Summer is officially underway, and like me, I'm sure you're ready to hit the pool scene. While sunblock and sunnies always find themselves in your beach tote, there are a few necessities that somehow seem to find themselves off your list. Here, the 5 summer essentials you need to be incredibly chic poolside (and everywhere else, too).
Swell Water Bottles

These water bottles are AMAZING. I have never had good luck with bottles like these in the past. Other bottles never do what they are advertised, and keep my coffee hot for maybe 20 minutes. Then I was introduced to these babies and my life was changed. They really do keep your coffee hot for at least 12 hours, and they keep ice in your drinks for 24! It is amazing. Beware, you might want to lightly sip on your coffee because your tongue may get burned if you forget that these really do work.
Nixon Blaster
Tired of your iPhone not being loud enough on the beach? Invest in one of these and you won't be disappointed. They come in two sizes, many different colors, and sync to your phone through Bluetooth. I have never heard so much volume come out of such a small speaker. I was in shock. They are the perfect size to put in your purse and are enjoyed by all.
Pendleton Towel
Many of you know Pendleton for their amazing blankets, but did you know they have towels too? These thick towels are perfect to soften the sand under your back. They even come in a double size to give you and your significant other room to share. All of the amazing colors and designs are a perfect addition to your beach bag this summer.
One Teaspoon Shorts

This denim line that has been around for just 15 years will rock your world. Check them out and find your perfect destroyed denim shorts to rock as your heading to and from the beach this summer. They pair perfect with your favorite swim suit.
Show Me Your Mumu
This brand is becoming increasingly popular as the days of summer begin to pass by. Known for their fun, vibrant fabrics, Show Me Your Mumu has an outfit for everyone. Just throw it on and hit the road. And guess what, THEY DON’T WRINKLE. Every girl needs a piece of mumu in their closet… or five! Just to add to this amazing discovery, your parents won't be mad when they see Mumu come across their credit card because their idea of a "mumu" is completely opposite from ours.
These items are helping me keep my summer vacation fashionable while I soak up the sun. What's on your must-haves list? Tell us in the comments!
