What's In My Beach Bag?

Because I'm at the beach this week, I figured I'd take a few minutes away from relaxation to share with y'all what I keep in my beach bag.

1. The Beach Bag

I found my whale beach bag for $8 at TJMaxx which is what I consider a deal! It's burlap and huge so it gives me plenty of room to just throw everything in there on my way down to the beach.

2. The Towel

The towel I brought this week is actually my mom's and she got it when she got her Ray Bans in 1992. Clearly a throwback, the other end of the towel talks about the 1992 Olympics and this towel outdates me by 3 years.

3. The Cover-Up

Trevor bought this Ralph Lauren cover-up around Christmastime and although I often sport it around the house as more of a lounge outfit, I thought that this was the perfect time to whip it out on the beach!

4. The Book

Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin, also a movie that I have not seen, is an awesome beach read. Okay clearly I'm saying that because we all know I have an obsession with weddings and there's an engagement ring on the cover but I promise it's great for other reasons. I can't wait to watch the movie when I'm done!

5. The Sunscreen and Tanning Oil

I'm 110% loyal to Banana Boat on tanning oil because I love the quality and the smell but I'm less loyal to one brand when it comes to sunscreen. I've been using different brands all week but today I sported this Neutrogena Beach Defense Water & Sun which did an amazing job. I was lucky enough to not add onto my burn from yesterday and I'm closer to a good tan now. 

6. The Koozie

Can you even go to the beach without a Lilly koozie?

7. The Drink Holder

I got these "sand koozies" as I like to call them off of Etsy for my mom, Tasia, and me and they're so nice when it comes to putting your drink down and not having a thick layer of sand all over the bottom. I think this has moved up to a necessity on beach trips now.

8. The Other Little Things

The first of the other four things in my beach bag is a water proof bag which I like to keep my phone in. I never take my phone in the water but you never know when sand or water can come out of nowhere and I like that it protects my phone. I also have a State Farm football that my mom got from work that hasn't been whipped out yet, brand new headphones that I haven't used yet, and a seashell I found while tanning today.

What's in your beach bag?

Love ya mean it,

Bailey
