We made it, Greenville. It’s officially June, which means we’re putting away our long-sleeve shirts and pulling out the fun summer accessories to celebrate warm days spent in Falls Park, on Lake Hartwell, and everywhere in between.
If you’re looking to check a few things off your summer shopping list (because same), then you’re in luck — we consulted local online shopping platform Surcee, our go-to for all things local, for their list of must-have summer items.
Keep reading for Surcee’s seven must-have summer picks — they know their stuff.
A Crosby dress | Monkee’s of the West End
It’s not summer without a new dress (or skirt, or shirt). With its imaginative use of color and prints, the Crosby brand epitomizes easy, breezy summer style.
Lilly wedges | Blossom Shoes & Such
Hello, perfect garden party shoes. The architectural leather flower detail makes these wedge sandals stand out from the crowd, while the wedge heel makes them super practical for every type of occasion.*
Seltzer Hut koozie | Splash on Main
Never get cold feet hands again with these chic koozie can insulators. Seltzer Hut is serious about keeping your summer bevs cold; their Slim Can Koozie features triple-sealed, stainless steel insulation, plus a screw top to prevent leaks and spills.
Bonus: Seltzer Hut donates $1 from each sale to Water Mission International.
A cute swimsuit from Vann & Liv’s 2022 collection | Vann & Liv
Because the littles need cute swimmies, too. Vann & Liv’s summer 2022 collection is jam-packed with pieces from great brands, including Beaufort Bonnet, Bermies, Johnnie O., Pink Chicken, Southern Tide + more.
Jade and Joy Joy dresses | Southern Girl Chic
Take a page out of Southern Girl Chic’s summer lookbook with a new dress from Jade or Joy Joy (or both). According to owner Sally Palmer-King, they’re the two most popular brands and “the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe.”
Free people “Way Home” shorts | C.O.R.E. Grow Strong
Proof that the perfect workout shorts actually do exist. The high-raise silhouette is comfy + functional enough for anything from a long run down the Swamp Rabbit Trail to a hike at Paris Mountain.
Editor’s choice: Yoga Nidra workshop | C.O.R.E. Grow Strong
Okay, not technically a physical product, but we think C.O.R.E. Grow Strong’s Yoga Nidra workshop series could be the perfect place to rock your new shorts. Thanks to its focus on restorative poses, it’s a great way to relax and unwind after a long summer week. The workshop is offered on the third Thursday of each month (so mark your calendar for Thurs., June 16), and no experience is necessary.*
