2. Cynthia Rowley Printed Wetsuit ($295)

A skimpy swimsuit, "however fun or stylish," can't compare with a Cynthia Rowley hybrid suit when your beach day includes "any real ­activities — like swimming, surfing, or ­snorkeling," says Steff Yotka at Vogue. Buy it at Amazon.

3. Eugenia Kim Straw Sun Hat ($485)

Eugenia Kim's wide-brimmed sun hats feature playful messages — including "do not disturb" and "here comes the sun" — spelled out in sequins. The "wish you were here" option is great for invoking envy on Instagram. Buy it at Net-a-Porter.

4. Tommy Hilfiger Beach Duffle ($79.50)

You won't want to limit this versatile bag to weekends at the shore. Its sturdy canvas shell and roomy shape also make it a perfect carry­all for weekday commutes, too. Buy it at Tommy Hilfiger.

5. Angela Sandals From Álvaro ($500)

Nail summer's pom-pom trend and "make your feet happy" with these embellished leather flats from Span­ish designer Álvaro González, says Jacqueline Cucco at Ocean Drive magazine. They're also available in black and brown leather. Buy it at Barneys.
