Best of Summer // Long Lake Weekend

We just got back from our annual long weekend at a friend's lake house up north - it was just like this piece by Casey Roberts called "Hidden Lake Swimmers" (I swear). Lazy days on the dock, boat rides, antiquing, lots of great food and friends (and the cutest kid). Some essentials:

Floppy straw hat (pro tip: pick one up at the thrift store before leaving town) // cool shades from Warby Parker // sunblock // polka dot swimsuit (or this one) // I spent the weekend drooling over a friend's Pendelton beach towel // J.Crew striped sweatshirt for cool evenings // cut-off jean shorts from good grace on Etsy // slip on Toms in natural burlap // Ikea bag that doubles as a beach tote (only $1.99!) // a favorite book like Maiden Voyage by Tania Aebi
