Let's set the scene: it's 80 degrees without a cloud in the sky, and nothing sounds better than catching some rays while keeping cool and relaxed. You grab your refreshing cocktail (or mocktail [1]) and a trendy pool float [2] and hop in the water — and suddenly, all your worries wash away. Sounds nice, doesn't it? Summer is just around the corner, and it's time to start planning for days just like this one — pool float included. And no, you don't need an actual pool to do this.
Floats can be used in all bodies of water, and lucky for you, Target [3] has some extra-cute ones at an affordable price. These floating devices are the real deal and range from an oversized sloth to a doughnut-shaped tube. Pick up one of these cute floaties for yourself and start planning your next Instagram pic — I promise you the trip to Target is worth it.
