Let the honeymoon begin! Once you step off the plane, your adventure truly begins. The bright sun gives you an unmistakable glow, incredible sightseeing (and shopping!) awaits and white sandy beaches are calling your name. We’re dreaming of Mediterranean travels...and here are a few of our favorite stylish (i.e., essential) swim looks to bring along.
START THE CELEBRATION IN IBIZA
Ella Moss
Just off the coast of Spain, this little spot is known for more than Mike Posner's latest hit. Enjoy its gorgeous oceans and nonstop nightlife. We suggest a suit worthy of the island’s incredible waters. One of our favorites? The modern Mazatlan suit by Ella Moss. This stylish suit will take you from watching the sun rise to watching the sun set and every gorgeous moment in between. The stunning design is perfectly bold enough to stand out in pictures #nofilter needed.
Next stop: Saint Tropez
SAY BONJOUR TO THE FRENCH RIVIERA IN SAINT TROPEZ
Luxe by Lisa Vogel
When you hear the words “Cruise Collection”, Coco Chanel and St. Tropez instantly come to mind. Your favorite chic pieces will be right at home in this sophisticated resort known for hosting countless artists and celebrities. Consider picking up a pair of modern low block heels or stylish espadrilles to explore the city’s glamorous sights (Elle suggests La Tarte Tropezienne bakery, architecture in the Old Town and star-gazing at Club 55). Afterwards, relax under a cabana on one of its legendary, white sand beaches. Utterly perfect and utterly elegant, we recommend a sophisticated white Maillot from Luxe by Lisa Vogel, a floor-length cover-up and statement jewelry. This au courant style with it's modern plunge neckline and metallic accents provides the perfect curve-accentuating silhouette that can easily be paired with chic YSL pants or a stylish Dior skirt. Effortless elegance.
On to Italy…
RELAX ALONG THE AMALFI COAST
Basta
Who can resist Italy? This stop is all about balancing exploration with relaxation and that perfect sun-kissed glow to finish off your trip. Before you zip up that suitcase for the third time, slip in a vibrant bikini. Brightly colored buildings dance along the coast, set against the bluest of waters. We recommend this chic and stylish Zunzal Reversible Bungee set from Basta. The rich color is undeniably eye catching and absolutely photo worthy. When you’re fully relaxed and ready to explore, select an airy cover up with beautiful embroidery and colorful tassels and the perfect wide-brimmed straw hat. Click this link for one of our favorite straw hats by Eugenia Kim.

White can be symbolic of new beginnings, purity, and the start of a new life together in many cultures. It's also associated with traditional wedding ceremonies in Christianity. The tradition of wearing white wedding gowns has both historical and cultural roots. Queen Victoria is often credited with popularizing the white wedding dress in the 19th century when she married Prince Albert in a white gown. Select this lovely little link to read an in-depth article featured in Brides that highlights the history of Queen Victoria’s choice to wear a white wedding dress.
Wondering how to find your perfect fit in wedding gowns? Typically wedding dress sizes can be different from regular clothing sizes. Wedding dress sizing often follows its own set of sizing charts, and may differ from one bridal designer or brand to another. Wedding dress sizes often run smaller than regular clothing sizes, meaning that a bride may need to choose a wedding dress size that is larger than her usual size.
Why yes! This does come in pink! When it comes to choosing the perfect accent color for your bridal shower dress, pink is a gorgeous choice. Not only is pink a beautiful bridal party color, but it also adds an unexpected element to your stunning little white dress.
