Must Have Essentials for Spring Break

With Spring Break right around the corner, there are so many preparations to be made! Whether you’re getting ready to set off for a week of sitting on the sand in Mexico, snorkeling in Aruba, or opting for an alternative spring break volunteering in another state or country, we’ve got some must-have spring break essentials for a break filled with memories to last a lifetime – and you’ll look good while making them.

The Swimsuit

First up – bathing suit business. It’s time to show off the body you’ve been hiding this winter with some cute swimwear. The minimal bikini is a staple when it comes to bikini shopping. If you have an hourglass figure, a string bikini will elongate your legs and slim your hips. If you’re an athletic build, suits that enhance your bust will make you look more feminine.

   

   

Or you could go for something a bit more strappy – the wrap features slenderize your frame while giving you an extra boost up top!

   

The Accessories

Every outfit, no matter how minimal, isn’t complete without some cute accessories! If you’re partying all day on the beach, opt for some cute shades to protect your eyes! Statement shades are in this season, so choose ones that give you a certain look—whether it’s retro, glam, vintage, or hipster. Set your outfit apart from others with cute necklaces, bracelets or rings that give you that beachy vibe. Pura Vida Bracelets has an awesome selection of stackable, colorful jewelry that would be the perfect addition to any beachy outfit! Coordinate your swimwear outfit together with some of these items:

If you’re like most girls, you’ll need a bag to carry your essential beach items. Please don’t ruin your nice handbags that you use for everyday uses. The sand and water at the beach will definitely creep its way into your bag and dirty it. We definitely recommend using a beach bag or tote, which will have room to pack all of your necessary goodies.

Sometimes our skin does need a break from the sun. That’s when a stylish floppy hat and beach cover up comes in handy.

   

The Most Important Spring Break Essential

Last, but not least, don’t forget to put sunscreen on to protect your skin and enjoy yourself. Just remember, there’s nothing like a good sunburn to ruin your trip!!
