about quantity and more about versatility, pieces that can shift with you throughout the day. I always bring an oversized white linen button-down (also love this green one!), a simple white tank, and a printed caftan. Everything felt relaxed, but still put together, which is exactly how I want to dress at the beach.

Dressed for the Afterglow
Outfit Details: Rixo Dress, Miu Miu Bag, Ancient Greek Sandals, Carolina Bucci Necklace (similar, less expensive here and here)
There’s a specific kind of dressing that only happens as the sun starts to drop. The light goes warm and low, everything picks up a little shine, and I want to be wearing something that catches it.
That instinct is exactly what pulled me toward this Rixo dress. Between the mirrored embroidery and the rainbow watercolor effect, it’s the kind of piece that feels special without trying too hard. Fun, a little dazzling, easy to fall for. This edit follows the same idea. Every piece has some shine, sparkle, or bit of embellishment that comes alive as the day winds down, all in those warm, glowy tones that feel just right for July nights.

Silk Halter Top
Silk draping with its high neckline make this halter top feel striking for golden-hour plans.

Amazon Sundays: Get Ahead on Back to School
This week’s Amazon Sunday is all about getting ahead on back-to-school supplies while summer is still very much happening. I’m soaking up the last of it, but the first day always has a way of sneaking up right behind me. The idea is to have the necessities prepped and ready to go now, so that when the morning actually comes, the only thing left to think about is packing lunch.
I pulled together the pieces that make the transition feel easier, from a lunchbox that keeps everything fresh to craft supplies and notebooks. Then all the things that keep routines organized, like a label maker, family calendar, and a restock on my favorite stain treater.
Browse the full selection below, and explore more in our JB Amazon Shop and Amazon Storefront, refreshed weekly.
Personalized Backpack
A personalized backpack makes the first day feel a little more official, and it is one of those pieces that feels just as useful for school mornings as it does for weekend activities.
Kids Art Smock
An art smock is exactly the kind of small thing you are happy to have before the projects start coming home, keeping paint, markers, and glue a little more contained from the very beginning of the school year.

The Matching Set, But Make It Swim
Outfit Details: Montce Bikini & Pants, Eliou Necklace (old, similar here), Janessa Leone Hat, Ancient Greek Sandals, Retrosuperfuture Sunglasses
There is something so satisfying about a matching set, that feeling of being put together head to toe with almost zero thinking required. Swimwear makes an especially good case for it. I love when a suit has a second act, a sarong, a pair of pants, or a linen dress cut from the same print, so the move from pool to lunch barely counts as an outfit change. The last thing I want to think through is an elaborate look when the whole point of the day is relaxing by the water.
That is what a set like this solves. It adds polish and intention to beach dressing, building a look full of color and personality that still makes sense for a swim but can carry you through the rest of the day.
