Summer is so close, we can aaaalmost taste it. So it wouldn't be right if we didn't share some of our best beach tips. Blink once if you agree. Okay, we'll tell you… 

Number one: Always bring a fitted sheet. If you turn it upside down and place your bag, cooler, chair, and toys in the corners, it’ll help keep your space sand-free. Number two: Stock up on Vineyard Vines bathing suits and cover-ups. They’ve got tons of chic, flattering styles that pair well with SPF and frozen drinks with tiny umbrellas. And we have a feeling they won’t last long. Sea what we mean. PS: Skimm’rs get 10% off women’s swim and cover-ups with code SKIMM10.
