1. Laureen Uy: Multifunctional tote bag
It's a statement piece and a practical tote in one. On her beach trip, fashion and travel vlogger Laureen Uy brought a pastel-coloured bag from Beyond The Vines; this small yet reliable item can keep small belongings such as phones, headphones, cameras, and whatnot.
2. Georgina Wilson: Trendy sunglasses
Georgina Wilson was spotted basking under the sun with her trendy sunglasses from Sunnies. Sunglasses are among the most essential beach trip must-haves as they protect the eyes from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays can cause eye damage, including cataracts and macular degeneration.
