Hello, hello and happy Thursday. I have been missing the beach badly. I got back from Maui a few days ago, and I am already having some serious vacay withdrawals. There is nothing I love more than some sand, salt, and sun.

Though the end of summer is a little less than a month away, I thought I would go ahead and share my poolside style & beach essentials in light of the few weeks we still have left. If you’re like me, you’ll be soaking up every second of sunshine and summer that we have left! I definitely plan on hitting the pool this weekend and binge reading my new current finds (pictured below).

Today I wanted to share my favorite bikini I have purchased in the past year. My favorite bikini brand is Maaji. Not only are their bikinis very flattering and super high quality, but they are REVERSIBLE. So I always justify the splurge by reminding myself: ‘hey, it’s two bikinis in one!‘. When I saw that this gorgeous, sunset set was on sale, I purchased it right away for my island getaway. It was perfect for my trip because I could wear it back-to-back, two different ways. The top actually comes in more than one a style: a sporty halter (the one I opted for) and a gorgeous, high neck top. I personally love both, but I typically find vneck bikinis to be a tad bit more comfortable. As for sizing, I went one size up! Maaji does run a bit small, so definitely don’t size down.

Here are my beach essentials:

one. reversible bikini top / two. reversible bikini bottom / three. pink cat eye sunglasses / four. apple earpods / five. supergoop sunscreen / six. behind closed doors / seven. revenue disruption / eight. coconut pear chapstick / nine. tory burch sandals
