Skimm Shopping

EDITOR'S NOTE

As we head towards Labor Day, I’m prepping for a friend’s wedding on Cape Cod. The trip will be a mix of festivities and downtime, and while I’ve yet to start packing, here’s what’s on my mental to-bring list:

The knit bucket hat I love to wear while sunbathing.
The heeled sandals I will actually spend all night dancing in.
My shoulder oyster bag that always draws tons of compliments.
The cotton gauze joggers I plan to wear during the road trip there.
