It’s hard to believe that beach days are rapidly approaching! I am thinking about how we need to upgrade our gear, especially as a toddler mom. Whether it is a pool day, beach day, farmer’s market day, or just a day in sun, a good tote or carryall bag is a necessity. When it comes to a beach bag I am always reaching for something that can get sandy and beat up….but still look cute and classic despite being weathered. Preferably, this bag gets better and better the more I use it! I am all for a softened canvas, a sun-drenched jute, or even a flimsy flea market produce bag for all the beach gear!

These bags are all under the $40 price point from Amazon. Throw in your sunblock, Turkish towel, magazine or beach read, and of course some snacks! Bonus points for the one bag that is also a cooler - for your hard seltzer or green smoothie, whatever you’re feeling that day.
