Love that bikini- such a great colour!!
Great beach bag items!! I think I'd just add some fruit or pretzels to snack on!
i need to get myself a pair of those sunglasses! They are too cool for school!
oh yes! important to protect your skin!
looooooving your tote and bikini...lands end?! who knew?!
I got a perfect bag for my perfect beach bag this summer! It's yellow and white striped. I love your choices!
I'm loving all of your beach bag items. Especially that adorable tote!
All of that and my iPod!
I love the shape and color of that bikini ... and what a steal! LEC has really been turning out some great products. I'll add to my beachbag: a book or Kindle, and my BlackBerry!
I'm ready for the beach!!! I think you have everything covered in your beach bag :) Except I always need a bright colored lipstick... not sure why I think I can pull this off on the beach (but not in everyday world)! xxoo

this would be such a cute blog crawl! my beach bag has the same things except i always have a sarong to wrap around my head or hips when i take a walk on the beach, a baggie to collect shells and some fresh fruit!

Love what's in your beach bag. I think I would make sure I brought flip flops or some type of sandal. I love a good trash magazine while laying out.
I haven't been to the beach or the pool for ages.... but when I do go, I love me my ipod, a good read, sunglasses, and TONS of sunscreen. I'm so glad to hear that girls are starting to take care of their skin!
Wow, that's a great deal for a bikini! My bag usually has a good book, a bottle of war, sunscreen, hat, and some sort of cover-up. and snacks. Gotta have beach snacks!
Love that blue bikini!

I totally might have to order a bikini top like that!!! I am so small chested that I like something tight and comfotable to wear, and I love the bandeau fit.
I would add snacks, goggles, and a book to your bag! (which is super cute too!) :)
Definitely sunscreen and lots of trashy magazines! Too funny! Love your new suit!
Snacks! I would totally add some Trader Joe's snacks but that's just because I love to eat on the beach- and everywhere else.
What a cute swimsuit! I bet you look great in it. I always take the same things you have in your bag! I just got done reading The Help a couple weeks ago, such a good read for the summer. I took it to the Montrose beach a few weeks ago and ever since there have been bits of sand coming out!
That bag is great!!! LOVE it!
I always have sunscreen in my beach bag and a sun umbrella. Gotta protect my pasty skin :)
I am also a fan of bringing a million gossip/fashion magazines. I like tossing in a bottle of skinnygirl margarita too :)
thank you for the great post - i just bought the swim suit online!!
Ugh that bathing suit is exactly what I want!!! The beach bag is perfect!! Definitely a lot of sunscreen and magz in my beach bag, but also a book, my sunnies, and IPod. :)
p.s. already entered your fab giveaway! ;)

Mel
