Lounge by the Pool in Style this Summer with these Beautiful Beach Towels

** this post contains affiliate links for my favorite beach towels **

When we built our pool deck last summer, I could see visions of picture perfect days on the deck… soaking up the rays. You know what I couldn’t see? Beautiful beach towels – because honestly I wasn’t even sure they existed. After raising kids for 25 years, in my mind beach towels were a canvas for Dora the Explorer or “Pensacola Beach” written all over them. {Parenting isn’t always “pretty,” huh?}

Now that we’re empty nesters, it’s a little easier to put away the hot pink & purple towels and buy a few that are just honestly… well… pretty! I love it when I can buy pretty versions of every day items – and it was kind of shocking to see just how many pretty ones are out there.

And since I was shopping for myself, I decided to share a few of my favorites with you – and you won’t find a cartoon character anywhere in sight 🙂
