island basics
Lauren: You’re stranded on a desert island and can only bring five things from your closet — what do you grab?
Elisabeth, Coco Blanca: Coco’s Closet is bursting at the seams right now with all kinds of fabulous new arrivals, just begging to be snatched up by an Island girl! First I’d pack my crocheted raffia cross body bag with braided leather strap to carry all my beach essentials like Jouer’s Hydrating Lipstick in Kiki from Bellacara. Second, I’d grab my cowboy hat with it’s leather chin cord so I could ride bareback in the ocean breeze while protecting my skin from the sun. Third, I’d pack a pair of white piqué stretch jacquard pants … I just love the way they fit! Fourth, I’d grab a light mohair blend sweater to pull over a cami and pair with my pants for a moonlight sail. And fifth, I’d pack my charm necklace with coin pearl, aqua chalcedony and gold dipped coral dangling from a 14kt gold-fill chain. The style: simple, breezy and elegant. Bon voyage!
