It’s full-on beach-going season, so we’re making sure our beach bag is fully prepped with everything we need for a (chic) day in the sun! Today, we’re sharing those beach bag essentials with you. Whether you are headed out to the surf and sand or enjoying a relaxing day by the pool or lounging by the lake, these items will have you covered for any summer fun by the water!
- Diane von Furstenberg – Striped Triangle Bikini ($195): If you’re a bikini kind of gal, we love this cute and colorful one from DVF. You can never go wrong with stripes.
- Porter Magazine: We can’t head to the beach without a good book or magazine.

- Sun Bum Sunscreen Lip Balm, Coconut, SPF 30 ($4.33): We love this sunscreen line! We keep the sunblock and sunscreen lip balm in our tote at all times.
- ‘Mere’ Flat Slide Sandal ($59.95): A cute slide is the perfect alternative to flip-flops!

- French Girl Organics – Organic / Vegan Sea Salt Hair Mist ($31): A salt spray is the perfect way to enhance those natural beach waves and keep them going all day.
I love the sunnies and the beach bag. I’d throw in a couple of bears in that bag or those little champagne cans, cause you know… it’s the beach!
