For all your pool party needs
I’m in Texas and these are perfect for keeping cold food outside. Just blow them up, pour in ice, set your food in the ice. Just make sure your bowls are tall enough so that water won’t get in your dishes.

I love these for packing snacks. The individual trays come out for easy washing. I love that it has a lid and a handle! And it’s a 2 pack.

This is a great looking board. I use it all the time. I love that it has a lid and handle for easy transporting or just to keep the flies away.

Flies be gone! I want them as far from my food as possible. So, these are great. You can just stick your hand right through the blades and grab what you want. Then, the blades just start spinning again.

These are a great size for all of the things.

My grands love these goggles. They are easy to adjust and they can put them on by themselves. Another big perk is they don’t get stuck in their hair.

I’ve been surprised at how many adults wear goggles in the pool. Especially, the men! So grab these to have them on hand.
EWPJDK Swim Goggles 2 Pack Anti Fog
I LOVE this layout chair!!! I hate laying on my stomach and this chair has changed that. It has the little window so you can read your book or just scroll on your phone while you’re on your stomach. I’m mad I didn’t invent it!! Lol
Ostrich Original Chaise 72x22in Pink Lounger
What can I say… I’m lazy! I am determined to use SPF when I’m outside and this is the spray I reach for first. It has the best spray of any I’ve tried. I’ve used multiple different SPF strengths.

This is one of my favorite floats. It’s comfortable and lets you stay cool.

I love to read in the pool and this is my go to because it’s waterproof. There’s no glare so it’s perfect for outside. There’s something about having thousands of books at your fingertips in such a small design.
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 16GB 7" Glare-Free Raspberry
Yep, I’ve got 2. This is my latest purchase and I love it. I love the covers in color and that I can highlight in different colors that mean something to me. If you have kids or read anime/comic books, this is a fantastic choice.

SPF 50 that adapts to you skin color. I love that the color is flexible for when I get a little more color in the summer.
Colorescience FLEX Tinted Mineral Sunscreen SPF
This is a more affordable sunscreen for my face that I love. It’s 55 SPF and is so light. I don’t like to “feel” my sunscreen.

Again, protect your skin!!! SPF is non-negotiable for me and my family. I love that this is so light and not sticky.
Neutrogena Beach Defense SPF 50 Sunscreen Spray
What I’m wearing this summer
This coverup is everything. It’s so cute and a little sexy! I got tons of compliments on it.
Eomenie Women's Lace V-Neck Swim Coverup
This dress is loose and flowy. It’d be perfect for a beach vacation or just lounging around. My friend told me I looked like i should be on a beach. Next step, book vacation! My favorite perk of this dress is no bra, no problem!

This tank has a built in bra and looks so good. Dress it up or down. I did need a medium in this one.
