Must Haves July 2020: Beach Basics
Summer is finally here! We have been eagerly waiting to shop for months. Fortunately, all of the stores are open and packed with new summer essentials including what you need at the beach, in the yard, to decorate your home and even to entertain with ease. We stopped in the stores around town and picked out summer essentials that you will want to have this season. Happy shopping!
Reversible Bathing Suits
We love this suit from Trina Turk. This one-piece is reversible with the floral pattern on one side and the orange stripe on the other. Wear it over and over without looking the same! It will be the must-have in everyone’s closet this summer!

Sweatshirts
It might be hot in the summer sun, but when the sun goes down, many nights call for a sweatshirt. We love this blue-and-white tie dye. It’s soft and comfortable, and you look like you could blend right in with the ocean.
