I Want to Be Wearing That: Kaia Gerber's Sunset Dress

I appreciate a well-constructed outfit just as much as the next girl. I admire women who pull their button-downs off their shoulders or ladies who think to style their slips over a white t-shirt in the Summer. But just as much, I love an effortless beachside look like Kaia Gerber's, right in the middle of July. The renowned 17-year-old supermodel posted a shot of herself lounging in a yellow chiffon maxi covered in paintstroke bouquets. She unbuttoned her design from the neckline to reveal what appears to be a bikini top, and Kaia's wet hair and fresh face suggest she might have just gone for a swim.

Gold hoops are an essential this time of year for anyone in swimwear, and Kaia's tortoise sunglasses pushed back her bob so that the spotlight (or should we say sunset?) radiated down on her dress. Kaia might've been wearing shoes, but I like to imagine that she went barefoot. At least, that's what I would do in the moments before I trekked up the path to the house to rinse the sand from my toes and shower off before dinner. Is there anything better? Ahead, see the midis and maxis I gathered that are just like Kaia's, and master your "by the sea" look before it's too late.
