Paralzyed by inspiration –this beach shot from our girl, Erica Chan Coffman of Honestly WTF stopped us from scrolling and had us asking all the questions. Like, where can we get our hands on this umbrella?
Apparently, Erica’s beach umbrella was a very special travel purchase we’re not able to source, but, inspired by her epic set-up in the sand, we’ve rounded up other timeless options for you we know you’re going to love!
