BRUNCH TO BEACH<br />
by Sylvia Tennant | fashion columnist<br />
Dressing for summer in the city has taken on new<br />
meaning for me this year. Since the early signs of<br />
spring, I’ve begun slowly streamlining my warm<br />
weather staples to accommodate both a polished<br />
appearance and the relaxed vibes of my seaside<br />
location. Curating a sophisticated yet beach-ready<br />
wardrobe is not easy (I’m reluctantly kissing my<br />
beloved cutoffs goodbye) however I’m getting<br />
creative with multi-purpose accessories that<br />
translate effortlessly to ocean-side essentials any<br />
day of the week.<br />
SUMMER’S IT BAG<br />
Alexander Wang’s final collection<br />
for Balenciaga was by far his best.<br />
Inspired by his California roots, the<br />
ivory-colored collection featured<br />
relaxed styling and one particularly<br />
beautiful woven beach bag. The<br />
quirkiness of the fringe detail<br />
makes this the perfect lighthearted<br />
statement piece that has enough<br />
room for all of your necessities.<br />
GIRL’S GOTTA HAVE A HAT<br />
Eugenia Kim’s hats are a social media<br />
phenomenon. Bloggers featured her “Do<br />
Not Disturb” Sunny hat heavily this year, but<br />
I’m coveting the less floppy “Daydreamer”<br />
version. The natural colour and black suede<br />
embroidery is chic for weekend brunch, and<br />
the boater hat design provides practical sun<br />
coverage. (Eugenia Kim Brigitte Hat, $375)<br />
