20 of the best beach-ready buys

It’s no surprise that South American designers know a thing or two about creating joyful, sun-ready pieces, so if you’re planning on jetting off in the coming weeks or months – or wanting to inject your at-home wardrobe with a shot of sunshine – look no further. Some of the names will be familiar to you already: Johanna Ortiz, for example, whose gloriously ruffled and printed dresses channel all the Latin spirit you could hope for, not to mention her collaborations with shoe designer Tabitha Simmons and Verdi Design. Plus, there are beach bags, rainbow-bright jewelry and ultra-desirable swimsuits from new names including Silvia Tcherassi, Muzungu Sisters, Bibi Marini and Verde Limon. Add them all to your suitcase to really pack a punch.
