MARISA'S MUST-HAVE'S FOR JULY
Since we are having a non-summer this year and staying at home is the best game plan, why not make the most of it and spruce up your outdoor spaces and beach gear? From the best outdoor umbrella to chic outdoor lights, I’ve rounded up some stylish finds to make your outdoor living room almost as enjoyable as your indoor version.

Table in a Bag is a Crate and Barrel classic. They’ve made this piece forever, and for good reason. It makes eating on the beach a snap and is easy to carry.

Who ever thought a cooler would be so cool? YETI has somehow managed to become the go-to with the Tundra, it’s sleek, well designed way to keep things chilly.

When it comes to outdoor umbrellas, those in the know turn to Santa Barbara Designs. Long an editor favorite, their quality and style is unparalleled. Chairish teamed up with California brand and designed an exclusive collection. Available in an array of colors, I prefer the Tuscan Sunset Umbrella with wide stripes and marquis style valance detail.

Have it made in the shade with Eugenia Kim’s Annabelle straw hat that has giant grosgrain ribbon. If there is a ribbon on it, I usually tend to like it.
