Outfit tips for the beach

• Light, airy colors photograph beautifully by the water. Think cream, sand, blush, light blue, soft green.

• If you prefer deeper tones, go coastal: beige, olive, navy, warm brown, soft grey.

• Coordinate without matching. Mix tones and textures so everyone feels cohesive but not identical.

• Choose light, flowy fabrics that move in the breeze—linen, cotton, gauze, chiffon.

• Keep it simple up top. Avoid logos, heavy graphics, and loud neon; fine stripes or tiny checks can flicker on camera.

• Add gentle texture or layers like a linen shirt, denim jacket, open knit, or a simple wrap.

• Footwear can be minimal. Neutral sandals, espadrilles, or barefoot work great on sand.

• Accessories that make sense for the beach: sun hats, delicate jewelry, a light scarf or cardigan for wind.

• Grooming notes: matte sunscreen to reduce shine, hair that can handle wind (clips or a soft tie help).

• Bring a small tote with a towel, wipes, hair brush, and a spare shirt for little ones.

• Most important—wear what feels comfortable and confident. If you feel good, it shows.
