Your poor husband, OP.

Land's End tote all the way!!!! That's what I'll be rockin at the beach

Why in the world would you care enough to ask this question? Do you literally have nothing else to do in life? Try the Fashion folder if you're looking for real answers.

can't believe i read all of this - don't you think OP's question was in jest? there cannot be anyone seriously asking this question.

if you dont own an embroidered LL Bean beach tote, you dont know how to do it on this part of the east coast (midatlantic and north)

you would have been better off either describing the bags as oppose to dropping the labels but for some reason im thinking your goal was to name drop anyway.

to answer your questions, ive read that sand prefer the feel of gucci leather so thats your best bet. if you are laying the bag on a towel, beach towels prefer the feel of furla so its up to how you plan on using the bags.

have you decided if you are taking your LV luggage or the trunk? i think the luggage doesnt scream "look at me" like the trunk does so go with that

you told your husband you were posting this question? Who the hell cares what bag you own or take the beach. It is scary to think you have a baby and you are asking which bag to bring. GROW UP

Maybe if you are Brigitte Bardot and headed to the cote d'azure with your hair in a Hermes scarf this might be a legit question, but if you are going to Bethany or any of the little beach towns within driving distance of DC, you will look incredibly tacky and foolish. Take your beat up LL Bean tote and be done with it. Oh wait, I bet you don't have one of those. Better hop online and order one stat!

Thanks for the laugh!

Wait . .. can she get the boat bag distressed? (N.B.: "Boat bag" is Old Money for LLBean tote).

I'm from Georgia and this is soooo Sea Island it hurts. Then again, in Georgia, Coach is still considered a designer label bag, so these women really think they're breaking the mold with an LV.

Yeah, but Sea Island is very luxurious. The only place fancier than the Cloister is the Sanctuary in Kiawah.

Yes, Sea Island is beautiful, and I really enjoyed my time there.

OP, I got carried away and didn't answer your question, for me it's either LL Bean or if I'm feeling really special, I also bring those free bags I get with my Lancome purchase

Don't forget --LL Bean has free shipping!

Haha i feel like op is that wannabe cool kid. I've been all around the world and the people i see who are wearing/bringing ridiculous things for the situation (platform stilettos at the pool) are usually the jersey shore /real housewife wannabes that get made fun of by everyone else. But hey op, if you want to be laughed at while in your head you think everyone must be jealous of you, then bring both!!!
