What to Stock Your Beach Bag with this Summer

Last weekend was the official kick off of summer which means beach trips are (hopefully) in your future. You know that Sorority Shoulder Bag you lug your books to and from class in? It also doubles as a fantastic beach bag! Here's what we're filling ours with this summer.

• Sunglasses

  We'll of course suggest our Greek sunglasses, but we totally understand if you want to go a little more glam--you are rocking a sorority beach bag already.

• Sunscreen

  Personally, I prefer sunscreens by Neutrogena so my pores won't get clogged.

• A Good Book

  Bring along a book to get lost in on your next beach vacation. We recommend: The Girl on the Train, The Rocks, or Enchanted August.

• Lip Balm

  We're big Burt's Bees fans most of the year, but if we're going to be out in the sun, we switch to Maybelline's Baby Lips with SPF 20.

• Allure magazine

  Really any magazine will do. Allure just happens to be a personal favorite.

• Snacks

  When you're at the beach, you don't want a snack that will make you feel bloated. My latest obsession is Harvest Snaps snacks.

• Water

  Water is kind of a given, but why not transport your beverage in one of these awesome Greek Aluminum Water Bottles?

• A Fabulous Hat

  I'm not really a hat person, but I've always wanted to try out a beach hat like this one from Nine West.

• Hair Ties (emphasis on the "s")

  If you have just one hair tie, you're bound to lose it, and beach days are quite sad without a hair tie. For exactly that reason, we offer our Sorority Hair Ties in packages of three.

• A Fun Cover Up

  Something light is usually best to wear over your bikini, and we love the fringe on this cover up from Shoptiques!

• Towel

  We know your sisters have your back, but the Greek Embroidered Beach Towel will literally keep the sand off your back.

We hope your summer is relaxing and filled with beautiful, sunny beach days! Let us know what's in your beach bag on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram
