Memorial day weekend is upon us, and if you're lucky you'll be hanging out at the pool/lake/beach. If not, then summer is almost here, and your time will come! I've rounded up my essentials for a perfect pool day. First off, you absolutely need sunscreen. So many people think that you can't get a tan with sunscreen on, but that's so far from the truth. Also, let's be honest here, no one looks cute with skin cancer. Next up, a great bathing suit is a staple item for any summer outing. I love these mix-and-match tops and bottoms. Of course, you can't forget about a comfy cover-up and sandals. I love this cover-up; I wore it an embarrassing number of times when I was down in Florida last month. It just works with everything. You can't go wrong with these sandals, either. Your other shoes will start getting jealous when you start neglecting them for these so much. Then we have some obvious boxes to check off, such as sunnies and a hat. I can't leave my house without sunglasses on if it's sunny outside. My eyes are SO sensitive. It's so important to protect your eyes, especially in the bright sunshine that summertime brings. Everything on this list is fashionable AND functional, as it should be. Let me know what your absolute must have is in the comments! Xoxo, Sarah
