Beach bag essential: Floral tunic for $30

What it is: Tunic, $30, H&M

Why we love it: Easy and breezy, pick up this lightweight tunic now and when the warmer weather arrives, it'll take you from the patio to the pool in an instant. A perfect summer staple, we are smitten with the faded floral design, pretty pearly buttons, double-breasted pockets, and especially love the fact that it's 100% cotton...yahoo!

Stylist's tip: Pair this tunic with jeans, metallic sandals and a straw fedora for a laid back weekend ensemble or pack it in your beach bag. It's the perfect bathing suit cover up.
