budget friendly // beach bags.

I don’t know about you but I am dying to hit the beach (and I’m talking about the real ocean beach, none of this Lake Michigan nonsense). I’m heading to the Outer Banks in August for vacation with my family and I’m literally counting down the days until I’m able to spend a week straight soaking up the sun, sand and surf.

And with all that beach craving and all of the non-stop activities of summer comes the need for a good tote. You know, the kind that perfectly fits all of your essentials – from a towel to picnic supplies and sunscreen (and maybe even a bottle of champagne sometimes). This month’s Budget Friendly is dedicated to the trusty old beach tote with a roundup of some favorites, all under $50:
