Traveling to the beach this summer? Or planning a beach getaway later this year? Maximize your fun in the sun by planning ahead and remembering to pack these top 10 beach essentials.
1. Oversized Towel
Stand out in the sand with an oversized
round beach towel. They double up as
the perfect beach blanket too!

2. Beach Tote
I've always been a fan of straw beach bags. They're
lightweight, chic and scream sunshine. One of my
current faves is this metallic straw tote currently on
sale at Saks Off Fifth.

3. Jelly Sandals
Throwback jellies are the perfect waterproof sandal
for the beach or pool. I'm obsessed with this
splurge-worthy pair by Givenchy.

classic pair of chic black sunnies.

5. Acrylic Tumbler
Enjoy your favorite summer cocktail in a spill-proof,
on-the-go acrylic tumbler. It keeps your drink cold
and keeps out sand and water.

My favorite speaker by UE is super lightweight, compact,
has big sound and holds up to 10 hours of battery life.

Stay connected and protect your phone with an
inexpensive waterproof case. You'll never have to
worry about sun, sand or water damage again.

8. Sunscreen
Protect your skin from the sun's damaging ultraviolet
rays with applying sun block. Remember, SPF 30 or
higher!

9. Lip Balm
Don't forget about your lips! They need protection too!

10. Leave-In Conditioner
The water and sun can also be severely damaging
to your hair. Protect your mane by applying a little
conditioner before and after swimming. It helps with
breakage and dryness.
