Bikini Topper
Milly is making what might very well be the coolest, prettiest beach cover-up on the planet. You've got to enlarge the photo on Bergdorf Goodman's website to appreciate it fully. It's made of lacy crocheted white cotton, which is actually kind of groovy-graphic. There's a delicate bit of scalloped trim at the hem and drawstrings at the neckline and on the sleeves. The shape is swingy and loose, which furthers its '60s vibe, sort of like what a Rat Pack groupie would have worn poolside in Palm Springs back in the day. At $292 it's a splurge, but at least if you layer it over jeans and a silk tank or even over a brightly colored slip, it could definitely work out and about, too.
