For the next few days, I will be posting from the sunny beaches of Coronado, California (San Diego).  The weather is gorgeous and I’m staying just steps away from the white sandy beach. 

I’ve discovered these two amazing beach themed finds at UncommonGoods that are perfect for your next seaside getaway.

For her: The Wet Bikini Bag- in pink and green 

The beach can be a heavenly experience, especially if at the end of the day you can slip your wet swimsuit into this hand embroidered 100% cotton bag with a waterproof lining. Your possessions will stay dry, changing will be a snap and your suit will have a chance to breathe even as it’s packed away. This super-cute beach essential can be yours for only $18.00!

For Him: The Wet Trunks Bag

As any red-blooded man could tell you, there’s nothing worse than wet trunks. They cling to the flesh in a really annoying way, they get freezing cold when it’s windy, and you can never wring them out completely so they dampen every other item you’re packing. With this simple bag, though, you can get those trunks off and stowed away safely where they won’t mar all your other possessions. Featuring retro Bermuda shorts and a lightweight feel, this clever sidekick ensures that after a day at the beach, a comfortable evening is in the bag.  Only $24.00 at UncommonGoods.
