Given that I go to the beach year-round, you'd think I'd have the beach-bag-packing thing nailed down. Not the case. This summer, for some reason or another, I have forgotten to take a hat with me. So recently I resolved: if I buy a super cute new hat then I will not forget it, and, brilliantly, it's worked. Proof, ! My dress, which I have been living in lately, is by Natalie Martin and you can find it .
