I have grown up going to the beach and I have definitely mastered what my summer essentials. AKA what I need for beach days, and what I may need for after a day at the beach. There have been times where I have forgotten one of these things on a trip or a day to the beach with friends, and it just does not make for the same experience.
Good tanning bikini: We all want good tan lines.
Sunglasses: The worst thing is forgetting your sunglasses and you having to squint for the whole day.
Sunscreen: I wear SPF 30 so that I don't burn, but I can also get a tan.
Slides: I only recently started to get into slides, but they are easy, comfy, and a cute addition to your summer wardrobe.
Beach Bag: You gotta put everything everywhere.
Aloe Moisturizer:
Kai Body Butter "a silky soufflé with a moisturizing shea butter base blended with safflower oil, apricot oil, vitamins a, c, & e, aloe and extracts of chamomile, lavender and cucumber. fragranced with the original kai perfume oil"
This is useful after a long day of laying out... and getting a little burnt.
Cute Coverup:
Cute Layered Necklaces: These are super cute for brunches or dinners.
Books: Read!! I have started this book and I love to read about other people's experiences and what they have learned from it.
Tinted Lip Palm w/ SPF: The worst thing in the world is not just chapped lips, but burnt chapped lips.
Polaroid Camera:
I love polaroids and filling my walls with them. For school, I got a sheer scarf and attached some of my favorite polaroids with old earrings that I don't wear and it was cool to have those memories with me in a cool way. I was happy to think that some of the polaroids had journeyed all its way with me from when it was taken in Europe or at the beach with my friends.
Hat: My face burns a lot faster than the rest of my body and it really hurts.
Bikini Dry Bag: This comes in handy when you are at a friend's house and change out of your bathing suit and need to put your wet bathing suit somewhere.
Glowy Makeup: The summertime calls for glow and bronzy makeup looks!
