allons-y: beach essentials round-up

shop roundie beach towel

I am totally digging all the round beach towels out there. The best part is they will last well past summer and into the fall for picnics at the park. This is also a stellar gift for summer birthdays or the hostess of a beach weekend getaway.

shop long-sleeved crop top / boho maxi

I tend to keep it pretty easy going when I am at the beach. I mean, there is sand and wind and waves - not exactly the time for heels, you know? Every time, I opt for a comfy and sometimes sporty look. With all the amazing rash guards available right now, it makes this look an instant go-to. I want to be able to play and look good doing it, amirite? I keep the super chic, fashion forward looks for lounging by the pool.

shop weekender / sunnies / aloe rosewater spray / beauty counter sunscreen

These are essentials you will absolutely be reaching for all year long. Cute sunnies? Check. Refreshing mist you must travel with - anywhere? Check. Paraben and generally yucky-stuff-free sunscreen? Check. And finally, this bag! This bag is totally making my heart flutter. Oh, Anthropologie. How do you do it to me every time?
