Banana Republic Factory Straw Bucket Hat

Surviving Florida summer purchase #1. Don’t make the mistake of reserving this hat for the beach or pool! This thing has the perfect amount of structure and flop, is breathable, and cute enough to wear running errands.

Burt's Bees Hydrating Tinted Lip Balm - Daisy

Who has time for a full lip when you’re sweating your face off? Forget the Margot Robbie in Wuthhering Heights hype for the rose shade, this shade looks like you just finished a popsicle in the best way.

Havaianas Women's Slim Square Flip Flops Dark Brown

If it is above 88° I shan’t be enclosing my feet. Despite what the kids these days say, toes out is fine in Florida. I also have the regular black version but the square toe makes the brown my chic,“fancy” pair.

Lululemon Racket Bag 19L

This bag was my first kit purchase after I started playing again and has all the pockets one could ever need. The front racket bag is detachable if you wish to travel light and carries two rackets easily (and is also built for pickleball paddles). The clip on the back makes it easy to hang on the fence if bench space isn’t free. I have an older model in forest green and the logo isn’t as prominent, which I prefer. It also has a tiny tennis ball charm zipper which thrills me every time I see it.
