Cottage Bound - What to Pack!

It's Friday, which means I'm counting down the hours till the start of the long weekend (Yay Canada Day!) Here are some of my favourite styles for lounging at the cottage.

1. A bathing suit with detachable straps - great for sunbathing AND water skiing - Gap

2. Boat shoes for the dock during the day and to hide your toes from mosquitoes at night - J.Crew

3. A roomy tote bag for sunglasses, sunblock, reading material and towel - J.Crew

4. A chambray shirt, great for layering when the temperature cools down - Urban Outfitters

5. Comfy leggings for sitting around the bonfire roasting marshmallows - Urban Outfitters

6. A pull-over for windy boat rides - Forever 21

7. A light jersey-knit dress that makes for a great bathing suit cover up - Old Navy

8. A white Panama hat to block the sun when the rays get too strong - J.Crew

9. Fun, colourful shorts for trips into town for ice cream - Gap

Any other Canadian cottage go-ers? What are your plans for the long weekend?
