Summer is here, and it’s time to embrace the warmth and sunshine. Whether you’re planning a beach vacation, a city getaway, or simply enjoying your backyard, it’s always a good idea to have a few essentials on hand. We chatted with Eve Dawes, a style expert and Club member, to get her top picks for summer.
Sun-Kissed and Tech-Savvy
Eve loves her new Ray-Ban Meta sunglasses. They’re not just stylish, they’re also incredibly functional. Capture videos and photos hands-free, video call loved ones, and enjoy music without ever taking your phone out of your bag. “They’re Ray-Bans,” she says, “so they don’t scream techy.”
Multitasking Beauty Essential
When it comes to beauty, Eve is a big fan of multitasking products. Her current favorite is the Soleil Toujours Clean Conscious set and protect micro mist sunscreen with SPF 30. “It’s a sunscreen and setting spray in one,” she explains, “which is perfect for travel.” It’s also water-resistant, smells amazing, and is packed with antioxidants for healthy skin.
St. Barths Paradise
Eve recently visited St. Barths and recommends it for its stunning beaches and relaxed atmosphere. “One of our favorite ways to spend time there is relaxing over long, leisurely lunches on St. Jean Beach,” she says. “The views are incredible, especially when combined with good company, great food, and a cold glass of rosé.” She suggests Eden Rock for a more upscale lunch, Nikki Beach for a buzzy vibe, and Gyp Sea for a relaxed afternoon.
Summer Shoe Staple
For summer footwear, Eve can’t recommend gold high-heeled strappy sandals enough. “They add a touch of glam and look great with a tan,” she says. “If you’re looking for that golden-goddess vibe, add a pair to your summer shoe collection.”
Timeless Beach Bag
Eve’s must-have accessory is her Chanel beach tote. It’s a timeless classic that she uses both as a beach bag and a carry-on. “I bought an organizer for it to make it easy to find everything,” she says. “And since I bought it in neutral colors, it goes with all of my resort wear and swimwear.”
Eve’s summer essentials offer a perfect blend of style, functionality, and practicality. Whether you’re looking for the perfect outfit, a multi-tasking beauty product, or a memorable travel destination, these tips will help you make the most of your summer.
