Editor's Choice: The BEST Summer Beach Bags and Accessories

Beach and Pool time just got cooler. Philip Stein Tote & Pistil Fedora

These are some of my favorite summer totes, beach bags and accessories for sun and sand! Trending now but will remain true classics you can call on year after year.

Quirky Mesh Bottomed Beach Tote and Matching Clutch

Quirky? Maybe. However the Shake Sand Sifting Beach Bag has a mesh bottom and flap to let the sand out. Pretty close to genius in my book but did you catch the little matching clutch? It has the same set up so no sandstorm there either. Roomy and well thought out, it has a zippered inner pouch and straps with just the right drop length. Coated canvas fabric in a sand beige, it's perfect for the beach blanket. See them at Quirky.com

Bamboo Handled Woven Bag from Hawaii
My brother purchased this for me while shopping on the Island of Maui. It's just the right size for your keys, wallet and cell but pretty enough for lunch at the Tiki Bar. Has a zippered closure and little pouch within.
