5 Essentials for Summer in Bridgehampton

Megan Chiarello of Gloria Jewel recommends beachwear and accessories.

Patch spoke Friday to Megan Chiarello, the owner of Gloria Jewel on Main Street in Bridgehampton, to get her recommendations for essential beachwear and accessories that women just can't be without this summer.

Here are her top-five picks:

1. Lure Swim Bikini

This is the fourth season that Gloria Jewel will carry bikinis by Lure Swim.

"It's the best fitting bikini," Chiarello said. "It just fits everybody."

2. Mondrina Clutch

Chiarello said these metallic clutches are "the perfect fun swimwear accessory."

3. AG Piper Crop Jeans

These distressed boyfriend jeans are great for wearing to the beach with flip flops and a cute T-shirt, Chiarello said. "It just adds some fashion."

4. Wilt Razorback Tank

Wilt tanks are the best tops for summer because they are lightweight but not see through, Chiarello said. She suggested pairing a tank with the piper crop jeans.

5. Lily and Laura Bracelets

These beaded Nepal bracelets are handmade in Nepal.

"Everybody just loves all the colors, and it's fun to stack five it six on your wrist," Chiarello said.

Gloria Jewel is in its sixth year in Bridgehampton. The women's boutique is open seven days a week year round and also has locations in Westhampton Beach, Amagansett and TriBeCa. The latter location opened just recently.
