Hey Everybody!

This past weekend I got in touch with my inner child and went on a kite flying adventure.

While on our outting, I packed a couple essentials for summertime activities:

Sunglasses: A total must have for any outdoor activity! True story – I got my eyeballs sunburnt once and now have like three pairs of sunglasses stashed away in various locations so it never happens again! These sunglasses are the Tiffany & Co. TF4076 (particularly flattering for round and oval face shapes!). You can find them online here. I just love the teal color :).

Sunglasses Case: I keep my sunglasses safe from scratches in my purse with the suuuuper cute Rebecca Minkoff Sunglass Pouch. I love this case and the fact that it fits so many different styles of sunglasses. You can find this pouch online here (in multiple colors too!).

Water Bottle:  I carry my Klean Kanteen everywhere with me. It is so well insulated I can go to sleep with ice cubes in it and they are still there in the morning! It is incredible and as we all know I am a sucker for that teal color! A great way to stay hydrated on the go – and help out the environment too! You can find them online here in tons of styles and colors!

Sunscreen: I am suuuper pale and burn after about 30 seconds outside so sunscreen is a must for me! I typically make sure all my makeup has sunscreen in it but I love this Dermalogica sunscreen for my body and even for mid-day touchups on my face. It is super lightweight, waterproof and the SPF 50 ensures I won’t burn! Find it online here – Sunscreens. *

Cute Sandals: On our outing I wore a pair of Greek sandals I got on our trip last summer. I love pairing exciting sandals with a simple outfit to add a little fun to the look. I found these fun sandals online while looking at the ModCloth summer sale. They would be so perfect with a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans and black tee!

Check them out online and see the rest of the Summer Sale (Up to 40% Off at ModCloth). *

Just writing this post makes me want to go have fun in the sun! Hope you enjoyed my take on summer essentials! Let me know what your summer must haves are 🙂
