I don’t know about you, but I’ve had only one thing on my mind lately: vacation. I’m dreaming of sunshine, salty hair, and lounging poolside with a piña colada. And of course, I’m envisioning a chic wardrobe—more specifically, a chic designer wardrobe. (I’m only human.) When I went to the Net-a-Porter site and saw the editor-favorite retailer launched its vacation edit, which even features a few pieces exclusive to the site from designers including Nili Lotan and Tod’s, I had to stop everything I was doing to peruse. Maybe I’m being dramatic, but you would be too if you saw this gorgeous crochet dress from Chloé, these printed Pucci shorts, or any of the other stunning items in the edit. You get the point: I’m obsessed.
Naturally, I shared the edit with my co-workers, who are taking some time to get away to sunny destinations this season (even if it’s just a quick trip along the California coast), and they instantly fell in love with the selection, too. Keep scrolling to see what they’re fantasizing about packing in their suitcases.
“This summer, I’m planning a lot of trips down to my hometown of Laguna Beach. Instead of traveling too far, spending some time at my favorite childhood beaches is the perfect way to enjoy the season. Laguna is really laid-back and kind of quirky, which is why I’m planning on wearing simple swimsuits and accessorizing them with printed separates and statement bags. Net-a-Porter is always my go-to for both basics and trendy pieces, and it definitely delivered this season. Catch me on the trolly in Laguna wearing my new Pucci shorts and Loewe sunglasses all summer long.”
“I’ll be soaking up the California sun this season and indulging in fresh seafood during my stay at a true seaside gem: Santa Barbara. This charming city is the epitome of coastal chic, so I’m turning to Net-a-Porter’s vacation edit for some much-needed style inspiration. It has all the must-have designers from Chloé to Ancient Greek Sandals. Find me roaming the cute, beachy town in lightweight crochet ensembles (I’m envisioning this stunning Chloé maxi dress), deep-blue swimwear, and pretty, woven accessories.”
“I have a trip planned to Mexico this summer, so getaway ‘fits are definitely top of mind. When it comes to vacation style, I look for easy, effortless pieces—think matching sets and lots of linen. This summer, I’m investing in chic accessories (e.g. these ultra-cool Gucci square-framed sunnies and this luxe Khaite raffia bag) that elevate all my summer basics. In my opinion, you can never have too many.”
