Anton’s Pick: The Versatile Staycation

What does it take to get in the vacation-style mind frame when you’re not actually leaving home? How about a bright summery frock, one that can go from pool to club and on to brunch in the morning? The Amorsia Maxi Dress in White from Ella Moss, will do exactly that; pull it over your swimsuit for a little extra coverage, or pair it with a slim cardigan for dinner with the family. The classic line and clean colors make it the perfect summer dress.

It’s summer, and there’s nothing better than tossing off your big winter shoes and letting your toes breathe. But just because it’s warm doesn’t mean you can go around in flip flops — at least, not in those rubbery ones; keep those for the pool and beach. For grown-up outings, go with a pair of Bernardo’s Mojo Sandals in Chocolate. Made of soft leather with just a wee heel, they are a flip flop that is nice enough to wear to the club.
Clean, simple lines are coming back for Fall 2008, and with them come simple jewelry, with sleek lines and crisp colors. Nashelle’s Silver Swank Necklace in Garnet is subtle and delicate but still incredibly beautiful, and would complete your Staycation style.
