7 Beach Essentials That Aren’t a Bikini

Ardene Lightweight Leather Flip-Flops ($10)

You don’t want to bring your pricey sandals to the beach in case they get ruined with the sand and water, but you’re maybe also past the point of wanting to wear rubber flip-flops, too. For shoes that will maybe last a season or two at most, opt for a less expensive, easy-to-part with pair (that are still cute, obvs). Plus, the thin thong won’t breed any weird tan lines either.
