Weekend tote and straw hat
Where better to make use of a tote bag and straw hat than the beach? Use the tote to hold your beach reads, sunscreen and towel, and use the hat to shade you from the sun — and keep you looking fashionable. Each of these finds is $38 at Habit.

St. Tropez bronzing mousse
Get a base tan before you don your swimsuit on spring break. St. Tropez continues to be one of our favorites as it is easy to apply and doesn’t have a strong scent. Your tan will last up to 10 days with the help of the bronzing mousse, $42 to $45 at The Cosmetic Market.

Cat-eye sunglasses
These cat-eye sunglasses by Allied Metal Works are stylish — and practical. Of course, sunglasses are always a practical item to bring when traveling somewhere sunny, but you will use these daily, year round. Invest in these frames for $750 at Barton Perreira.

Straw crossbody
Leave your beach tote behind when you hit the town for dinner and drinks. Straw bags have their place in our spring and summer rotation, and we love the many shapes and sizes offered at Epergne. We found a favorite in the crossbody for $150.

This patterned scarf can double as a cover-up or lightweight wrap. Thanks to the neutral and muted color tones, it can pair with just about anything. Snag this scarf at Elle Gray for just $39.99.

Charleston Rice Beads
The turquoise Charleston Rice Beads are a must for spring! The versatile chain can be worn at its longest length (at 5′ around!), doubled around your neck, tripled to make a choker or even wrapped around your wrist as a bracelet. We consider turquoise a neutral, so it’s easy to pair this with just about anything. Find the Charleston Rice Beads necklace for $65 in SB Shop.
