"Summer is in full swing, and if you are a beach lover like me, you have your five or so favorite items you can&amp;#x27;t live without through the season. This weekend my girlfriends and I have planned a little getaway to our favorite beach spot, and here are a few things I can&amp;#x27;t wait to bring along. One of the most important things you can do for yourself is protect your skin from the sun. A straw hat is the way to go as it not only shields your face but is also a very cute addition to your beach look. Really, what is summer without a pair of statement sunglasses? I am loving these bright aviators and as Christina P. mentioned, the reflective look is in! Ladies, listen up: A Grecian sandal will never go out of style. I always keep a nude pair in my beach bag as they can be worn during the day, then paired with a cute sundress for a dinner on the beach. Personally, I can&amp;#x27;t live without this sandal from FIGUE. A great swimsuit is a no-brainer. You can always don your solid color two-piece, but why not switch it up and try something floral? Patterned swimwear can be very fun and flirty, trust me. Possibly the most important item, besides a swimsuit, is a fabulous oversize straw tote! How else would you carry all of these items plus the latest issue of Glamour for beach reading? Toss your life in there and zoom&amp;amp;mdash;off to the beach! Now that you know my beach accessories, share yours in the comments!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
