Beach Bag Essentials

Hi my dearies! Happy first week of July!

Whenever I think of summer time, I think of the beach. Although I live right by the lake, I never think to go down and hang out! This summer I really want to take advantage of it and have some picnics and lay out and read. 

That being said, here is what I would pack in my bag to head to the beach: 

1 :: A cute and durable bag is definitely necessary! This Lilly Pulitzer one is perfect for the job.

2 :: To keep you hydrated, bring along an insulated tumbler. I love the ones from Starbucks!

3 :: Don't forget a fashionable towel! I am dreaming about this one from Design Darling.

4 :: It's essential to have some lip butter that also has a little SPF!

5 :: And why not bring along a monogrammed sun hat? I'm obsessed with mine from Marley Lilly.

6 :: Speaking of covering up, be sure to pack some big sunnies!

7 :: For the sandy beach, wear some inexpensive flip flops like these from Old Navy. 

8 :: Lastly, who can forget a cute bathing suit? I can't wait to wear my new one from Target!

What do you pack in your beach bag? 

Am I missing anything? Let me know!
