Happy weekend, everyone! I’m sorry I’ve been M.I.A. on the blog for over a week . I caught a bug that was going around the office and was forced to take it easy for awhile. Lying in bed jealous of everyone enjoying the sunshine had me planning a weekend by the pool and a blog post!
Today on the blog, I’m sharing my poolside essentials:
1. Sunscreen: I enjoy soaking up the sun, but I’m a huge advocate of safe tanning. Not only does sunscreen help prevent sunburns, it also decreases the risk of skin cancer and early skin aging caused by the sun.
2. Water: staying hydrated is so important when you’re outside in the heat, so I make sure to have plenty of water on hand.
3. Reading material: last summer was a total smut fest, I’m not even gonna lie about it. If you’re looking for literature similar to Fifty Shades of Grey just let me know. I’ll probably stick to magazines and non-fiction this summer.
4. My iPhone and headphones: I can’t go anywhere without my phone, so of course it’s in my pool bag. If I’m not reading by the pool, I’m listening to music by the pool. I just find it extremely relaxing.
5. Sunglasses: I have an old pair of aviators from Express that have become my designated pool sunnies. They’re cute, but I don’t mind if they get wet or scratched.
If you have any summer reading suggestions or songs I should add to my poolside play list let me know!
That Shady Beach bag though… I think I’m in love! So cute!
Thanks so much! It’s definitely perfect for the beach or pool! I’m so sorry for the late response!
