The weather is getting warmer, and summer is on all of our minds! Here are some of my beach essentials that will be with me every time I step foot on a beach this summer!
- First we need our bag. Mine is my Harry Styles Love On Tour tote bag! That was truly the best concert I’ve ever been to.
- My book of course! It will be whatever I am reading, currently that is The Wicked King by Holly Black. (shameless plug: check out my “Booktok Made Me Buy It… And Read It” article for suggestions!)
- Air-pods! I cannot go anywhere without my air-pods, whether that be for music or a podcast (currently listening to the Anything Goes podcast by Emma Chamberlain on Spotify!).
- Beach Blanket! I have this super cute beach blanket from Ugg that I got for graduation. Since I go to a school with three beaches, my family felt I needed a good one, so that will be coming with me as well!
- Snacks! Right now I am obsessed with Smartfood or Popcorners. I don’t know why but don’t get me started on how addicting they are (I could just eat the whole bag).
- Water! Either it’s in my Hydro-flask or a Starbucks cup… no in between but as long as it has a bunch of ice we’re good.
- Sunglasses/Sunscreen! Both necessities for a sunny beach day. Sun-bum smells the best in my opinion for sunscreen, I also don’t feel super sticky after putting it on!
- Not so much in my bag but for a bathing suit I’ve really been loving Aerie! As someone with a bigger chest it’s always been hard for me to find a bathing suit top that fits me and keeps everything put. This season Aerie has really gone off with so many different styles to choose from! Linked are some of the few I’ve got for this summer! Top Style #1 / Top Style #2 / Top Style #3
