Say hello to sunkissed tans and long summer nights because beach season is right around the corner! HELLO SUMMER!! Where have you been all my life?! It only took you 8 months to get here.
Now I know everyone is super excited to pop out their little bikinis and short shorts, but PLEASE for the love of crop tops don’t forget the essentials, ACCESSORIES!! Sunglasses, hats, beach towels, beach bags, this is what summer is all about, my fellow peaches! Some of you might be wondering,"Where can I find an amazing fashion guru to help pick out the perfect summer accessory essentials?" Ladies, look no further! I have here the ULTIMATE summer accessory guide to help you look your absolute best while you strut your stuff down the boardwalk or relax on the beach!!
SUNGLASSES
Summer wouldn’t be complete without sunglasses. Not only are sunglasses a big fashion statement, they are good for you. They protect your eyes from the damaging UV rays of the sun, allowing you to frolic all day long outside! Looking fabulous and taking care of your body at the same time? Sounds like a winning combination to me!
So now you might be thinking, "Where can you find the perfect pair?" Two words Peaches, Mink Pink. No lie, I am down right obsessed with this line of Sunglasses! They come in a variety of super cute frames to fit everyone’s face shape, and the best part is, they won’t break your wallet! If you don’t believe me, ask all the celebrities. Selena Gomez was recently spotted at Coachella with a pair of Mink Pink Sunglasses. Celebs + Coachella = Love! Seriously, with Mink Pink shades you can NEVER go wrong!

Now that we’ve got our eyes covered, let’s move on to the head. Whoever told you head accessories are unnecessary is WRONG! Not only are they super adorable, they’re absolutely functional! Hats protect your head and face from the sun, while headbands keep the hair off your face. Sounds like another win to me! Lucky for you, we have the PERFECT headband and hats over here at Peachy Keen: Headbands of Hope and San Diego Hat Company.



Of course beach bags are such an essential accessory this time of year! You need a place to put your perfect summer read, sunblock, phone, keys, etc. Let me introduce you to these new lines we just got in: Tikka and Whimsicle by Art Studio Company. This company uses Earth-friendly recycled goods that give a second life to villages, people, and recyclables. Another great cause with cute products? Love it! I can’t get over these different prints! With such a beachy, earthy vibe, I feel like I’m at the beach already just by looking at them. Any Peachy girl would look absolutely fabulous sporting these bags this season. Get them while they’re hot!

It should be obvious why beach towels are an essential accessory, but please look at these new Julie Brown beach towels! Wait, beach towels? More like resort towels! Can I just say how absolutely obsessed I am with these?! The design of these towels are so beautiful, I feel like I just booked a 5-star Getaway in Hawaii. They are also so soft and absorbent. Your skin and body will thank you. Hurry and grab one before I buy them all. Just kidding! But no seriously, these won't last long!

Picture yourself laying out on the beach listening to the waves crash. But wait, there’s something missing; a drink in your hand. There’s nothing that makes a beach session more enjoyable than a nice cold drink, whether it’s a Margarita, Corona, or even simply cold H20! Not going to lie, it can be frustrating when my drink gets warm too fast or sand gets all over the cup. Ladies, I have a solution! Freakers and Beach Spikers!
Based in Wilmington, NC, Freaker is not your ordinary drink insulator, but in my opinion, the best drink koozie I’ve ever seen in my life. These things are not only functional but super cute and hilarious! They fit any bottle and have the most clever and witty designs. And because this company was developed near the beach, I think it’s safe to say they know what they're talking about. Say goodbye to sweaty, salty beverages!
