THROW SOME SHADE

Sunnies are the perfect accessory to make sure you look ultra cool in photos (no chance of unglamorous half-blink moments) while also letting you spy on the cute boy at the beach. Pack an extra pair to change up your look—we recommend packing a classic pair of Aviators and a more fun option with coloured or mirrored lenses.
