Personalized monograms are a huge trend right now. Here are some of the cutest and most unexpected ways you can brand your belongings with your initials:

It seems like sometimes the winter weather will never break (even in Gainesville), but a vest is a great way to make the transition. This one is available in tons of color combinations with a preppy monogram in the top right corner.

Whether it’s to be environmentally responsible or just because it’s a little girlier than a water bottle or Starbucks cup, a reusable tumbler is a great item to have for school. Not only is it monogram-able and seersucker, but this one also has a bendy straw. Who doesn’t love a good bendy straw?

You can never, ever have too many bathing suits, and this monogrammed bandeau can be purchased to match any bikinis you already have. For once, you can probably assume there won’t be another girl at the pool with the exact same Target/Victoria’s Secret top.

HaymarketDesigns.com is monogram heaven. Beyond just color combinations you can personalize the adorable prints, color, and style of monogram. Plus they have a lot of different products to choose from. These koozies actually won’t get stolen, and who could resist this huge, bright beach towel for summer?

A hat is sometimes a necessity on a sunny day or a haggard morning. Although you’ll risk having “hat hair,” choose one in your favorite girly colors. And don’t forget your monogram.
