Must have summer accessories

Whether she’s a self-professed sun-worshipper, exercise junkie or picnic lover, this collection of must have summer accessories is sure to include the perfect gift idea to spoil her. 

For the beach bum

What better way to relax at the beach or park than on a gorgeous 2×2 metre throw? These beach throws come complete with a matching carry bag and sand pegs. The wind and sand won’t be able to stop her now!

Add in a picnic basket or caddy and a wine tumbler and she’ll be all set to wine and dine under the sun or stars.

Another summer beach gift idea for her is a pareo. Pareo is the Tahitian word for a wraparound skirt, but a lightweight, absorbent material allows them to multifunction as a beach towel. Gone are the days of carting a bulky towel to the beach – with a pareo, she can wear it. 

For the active one


There’s nothing worse than using a stinky, stained towel to workout. And it’s so hard to find a quality one made from absorbent, lightweight microfibre materials. These sports towels are compact, discreet and come in so many cute colours – perfect for gym, yoga, pilates or swimming, and the perfect summer gift idea for her.

On the topic of towels, this cooling towel is one must have summer accessory you can’t survive in the heat without. Simply wet and shake to cool yourself down in no time. 

This cooling towel can help to ease the discomfort of overheating during chemotherapy, radiation and menopause. It’s also handy to have after a game of sport.

If she’s busy being active, perhaps a drink bottle is the way to go. It’s super important to stay hydrated in the summer heat. Plus, a water bottle is a cheaper and more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic bottles.

Give the gift of sun protection 


It’s just as important to stay sun safe as it is to stay cool and hydrated. These Fitkicks caps are lightweight, ultra-breathable and fold down into thirds so she can take sun protection with her wherever she goes – in her pocket, handbag or suitcase.

Sun protection doesn’t have to look sporty. Happywraps come in so many beautiful prints and can be used as a lightweight neck gaiter to keep her neck and chest protected from sun damage. What better summer gift idea for her than one that protects her precious skin?
