Vacay or hometown stay this summer, we want to help you make the most of every last ray. Read on for my top six Summer Box picks!
1. Whether you’re headed to your hometown beach or to a tropical destination, there’s nothing worse than scrambling at the last minute to figure out how you’re going to stow away your credit cards, ID, etc., while still having them readily accessible when you decide to grab a bottle of water at the hotdog stand, or order a poolside drink. That’s why I always make sure to have a functional card holder with me, like the Lilly Pulitzer ID Case. In the blue floral pattern “Shade Seekers”, it’s eye-catching and easy to find in a stuffed beach bag! It can be used to store your ID, and the zipper pouch is perfect for keeping cards tucked away. The handy pouch features a gold metal O-ring which makes it easy to attach to the handle or key ring of your bag to ensure easy-access and so it doesn’t get misplaced!
2. There’s no better way to elevate your poolside vibe than with a fun pair of sunnies. The Dime Optics Cienega Aviator sunglasses are one of my all-time favorites! The pink mirrored lenses add a fun twist to the classic shape–keeping you looking (and feeling) cool. Just don’t throw too much shade.
3. Designed specifically for “long days by the pool” (uhm yes please!), the Vacation® Classic Lotion SPF 30 has a permanent place in my beach bag. The fun, nostalgic packaging combined with an award-winning scent which combines notes of coconut, banana, pool water, pool toy, and swimsuit lycra makes it magical! Plus, let’s be real, who wants to burn?! (Not me!) The vegan, water-resistant, light weight, and easy to wear formula is perfect for all skin types—a true tried-and-true. Have you tried?
4. Long days out in the sun can be dehydrating, especially if they end with a drink (or two). Make sure you’re staying hydrated all day long with the POPSUGAR Motivational 32 oz Water Bottle. The best part? The no-spill click cap means you can simply toss it in your beach bag without worrying about it spilling! So fill ‘er up, throw ‘er in your beach bag, and you’ll be good to go! Oh, and hydrated, of course. The built-in straw and carry strap make the bottle even easier to take with you, and the cheeky motivational sayings on the side are encouraging too–making this water bottle a win-win!
5. Create your own golden hour this summer with the Sunnylife® Pool Ring Disco. Whether you’re headed to your local lake, beach, or the hotel pool, this glittery gold, insta-worthy pool ring is just the right amount of ~extra~.
6. And finally, you didn’t think we forgot about the pre- and post-pool fashion, did you? Come and go in style with the Melanie Sarong from Beach Riot. In a fun, colourful, and playful Miami Peony print, this versatile wrap provides endless opportunities for fashion and function. Whether you’re wearing it as a bathing suit cover up or a headband, you can’t go wrong with this sarong! Available in standard and plus sizes, the Melanie Sarong is super lightweight and just the right amount of sheer—do not fear. Staycation or vacation this summer, you’ll be set (and stylish!) with these six summer selects!
