What better choice for a day at the beach than the blue Old Navy Extra High-Waisted Sweat Shorts ($20)? These ocean-colored sweats were practically made to wear over a swimsuit — a brightly colored bikini top in a sporty cut will complement the blue tie-dye shorts, and the Mint Swim Marissa Top ($42) comes in a fiery neon orange.
A pair of waterproof sandals is the most practical – and adorable – choice of footwear for a beach hang with friends. Birkenstock's rubber version of the classic double-strap style is sold out in nearly every size, but we like the logo-emblazoned Barbados EVA Slides ($40) as an alternative. And you can't head out onto the sand without sunnies; these thick-framed sunglasses ($125) with colored lenses are totally on trend right now.
Finally, a day at the beach wouldn't be complete without a good bag to house all your essentials. These Hotshine Mesh Reusable Shopping Bags ($16) come in a pack of five on Amazon and they're perfect for storing your sunscreen, book, or any other beach necessities.
