Looking for some great beach must-haves? Check out my faves for this summer...
I'm obsessed with the bikini's from SAME SWIM. Their tops are less skimpy than the gorgeous crochet bikini's from Kiini and they make bottoms like the one I am wearing that provide a nice amount of bum coverage. The embroidered pieces are beautiful and handmade in LA using Italian fabrics! There are many amazing styles to choose from and you really can't beat the fit.
2.) Beach Coverup by Melissa Odabash
This is the perfect beach cover up--you can wear it from the beach to lunch to shopping. White always looks fresh and clean for summer and the drawstring waist flatters the figure.
I also love this off the shoulder beach dress and tassel necklace by Marina St. Barths. Available via private trunks shows in New York, Hamptons, and St. Barts. Contact Marina at 917-951-3206 for more information.
3.) Bag by La Ligne
This La Lignes woven straw bag is super chic with the white stripe detail. The bag is also lined with a protective linen canvas and has a drawstring enclosure.
4.) Summer Hat by Sensi Studio
A hat is always a must for extra sun protection so you may as well look chic while keeping your head nice and cool. This panama style one by Sensi Studio looks great on everyone and will enhance any summer look!
5.) Sunglasses by Warby Parker
I recently blogged about these sunnies from Warby Parker in honor of National Sunglasses Day. The clear translucent frames are fresh and on trend for the summer. Plus, they are great if you have a smaller face!
I have always been a fan of Birkenstocks because of their comfort and cool, boho style. These are the most stylish pair I have seen in a long time and easy to slip on and off. I love the white and they are the perfect upgrade from flip-flops!
6.) Water Bottle by Lifefactory
It's so important to stay hydrated during the summer so bring along your favorite beverage in Lifefactory's glass bottle. This one keeps your liquids super cool and safe because there is no plastic or metal leaching. The silicone sleeve provides grip and prevents breakage and it's also dishwasher safe.
We may be diligent about slathering on sunscreen, but forget to take care our lips! This lip balm by Coola has SPF 30 so my lips are both hydrated and protected. I love using it because it feels so good on the lips and is water resistant for up to 80 minutes!
8.) Towel by Mara Hoffman
This geometric print towel by Mara Hoffman is plush, beautiful and the perfect accessory to lounge on at the beach or the pool.
9.) Phone Charger by Hook Me Ups
When you're out and about during longer summer days, it's important to have an extra phone battery charger on hand so why not buy one with some style? Hook Me Ups has so many beautiful designs that it's hard to choose which one to sport! My new favorites are these fringe keychain styles. The power banks are covered in fringe and they attach to any bag.
10. VITA LIBERATA Tanning Oil with SPF
Sunscreen, moisturizer and self tanner all in one-YES!!!! This is VITA LIBERATA's newest product and it is definitely one of my fave new beach must-haves for the summer. Check out my blog on self tanners and exfoliators for more!
