    33 Beach-Ready Pieces To Help You Enjoy The Sun And Sand

    If you need to hit the beach ASAP but don't have your beach wardrobe ready, don't worry. We can help.

    1. A floral one-piece bathing suit that also passes for a mini dress so you can head straight to the bar after drying off from your day at the beach.

    2. A long-sleeve rash guard top and ruched high-waisted bottoms for protection against UV rays that'll also make you look ready to walk the swimwear category at this year's beach beauty competition.

    3. A breezy maxi dress if you're planning to spend your beach days showing off your charm (and legs) and flirting with the wind. Its adjustable straps and tie provide extra support so you don't have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions.

    4. A pair of polarized aviator sunglasses because you deserve to look ~fly~ while protecting your eyes from UV rays.

    5. A braided, floppy wide brim hat so you can look like you've got the winning horse at the Kentucky Derby when you're actually just lounging on the beach, catching up on a book you started eight months ago.

    6. A semi-sheer sarong with tassels if you're in need of a cover up with a bit of whimsy.

    7. A durable, water-resistant outdoor blanket sure to make your beach visits comfy. And because it's made with a woven acrylic, your visits will also be a tad more sand-free. Easily shake sand off of it before throwing it in the back of your car.

    8. Or a sand-proof beach blanket because worrying about sand going in places sand shouldn't be going always ruins the serenity you're trying to find while lounging at the beach.
