summer style: modern camp counselor

One of my secret ambitions is to own a summer camp. Perhaps it was too much time spent watching the original Parent Trap or reading that one Babysitters Club Super Special where they were all camp counselors, but as a kid, I was obsessed with the idea of summer camp. I even spent my time drawing maps of
imaginary summer camps I would one day own or attend.

As an adult, my fascination with summer camp hasn’t changed, though now I’d rather own a summer camp for grownups.

So it’s no surprise that my go to summer look might be described as modern camp counselor. I love shorts and a basic top for summer. Swap the tennis shoes for ballet flats, the whistle for a long necklace, and the clipboard for a clutch, and you’ve turned the camp counselor look from fashion victim to style icon.
