You’ll want an airy and flowy dress for that photo shoot, like the new cocoon-shaped Nomad dress from Obakki. Switch it up with a belt or throw a T-shirt on top and you have three outfits in one. You’ll also feel good knowing that the Obakki Foundation provides clean water in Africa.

Sunscreen pollution is a growing global problem, but you’ll never contribute with this travel set from all-natural, organic suncare line Coola.
