Must Haves for Your Summer Bag

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

Summer is almost here, and I could not be more excited! With the weather getting warmer it’s the perfect time to spend the day outdoors. Here are some absolute must-haves to keep in your bag this summer to make your summer days feel like paradise!

Your bag:

Tote bags are super trendy right now because they can look cute while still carrying so much. If you are looking for a bag for this season, try a tote. You can even get a canvas tote bag that you can customize to match your style!

Water bottle:

I recommend a reusable water bottle. The ones they sell in stores nowadays are cute and really convenient. Hydration is a must! Especially in the sun you should always have water or a drink with you and a reusable water bottle can be sealed and tossed right in your tote.

Lip balm:

The sun can really dry out your skin, especially your lips. So, it is always a good idea to carry a lip balm with you at all times.

Sunglasses:

A good pair of sunnies can be super handy on bright days. If you are catching a tan or driving around, keep the sun out of your eyes. You don’t have to spend a fortune on a good pair of sunglasses either, many stores carry cute pairs for cheap prices.

Sunscreen:

This is arguably the most important thing to have with you this summer. The sun is not always your friend and if you don’t want to end up burned you should definitely be sure to use sunscreen on the daily. You would not believe the difference it can make for your skin!

Whether you like to relax on the beach, go for a walk or drive, or hit the waves, these items can make your summer feel like paradise. Make sure to have fun this summer!
