3. Swimsuit

4. Patriotic Statement Piece

Memorial Day is a time for celebration with friends and family, but it's important to remember what the holiday stands for. Memorial Day commemorates the heroism of average people who died in active military service. Strut your Stars & Stripes with trendy patriotic wear, like this crocheted crop top:

5. Denim Shorts

Jeans are the most versatile pants ever invented. They're comfy, forever trendy, and match with everything. Plus, blue jeans are a genuine American invention, so they truly make the perfect Memorial Day outfit addition.

 

6. Sunscreen

Memorial Day Essentials: Organic All Natural Hypoallergenic Sunscreen[x]

Your Memorial Day plans likely include some sort of outdoor activity. Anytime you soak in the sun's rays for longer than 20 minutes, however, you should always wear sunscreen. Sunscreen lets you get some much needed Vitamin D without burning to a crisp. Organic, chemical-free lotion is the best option for sensitive and acne-prone skin, so there's no reason not to wear it.

 

7. Good Wine and a Portable Wine Table

There's never a right time to crack open that Dom Perignonso let Memorial Day be your excuse. And, with this foldable wine table, you can comfortably enjoy it with your significant other under the shade of a tree.

Sure, you shouldn't have to worry about time on Memorial Day, but watches do more than just tell time (see 5 Timeless Reasons to Wear a Watch). Wouldn't it be cool to show off a new sporty accessory? Plus, on a Tree Hut watch, you could get "Memorial Day 2K16" engraved on it so you can remember the day forever and ever...


9. Waterproof Phone Case

Memorial Day Essentials: Waterproof iPhone Android Case[x]

Who else has tragically lost a phone to water? A waterproof phone case will cleanse your mind of all worries of having your tech near liquids. Your friends can toss you into the ocean, clothes and all, without worry too. ;)


10. A Tote to Carry It All In!
