Need some summer style, hair, or skin care inspo this season? We recently attended Swim + Resort Day held atop the rooftop pool and bar Summer Club (also featured in our Pool Guide) in LIC, Queens; the perfect setting for the occasion, we must say so ourselves.
We were able to connect with so many amazing brands offering products and services that are perfect for the hot days of summer. We can’t forget the coconut cocktails, buffet spread, and DJ spinning summer tunes to set the mood! Check out the brands featured and we recommend taking a closer look at their collections for your upcoming summer vacation, daycation, or staycation before it’s too late!
