School’s out for summer! We’re kicking off the season in one of our favorite spots– the beach.
Our Queens made their way down to Seagrove Beach on Florida’s Highway 30A for a long weekend of rest and relaxation, all while shooting our latest summer collection on location.
Here’s our Queen’s Guide to 30A.
Our creative team, Darian and Callie, got to the team’s beach house in Seagrove first. They unloaded a mobile closet of the Queen’s beachiest luxury accessories to style and shoot over 60 new summer pieces. Check out the starfish purse– obsessed.
Our ride for the week was a rose pink Moke beach buggy. It was the perfect way to bop around Seaside. It looked even cuter with our models wearing our Summer 2024 collection riding around in it!
Once the rest of the Queen Team got to town, the group hitched a ride to Leigh and Jaime’s fav restaurant Bud and Alley’s on Seaside Square.
Our Queens were decked out in the summer collection on their way to dinner– Leigh wears the Red Paradise Icon Ruffle Dress, Jaime wears the Aqua Hanging Swimsuits Tank Dress, Gen wears the Red Coral & Shell Ruffle Romper and Janna wears the Light Pink Rainbow Crab Tank Dress.
Our Queens were blasting early 2000s hits all the way home. Emily wears the Royal Blue Paradise Icon set.
No Queen dinner is complete without some friendly competition– Janna sped past everyone to be the first to finish that day’s Wordle. After dinner the girls had a few glasses of wine and girl talk before heading to bed.
Day 2 we hit the beach! We had an early morning photo shoot with our models to beat the heat. Our team spent the day hanging by the pool before it was time to get ready for our Queen Jaime’s special surprise… a cocktail workshop at Pescado in Rosemary Beach!!! The views at Pescado are out of this world and we had the best time drinking specialty cocktails and mocktails. With our group’s constant laughter, we were the sparkliest group in the restaurant by far ✨
We spent our last day indulging in the Baton Rouge delicacy: Calvin’s Chicken Salad. IYKYK. We took the moke for one last joy ride to go shopping for some classic Seaside merch at the Seaside Style store and we also checked out the new Queen pieces in store at their sister shop, Cabana. (Don’t miss it!)
Our final night we went back to Bud and Alley’s for one last bite of our favorite chicken tenders. We packed up and headed home, but we couldn’t forget one last stop at Black Bear Bread Co for our favorite road trip fuel!
See you next time!
