Ever since we left Brooklyn for our summer stint in Israel, YZ and I have had nothing but internet issues. Slow as snails. Effectively exiled from the web, we’ve had no choice but to hit the beach as many times as possible. Every morning we’ve been hopping into the VW and zipping to the north and south of Tel Aviv in search of the perfect swimming spot. A few days in, I realized that there really is nothing better than getting out of the water and wrapping yourself in a fluffy, oversized, perfectly patterned beach towel. Therefore, to honor the last month of summer (insert long sigh here) we’ve collected our favorite towels for bumming around the beach (or pool, if that’s your poison). From the horribly highbrow (oh Prada, so pretentious, so pristine) to the adorably hooded (Dwell’s kiddie towel comes in tons of tot-friendly styles) to my personal favorite, the zen-kawaii option by Japanese pop artist Yoshimoto Nara!
