In San Francisco, we tend not to have Summer weather until the Fall, so when we do get days that shower us with sunshine and warmer weathers in July, we become spoiled. If you’re like me, you dash to your closet to pull out that summer weather-wear you’ve had purchased for weeks and are dying to let see the daylight.
The warm weather also has me searching for new summer finds on Beso.com which is just about one of the most fashionable search sites out there. Beso streamlines your shopping searches and lets you narrow by designer, price, garment type, stores, etc. It pretty much ensures you’ll find exactly what you’re looking for. Or, if you’re like me, you’ll find what you’re looking for and half a dozen other items you most likely don’t need, but suddenly must have!
As I did a while back, I went and pulled some of my newest summer essentials to share and while ideally, I’d have all of these hanging in my closet right now, one lucky WIT & Whimsy reader will win $100 courtesy of Beso to grab some of their favorite summer essentials.
Enter to win a $100 gift certificate from Beso and WIT & Whimsy:
- Search for your favorite summer essential on Beso
- Paste a Beso link to your favorite in the comments below (must be a beso link to qualify)
Be sure to follow Beso and WIT & Whimsy on Twitter, too. You can also check out the best of upcoming Fall 2010 trends, on Beso’s blog from my guest post.

I know everyone is going to pick and article of clothing but I have to say Clinque Face Cream SPF 50 with SolarSmart is hands down a summer essential! Protecting your skin from the sun year around is a must but especially in the summer. I love this particular fomulation because it goes on creamy, is oil free and doesn’t leave your skin chalky or ashy making it flattering for all skin tones. Bonus the antioxidants i.e. anti aging 🙂

A nice breezy top is my summer essential. This is perfect for daytime with cutoff denim shorts and transitions easily into a night out on the town when paired with dark denim skinnies.

Honestly, summer brings lots of light, form-fitting clothes. Nude underwear (that’s sexy) is the way to go!!!
