Seaside Style

each days are the best, and with our weather, we’re fortunate to take advantage of those days more than others. With so much time spent soaking up the sun, it’s a good idea to invest in stylish, cool, and functional seaside gear. While the classic beach styles remain the same, improvements have been made to make our beach days more fun and less fuss, while still looking fabulous and having a sunny and stylish day.

Sunny Beach Bag ~ The classic beach bag can be as stylish as it is functional. Beach bags come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, made from materials such as canvas, EVA, neoprene, the classic straw bag, and many more. They’re perfect for packing your gear for a day at the beach, with room for towels, sunscreen, that book that’s been sitting next to your bed for 6 months, and anything else you want to bring along on your day of fun and sun.

Style Tip ~ Go for bold, beachy colors or tie a scarf around the handle to make your bag sunny and stylish.

BHaute Hats ~ Wearing a hat at the beach is a smart and a sunsavvy idea, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice fashion for protecting your skin. Hat styles for the beach can range from bucket hats, cowboy hats, baseball caps, to the straw hat that’s as classic and beautiful as a Gulf Coast sunset.

Style Tip ~ Don’t be afraid to sport a colorful hat, especially if your swimsuit is a neutral color. A straw hat with a colorful band is a great way to do this.

In-Tents

Beach

Day ~ Unless you’re planning on cutting your beach day short, bringing a tent is a great idea to keep you cool in the shade... because sometimes even the biggest sun worshipper needs a break from the rays. Beach tents have come a long way and are now more portable and easier to put up than ever before. Gone are the days of starting your beach day arguing with your partner as you struggle to put up your beach tent properly. Stylish and user-friendly tents are here to save the day (and potentially your relationship).

Style Tip ~ Go unique and retro for your tent style and colors. Not only is it stylish, but you’ll be able to find your tent on a crowded beach after a stroll as well.

Cool Coolers ~ If you’re planning a beach day, it’s a good idea to bring lots of drinks and food, so a cooler is a must. But if the idea of dragging a cooler all the way though the sand to your desired spot makes you want to cancel your beach day all together, never fear, cooler backpacks are here! Yes, the lightweight design of a soft sided cooler with the convenience and ease of a backpack. Many models from different manufacturers are available and in price ranges from ‘I’ll only use it a few times a year’ to ‘I’m a sun goddess and I’ll use it every weekend’. The best part is that stylish colors are available for these backpacks as well, from basic grey, black, and white to beachy, bright colors like blue, orange, and green.

Style Tip ~ Pair your cooler up with matching koozies for a fashionable and put together look.

Beach Blanket Bliss ~ Beach blankets are the way to go for a comfy day at the beach. New and trendy beach blankets are all the rage these days, as they should be, these blankets come in all sizes, even big enough for your entire beach-loving crew. And unlike beach towels that collect what seems like every grain of sand on the entire beach, these blankets are ‘sand resistant’ so you can comfortably lay without getting sandy. Multiple colors, styles, and designs are available as well, from sea turtles, light sabers, the classic rugby stripe or even the nostalgic checkered blanket, these chic blankets are practical and fashionable.

Style Tip ~ Coordinate your beach blanket to match your other beach accessories or even your beach tent. You’ll look like you’re cool, calm, collected and have it all together, even when you secretly have sand in your bathing suit.
