Once you’ve got your bikini and your sunglasses, you still need a couple necessities for a fun day at the beach.

1. A cute tote.

A big tote is absolutely necessary to hold all your stuff, but you don’t have to spend a bunch like Miley.  This Xhilaration tote is only $12.99.

2. A beach towel. I like the big oversized ones so I have lots of room to keep myself and my stuff off the sand.

3. An eco-friendly water bottle.

You definitely need some water and you can help the environment by carrying around a reusable bottle.

4. Sunscreen.

Tans look nice, but lobsters don’t! Be sure to get the waterproof kind so it doesn’t come off when you go in the water.

5. Flip flops. You need something you can quickly slip on and off, but no need to forgo fashion. This beaded pair by Mossimo is adorable!

Besides that, all you’ll need is a good book and some good friends!
