So you’re about to pack up and squeeze the most out of summer’s last month on the sandy shores? Us too! And while we’re in the midst of packing up the sun tan lotion, the shades, the super cute Italian bikinis et al for a weekend at the beach, we thought we would impart some packing wisdom on you guys too! Scroll for the denim lover’s guide to what to pack for the beach.
First off, you’ll need two pairs of cut-off shorts. One should be stylish (Think mis-rise and printed), and the other should be super comfy and casual.
1. Moto Ice Striped Hotpants 2. Moto Rubber Stripe Hotpants
Next up, a versatile bikini that works for swimming, sunning, and to wear with your shorts and a sarong or tank when it’s time for boardwalk parties.
1. Dolce & Gabbana Bikini 2. Missoni Reversible Bikini 3. Melissa Odabash Underwire Bikini
Next, you’ll need a few chic, versatile tanks to go over your bikini & shorts combo. These can easily be rolled up and packed without taking up suitcase real estate.
1. Mason by Michelle Mason Silk Tank 2. Kain Washed Silk Tank 3. T by Alexander Wang Silk Jersey Tank
For chilly nights on the beach, bring your favorite old (or new) well-worn denim trucker jacket.
1. UNIF Americana Denim Jacket 2. Levi’s Trucker Jacket in Light Wash
Last but not least, a pair of chic (but easy to wear) sandals.
1. Sam Edelman Women’s Gable 2. Coconuts Women’s Terrain

Feel that insane heat and blinding sunshine? Summer’s on the way, and we’re counting down the reasons we’re excited to bust out our favorite warm weather denim for a season of super-stylish fun in the sun.
Note: We know, these tie-dye shorts are amazing. Grab them at Nasty Gal.
1. No other season permits this spectrum of neons, tie-dyes, and brightly colored jeans be set free from your closet and paraded down the boardwalk. Don’t hold back on your favorite colors, whether you favor pastels or saturated electric hues.
2. What’s scandalous in the spring is common practice in the summer. It’s the only season where your cut-off shorts can resemble a bikini bottom in shortness and no one will think twice about it.
3. DIY! Cutting, slashing, distressing, dip-dying and applique are just a few of the ways you can take a pair of jeans you loved all winter and turn them into a summer dream. Need some ideas? Try this DIY.
4. The simple perfection of the basic jeans and a t-shirt combo is amplified in the summer, and while we love fall layering, this no-fail formula that dates back to denim’s pop culture debut is still a staple in looking fresh and “classic cool”.
5. Finally, it’s great to know that while this summer’s outdoor adventures might harm your jeans—from hiking to camping on the beach, or even dancing manically at summer music festivals—we’ll be right here waiting to fix them back up for you.
Get ready for an amazing summer, and remember us if you need expert denim repair, tailoring, shopping advice, and all things denim.
