Mel's Summer Must-Haves
Happy Summer! It’s my favorite season, being a Leo. I was made for a sunny day spent poolside with a cold drink in hand - my true happy place. Read along for a round-up of my favorite summertime essentials - items I can’t seem to live without during the hottest months of the year.
A big thank you to Handful Bra for sending me a generous summer package with their new colors to enjoy!
Handful Bra - I’ve been wearing these for years! They’re also listed in this post from a while back when I first started my blog (almost two years ago!) for being my favorite practice piece of fitness gear. But did you know that they also double as swim tops? So efficient! From class to the pool, they dry really quick and have the best support of any workout bra I’ve tried. The summer Sundeck color and Coolside color are both so cute!
Slim Can Coozie - I’ve been using this so often to keep my favorite Starbucks Refreshers drinks cool (and of course, Truly on the weekends!). It comes in a lot of cute colors - I went with the iridescent white one :)
Travel Water Bottle for Dogs - On hot days, a cool water bottle for Mindy’s walks are key. This is a really functional item because it folds up easily and it’s soft for her to drink from. It travels really well, too. For all of Mindy’s favorites, click here.
Elta MD Tinted Sunscreen - Byfar the best sunscreen for my face that I’ve ever tried! It gives a very lightweight coverage with no feeling of oil left behind. Great quality and this bottle will last a long time, too.
Bubba Water Bottle - I have had this for years, and it keeps my water cold ALL day, even on hot days at the pool. Fill it with ice and you’re good to go for hydration in the summer heat.
Blenders Sunglasses in Ice Palace - These are SO cute! I always bring a backup pair of sunglasses to the pool because I know how easily they can get lost or broken. These are a cute stylish pair with such a fun vibe.
