5 Beach Fashion Essentials for Girls + Checklist

Hey everyone! I have a super super super exciting post today! Actually something centered around the beach. Now since it's summer the beach is the ideal place to be. There is water, there is sand, and there is more water. Pretty much the best thing ever. If you have no idea what to do this summer I totally recomend you go to the beach! And since so many people are going to the beach I decided to do this post and show you guys my top 5 beach fashion essentials for girls. Hope you enjoy!

Flip Flops

Since the beach is usually wet and you're probably going to be walking around a lot you need a shoe that can get wet, doesn't really mean that much to you, you can get anywhere, doesn't cost that much money, and you can comfortably walk in. For me that shoe is definitely flip flops. I absolutely love my flip flops. They are like one of the only shoes I wear during the summer.  Plus if you get plain ones that you don't like as a cute summer project you can glue some jewels or designs on the flip flops and customize them (I would love to see some pictures of your cute new shoes if you do do this).

Beach hat

Now I relize for some people they think that those humongous hats that people wear at the beach are stupid (hint hint my friend) but they are actually very cool and useful. But for someone who is going to be moving around a lot I recommend a baseball cap instead. You can get these at a lot of places and chances are you already have one at home. Plus as I said above with the flip flops, you can easily customize your hat by drawing or painting or gluing stuff on it.

Summer Dress

What dress is lightweight, light colored, and super cute (most of the time)? The answer is a summer dress. You really need to bring a dress like this on your beach vacation. It could be used as a cover up on top of a bathing suit or as just a dress to stroll around in. Plus you would look super cute wearing it! It's a win win to me.

Bathing Suit

The beach means that there is ocean connected to it. And ocean means water. And water means simming and slashing. And swimming means wetness. And wetness means you need a bathing suit. Swimming in the beach water is one of the awesomest things to do at the beach. I love to swim so it's one of the only things I do when I go to the beach. Also if you don't like ocean water chances are that if you are staying at a resort or hotel or something like that they have a pool. Which is another reason to bring a bathing suit. In pretty much all beach cities (is beach cities a thing???) you can easily find swimsuits. It is usually super easy to find your size and even if you don't go in the water you will look super cute just sunbathing on your towel in the sand with your adorable bathing suit on.

Sunglasses

These are so in fashion right now and they are so useful. They keep the sun out of your eyes (mostly), they are easy to carry, and they look cute (if you get the right ones). But I would recommend you not bringing that pair that you spent 20$ on. Why? Because chances are after maybe a week long trip they are either going to be lost, broken, torn in half, drowned, or buried. So instead of bringing your expensive ones you just should get a less expensive pair (from places like the 99c store or walmart) to bring on your trip.

And to make it easier for you guys when you are going on a trip I have a super awesome infographic checklist. Here it is!
