Summer's official start isn't for another 20 days, so you can call us eager, but I like to think we're just prepared. Our Fashion team's spent hours poring over seasonal launches and trends to uncover the gems of June, if you will. Herein, we've curated a lineup of our favorite things to welcome Summer, with the requisite swimwear, sandals, beach towels, and totes. Though, let's be clear, these necessities are as covetable as they are handy.

We've handpicked product launches from up-and-coming brands but left plenty of room for the staples, too. Read on and get a head start on your shopping with a few selects straight from our editors.
