Beach attire isn’t limited to swimsuits. You can also switch it up with accessories to add more interest to your swimwear, as well as make you comfortable.
No, we’re not talking about putting glitters and sequins on your bum—let’s not complicate things. Classic pieces like straw hats, sunglasses, and comfy sandals are still key items for any trip. (Plus a bottle of face mist, too.) That said, we look to the feeds of today’s influencers and also listed down where you can cop something similar.
Lissa Kahayon
When you’re visiting an island, it’s almost always essential to wear a straw hat. Lissa Kahayon’s hat is a great pair to her floral wrap dress. It also adds a tropical touch to her ensemble. The best part is you can choose from a variety of sizes, depending on how much you want to protect yourself from the sun.
Shop: Stradivarius Gondolier Hat. Available at Glorietta 2.
Maan Marquez
Add some sparkle to your attire with a pendant necklace like Maan Marquez. Just remember to take it off and keep it safe before taking a dip in the ocean.
Shop: Just Cavalli Pendant Infinity. Available at Zalora PH.
Laureen Uy
We already know how unbearable the heat is these days, so it’s crucial to have a pair of sunnies with you. Laureen Uy shows us that you can change it up and wear light-colored glasses with a semi-dark tint.
Shop: Ray-Ban RB4242 in Transparent Brown, Copper Lenses. Available online.
Katarina Rodriguez
Dad caps aren’t going anywhere just yet. Katarina Rodriguez likes wearing hers during beach trips, and we’re all for it in case we can’t cop a straw hat.
Shop: H&M Cotton Cap. Available at SM Makati.
Mari Jasmine
Whether you’re walking on sand or exploring the different sites, you’ll need sandals that won’t hurt your feet. More importantly, won’t break that easily after hours of walking. Mari Jasmine’s bright kicks suits the summer season nicely.
Shop: Melissa Boemia II Flat Sandals. Available at Zalora PH.
Maggie Wilson-Consunji
Don’t forget to add arm candy, too! Maggie Wilson-Consunji layered thin gold bangles, but you can also go for brightly colored ones.
Shop: Cartier Trinity de Cartier Bracelet. Available at Greenbelt 4.
Andi Eigenmann
Self-proclaimed mermaid Andi Eigenmann never goes to the beach without her anklets. It’s the accessory of choice if you’re going for a bohemian look. If you want something more unique, go for beaded and metallic-hued anklets.
Shop: Topshop Multi-Colored Beaded Anklet. Available at Powerplant Mall.
