Beach Basics

Ok, well some of these are summer/beach basics I can't live without and others are new discoveries but they are all perfect for summertime:

We discovered this stuff, which I have never seen before "Pomegranate Dry" - if you haven't had it and love the POM (like moi, I am obsessed with pomegranates, pomegranate tea..etc), then try this - and try it with a splash of vodka and a lime and you will not be disappointed! This is my new favorite drink.

Croakies - oh lord, where would I would I be without my favorite preppy accessory? I actually enjoy the function of these, being able to hang my sunglasses around my neck and rearview mirror b/c otherwise, they would have def. been smashed or lost. (mine are the pink and green version, naturally!)




Gotta have the canvas tote (mine's pink) for beach bumming:

Gotta have some good beach reads too:

This is the pen name of the Shopaholic series author, Sophie Kinsella - I honestly didn't like it as much as the Shop series but it was still a fun, quick beach read.


I really enjoyed this book. I heard so much about it, I decided to pick it up. I love her time in Italy and her views on things. She has some funny anecdotes about traveling. I personally thought she went heavy on the spiritual philosophy, at times, but her anecdotes save it. Great memoir, different that the usual beach read and a refreshing one at that.

I'm definitly going to have to find that pomegranate dry - I had a pomegranate margerita last week that was so amazing, it got me really pumped for some refreshing mixed drinks (and i'm a beer girl). glad to hear you had a great vacation! you deserve it!
