Blackbough Summer Essentials

All we’ve had on our minds lately is our next summer beach day, and we know we’re not alone. We’re rounding up a simple list of all the things you need to make your next day out not only stylish, but picture perfect too! Make sure you’re beach ready before heading out with these summer essentials.

If you’re heading to the beach, of course you’ll need a ‘gram worthy bikini that not only makes you look good, but makes you feel good as well. We’ve got all the summer newness for you to break the internet and rack up those double taps.

The Liv Set in Wild Orchid is the perfect bikini for tanning with its adjustable cups and skinny straps. Its color makes the sweetest mix of purple and pink that’s sure to catch everyone’s eye! 

If you’re looking to really bring the heat this summer, we’re all over the Chloe Set in the new Solstice print. If you’re looking to get into the super strappy bikini trend, this is your best bet - the criss cross style just packs a whole sassy look nobody’s ready for.

Have some fun under the sun while keeping your hair and skin protected with a bucket hat! Our new Bea Bucket Hats feature a new drawcord that doesn’t just keep it in place for the windy days, but also gives a hip vibe to it too. 

If you prefer something that comes in solid colors, pack the Frayed Bucket Hat. It’s got that laidback lived-in vibe that we can’t get enough of.

Tote bags are totes cute, especially this one with the blue green straps and embroidered logo! This new Rope Tote Bag in Flower Power that can hold all your essentials and more - just throw everything in and go from beach to errands without having to change bags. 

You’ll need a stylish coverup to complement your summer outfits. We love carrying a sarong with us ‘cause we can easily lay it out whenever the sand gets too hot or wrap it around our waist to amp up the style. 

The Sol Sarong in Kai Aloha features a bold print in an hawaiian retro vibe - plus points for its nostalgic feel.

Top off your looks with the cutest accessories! We’ve got scrunchies and headbands to wear on your hair or on your wrist in different prints and colors. Now you never have to worry about bad hair days - just friends who probably won’t return your cute pieces! You can even make your own scrunchie pack so you get to choose only the ones you’re sure to rock out. 

Now you’re ready to rock it out at the beach. Have a blast, babes!
