apparel & accessories collection : men & women's resort wear.

It is a mere two days until my family and I head off to Maui (I am so ready for a vacation). Today it was brought to my attention that one of the hotels we're staying at requires "resort wear," which got me thinking to what exactly that means. In my head I picture Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday and Chuck Bass in the Hamptons (yes, I admittedly watch Gossip Girl), two looks which I think could be achieved rather easily. I am probably going to stick with my nautical-inspired striped apparel and my husband will be in his usual plaid button-down shirts and shorts, but if I had the money and the time, it might just look more like the following.



Women's: 1. Lula's brown petal blouse (£95), 2. a sailor's spirit striped round summer hat in black ($16.99), 3. Alexander Wang for Linda Farrow : Linda Farrow x ($365), 4. Button Fold Over Shorts ($55), 5. Multi Deckchair Stripe Waisted Dress ($89.50), 6. vintage 1970's wicker LEATHER basket purse ($29), 7. Black Ditsy Print Espadrilles (£12), and 8. scout blouse ($89.99)



Men's: 1. Ray-Ban Brown/Black Classic Clubmaster ($145), 2. White Edenham Liberty Print Shirt, Fred Perry for Liberty (£125), 3. Pinstriped Dashed Woven Short ($23.90), 4.
