With the holiday weekend upon her, Girlawhirl's packing her bags and heading for a sunny weekend with friends. And she's bringing along all kinds of beach gear, designed to be clean and green, and keep her – and Mother Nature – in top form all weekend…
It all starts with an organic cotton blanket to lay out on the sand. Girlawhirl's planning on wearing a bathing suit from Rogan for Target, the latest Go International® collection. Even though it's not made from organic cotton, the beach towel – in a cool black and white animal print – from his collection is.
To protect herself from the sun's damaging rays, Girlawhirl's got an arsenal in her tote. First and foremost, she needs a physical sunblock to protect her face and body from both UVA and UVB rays; the water resistant Dr. Hauschka Sunscreen Cream SPF 20 will do the trick. Her lips get special attention, with Bare Escentuals Lip Guard SPF 15, which uses a natural mineral sunscreen that also blocks both UVA and UVB rays.

She's got a lot to carry, when she throws in her book, water bottle (refillable, of course!) and sunglasses, but there's plenty of room in her new market tote made from recycled plastic.
