Still reveling in the resort collections from this season since I've just watched Le Mepris by Jean-luc Godard which is set in Capri in Italy. So envious of Europeans and their summer villas. The closest we've got here is Sentosa that comes nowhere as close and they are all being snapped up by foreigners anyway. So while we dream, here are a few pieces of clothing we can imagine bringing on a summer vacation in European isles.

1. Halter Dress SGD$ from Forever21.com
2. Sleeveless Shirtdress SGD$43.20 from UrbanOutfitters.com

Chambray dresses in the pastel shades of blue are popular this season and it's easy to see why - it's the cool of denim without the heat and matches perfectly with the sky and the sea.

3. Straw Boater Hat in Gold from Modcloth.com

As we have established on Tuesday's post, straw boater hats are still evergreen and this is the most perfect hat I've seen online. Sandra owns one and that is good enough a reason for us to own it too! Fit it on some tousled waves and you're good to go! (beware of strong breezes though)

4. Matchmaker Scarf from Modcloth.com
5. Bandana in Pink from UrbanOutfitters.com

You may have noticed that the image is made up mostly of blue and neutrals which matches the background I've chosen. Add a burst of colour with a headscarf of some sort, be it a bandana or a silk scarf that will also keep your hair in place!

6. Toms in Natural Canvas from rock star by soon lee
7. Lace Up Espadrilles from melissa2k

Walk in comfy and practical shoes in the beach so as to maximize enjoyment of the awesome scenery. Toms are cool and this shade matches the sand so your outfit will be a perfect recreation of the beach - sun, sea and sand (just in a different order). Look slightly more elegant with these brown espadrilles.

8. Brown Straw Bag from UrbanOutfitters.com

Keep your hands stylishly free with this brown straw satchel as you romp around the sand and sea!
