Beach Vacay Essentials

I keep hearing people mention Fall, but Summer is not over yet! You still have time to take that last minute beach vacation before temperatures start to drop! Check out my essentials for a beach vacay!

A Foldable-Packable Beach Tote

For those of you who have been around for awhile, you know I’m a BAG GIRL! Getting a soft foldable beach tote changed my life! I know, dramatic, but I’m serious. The first one that I got was a huge green one from Mango, that unfortunately is no longer available. No worries though, I’ve linked some great alternatives below!

A Brightly-Colored Handbag

Also, I think a bright handbag is crucial for a beach vacation! If you are not the type of person who takes risks on brightly colored bags, what better time to try it out than while on vacation?! I’ve found that bright handbags give me a sense of happiness when I look at them and they also take a plain outfit up a few notches! Check out some options that I have linked below in all price ranges!

A Cute Crochet Cover Up

A crochet cover up is great when you want to look beach or pool ready, but not be overly exposed. I also find that most crochet cover ups provide enough coverage to be suitable for going straight to lunch after your water time. Not to mention, they dry really quickly. They are cute and practical!

Cute Water Proof Slides

Now of course, you can always wear a basic flip-flop to the beach, but I love to have a slightly jazzed up version. My favorite waterproof sandals are dupes for the once famous Valentino Rockstud Jelly Flip Flops. I’ve linked the real thing and some other nice options!

Easy Maxi Dresses

Maxi dresses are perfect for vacation because they generally exude carefree vibes! They also require no thought because they are literally a one and done outfit. Also, don’t worry if you forgot to shave your legs, nobody will see them! LOL

The Perfect Beachy Fragrance

I have a whole video dedicated to beachy fragrances, check it out here!

Easy Natural-ish Makeup

I personally don’t wear makeup on the beach, but I do love to go for easy, natural looking makeup during the other times of the vacation. I typically either go for a skin tint or powder foundation. I also make sure to take a bronzer that will work for my normal skin color and my tanned one. I’ve linked some products that help me get the perfect easy going makeup look for vacation!
