I don't know about you, but when summer rolls around, I find the most joy in the accessories on the market. Don't get me wrong—I love clothes. (I am a fashion editor after all.) But something about the plethora of printed sarongs, raffia bags, and sun hats just gets me excited for the warmer weather ahead. Another thing about the summer that brings me joy? The beach. I've lived by the Jersey Shore almost my whole life, and while it may not compare to the views of California or Florida, I'll still find myself heading there with my family or friends and bringing my A game with my ensembles.
You've probably already started thinking about your swimwear for this upcoming season, so why not add some fun accessories to the mix? Your swimsuits deserve it, after all. Keep scrolling for the best accessories on the market, from beach-ready bags to sun-blocking hats.
