My Favorite Beach Must Haves…

My family is wrapping up our annual Beach Week and all week I have thought that I would kick start this blogging thing. Good intentions and a start two years ago has just stopped. Let’s just say it’s been a busy season.

So, why not start back with an easy post based on our week and my favorite beach items this week:

  1. Coolibar Marina Sun Hat – My mom has had a similar hat for years and last year I finally broke down and bought a hat. Let’s just say my hat has been the best purchase I have made. Most of the time a hat makes me hot…this hat does just the opposite. It’s cool and provides the shade you need and an added bonus it has UPF 50+. A win all around.
  2. Lands End Rash Guard Shirt – Another great find and well used item when you spend a week at the beach. Trying to not look like a lobster, I have found these Swim Shirts to be my BFF. Most of the time it’s just my cover-up, but then when I’ve had just a little too much sun, I put the shirt on and again, I’m cool and covered.
  3. Sunset Slush – Who doesn’t love a cool, refreshing treat after a day at the beach/pool?!? I’m not sure how many days we just had to go get a refreshing treat. From strawberry, lemon-lime, peach, watermelon, pineapple…we enjoyed all the flavors. If you come near a Sunset Slush – it is well worth the stop in to enjoy.
  4. Thirty-One Beach Bag – Everyone needs a great beach bag to carry all your stuff…well, mine is no other than a Thirty-One Bag. It’s an older style and not available anymore, but any of their bags with a fun print works for a pool/beach bag. Durable, colorful, functional – all the things.
  5. Rodan + Fields Essentials Sunscreen – Some of you may know that I started R+F almost two years ago. It was really to keep up the products I was using and having success with. One of the products that I have loved is their sunscreen. For the first time in many years, I have not burned while at the beach. Between my sunscreen, Coolibar hat and Lands End Shirt – I’m set.

A great week of rest and relaxation. Sunny weather and no agenda is just what was needed. Until the next time…

    Love my Land’s End shirts! I’m not a burner but I’m outside so much, they actually cool me when kayaking.
