Spring Break 2014 Beach Essentials

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Boise State chapter.

Spring Break 2014 is here! (Can I get an amen?) Time to star packing for your week-long beach holiday: the Oregon coast, California… maybe Lake Havasu or Cancun if you’re really lucky. Here’s a quick break down of the three fashion essentials you need for a stylish Spring Break.

1. The Tote

Tote bags are synonymous with beach vacations: fit everything you will need for a day at the beach in an easy-access bag. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to flaunt your style! We like this snarky (and all-too appropriate) tote from Forever 21: 

Price: $3.80. Or, customize your own tote with Zazzle.

2. The Hat

Practical AND so fashionista! Although floppy hats are a classic beach look, we like the slightly western vibe of this panama hat from Rue21.

Price: $14.99. 

3. The Shades

You can never go wrong with pink– as in these cutie shades from H&M.

Price: $7.95. Of course, HC swag is always preferable. Check out our Editor-in-Chief’s beach-ready look, below! #selfie. Share your Spring Break #stunnashades selfie with katiemeikle@hercampus.com for a chance to receive a pair of Her Campus sunglasses, pictured here.
