1. What do you love most about spending your summer in this location?
Our favorite summer vacation spot is Seaside, Florida. It’s quaint, family-friendly, and so unique! The turquoise water is stunning. We love the food and shopping and all of the activities there, like paddle boarding and riding our cruiser bikes around town.
2. What does a perfect summer day here look like?
Coffee on our balcony, beach in the morning, shopping in the afternoon, dinner at one of our go-to restaurants, and an evening bike ride!
3. What are your must-pack summer essentials for this destination? Any favorite Helen Jon pieces you’ll be bringing along?
I’ll be taking the beautiful Claudia Crochet Midi Dress in Fatigue Green with the matching two piece bikini (Soft Tie Tortoise Bandeau + Asymmetrical Tortoise Bottom)! It’s such a stunning combo.
And I will wear the gorgeous blue two piece (Banded Bikini Top + Tunnel Side Hipster) and pareo on repeat!
