heat wave

One of my boyfriend's dearest friends celebrated his 30th birthday in Palm Springs this summer.  A group of 10 of us rented a house and cooked, relaxed, and sunned together in the hot desert heat. Renting a house with a group of friends for a long weekend is one of the best ways to get out of town, in my opinion (but more on that in a future post)! That desert sun was H-O-T but we cooled off in the pool with some refreshing adult beverages.

My ideal outfit for our weekend is below.

{free people swimsuit, D&G sunglasses, madewell chambray shirt, dolce vita sandals, lovers+friends shorts, rebecca minkoff tote}

I love the pop of a bright swimsuit, and mixing patterns in the same color family bring visual interest without being too busy. Plus the bag has room to carry everything you need - including sunscreen. Do NOT forget the sunscreen! The chambray shirt is the perfect layering item for cooler nights, or air conditioned rooms.

What do you wear in the hot hot heat to keep cool?
