Summer Accessories - All About Swimsuit Cover Ups and Beach Bags

Hi everyone,  happy August!  I honestly cannot believe that it’s August already but I might as well get over it ‘cuz here we are!  I’ve been meaning to post this latest #allaboutaccessories post for awhile but so many things came up in July (I truly believe Mercury showed out in retrograde lol).  With that being said, let’s jump right into it!

I really enjoy going to the beach or going to a pool during the summer or while on vacation and I take my looks very seriously.  The last thing I want is an ill-fitting swimsuit and boring accessories!  Check out some of my fave beach bags and coverup combos below - everything is very affordable.  I tend to not spend a lot of beach/pool wear because the season is so short in the Northeast, but that doesn’t mean I don’t wanna look cute.  I list (sorry no links-a lot of items are old) where I got everything from under each pic.  Feel free to comment, like, share and don’t forget to follow on social media. As always, thanks for reading!

FAVORITES
My favorite stores to buy swim/beach apparel include TJ Maxx and Marshalls, Forever 21 Plus, ASOS, BooHoo, Shein, Target, Walmart, Old Navy.

My favorite coverup style is a kimono or kaftan although from time to time I will wear a sarong or jumpsuit. I love mixing bags, hats and slides with my different coverups and suits.

My favorite type of beach bag is a straw one, but the washable cloth bags are great too!  Walmart always has a lot of options for a good price.

My favorite type of swimwear is a one piece. Its more flattering on me and I have so many!

My favorite hats are big straw ones - the bigger the better.  I find hats everywhere- but TJ Maxx usually has a great selection of stylish ones at the beginning of the season.

My favorite sunglasses are from Nordstrom or Aldo.  I don’t wear expensive glasses to the beach, since I often leave my stuff unattended when I go to water.
