alicia’s look: the pool

This weekend I am making the pool my priority. We are still wrapping up soccer games which has kept from my long awaited “first day” at the pool. When I finally take the plunge, here’s what will be in my bag.

Why not start with a Leghila bag from The Shoe Hive? Carry the neoprene trend instead of wearing it this season with one of these awesome totes (and you can throw them in the wash!)

A Fouta Towel – so cosmopolitan and the brand RockPaperFlowers from Kiskadee is such a great price.
Cute Boho Chic Tunic for when I’ve had enough sun. The one here is from Tara Michelle and available at Kiskadee
Lip Sugar from Fresh…I’m seriously obsessed with this stuff and have 3 different hues. I use all the time in lieu of lipstick. Available at Bellacara
Pedicure – Nails will be done in my favorite hue…platinum (to match my Tkess!)
Tkees in “Blink”…(to match my toes!) available at The Shoe Hive
Reading Material (have you checked out Porter yet?)
My S’well Water Bottle – keeps drinks cold for 15+ hours!! I tested it. Kiskadee is carrying these now!
Sunscreen – Coola is the one this season. It’s organic and a physical barrier instead of a chemical barrier. Available at Bellacara
Rosebud Salve – it goes everywhere with me.
Waterproof Mascara – I like a little mascara even at the pool. The one from Peter Thomas Roth is excellent.
A Statement Ring – jewelry can be minimal and a statement ring kind of works for the pool. Someone hurry and get this one from Kiskadee so I don’t have to buy it for myself!!

The weather is supposed to be stunning!
Counting the days…
