If you haven't already, go throw yourself into the Fresco Beach Tote, Giveaway comment list. It's well worth the shot. I'll be, randomly, picking one lucky winner to receive a beach/pool tote made of their luxurious, long staple, super soft cotton towels.
Their prints resemble, intricate tile work pattern, or an exotic carpet on a washed-bright background. If you're not familiar with this company, check it out. Their a family run business based here, in L.A.

Toss those worn out thin towels and treat yourself to something that looks like a fabulous rug on which to perch your swimsuit clad self. You can buy their towels at Anthro and Ron Herman.
