5 Items I Couldn’t Travel Without This Summer

This summer, I basically lived out of a suitcase — always chasing the sun from one destination to the next. Even in late September, I found myself in Morocco, soaking up those last golden days of warmth and light. And through it all, there were a few essentials that became my ultimate travel companions.

1. Paola Amador Swimwear
I fell in love with Paola Amador’s swimwear this summer — each piece is as flattering as it is fun. Whether I was lounging by the pool or exploring Morocco’s beaches, their designs made me feel effortlessly cute and put-together.

2. Philip Kingsley Swim Cap
This one might not sound glamorous, but it’s a true lifesaver. The Philip Kingsley swim cap was my secret weapon for keeping my hair healthy and protected against the salty sea and the endless dips in chlorinated pools.

3. Rings from Lila Lobster
My go-to accessory — truly for all seasons. Lila Lobster’s rings added a touch of personality to every outfit, from breezy beach looks to city strolls at sunset. I can’t imagine a trip without them.

4. Elliot Ray-Ban Sunglasses
An absolute must. Classic, timeless, and perfectly practical — my Ray-Bans were with me everywhere, helping me embrace every sunny moment (and hide those post-beach naps).

5. ALL 1N ONE Sunscreen Stick by Illumia Skin (by Lim)
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to never skip SPF. The Illumia Skin ALL 1N ONE sunscreen stick became my on-the-go essential — lightweight, compact, and perfect for quick touch-ups throughout the day.

Because when you’re living out of a suitcase and chasing the sun, these little things make all the difference.
