What's in my beach/pool bag?

Hey everyone! So as all of you might know ITS SUMMER!! And summer means you can do whatever you want and because I live in Charleston, SC that means i have a beach literally in my backyard.  Me and my friends are always in the water so a beach bag is essential!

Mine is from Ooh Baby Infinity on Etsy

Its super cute and click the link to get yours!!

Now for the good stuff: what's inside!

The most important thing when you are doing water activities is a towel and mine from belk!

Another thing I love to have is a hat but i forgot the seller but you can get one similar from easy!

I kinda have a bathing suit obsession but I love this suit from Lilly Pulitzer

Everyone should have a good pair of flip flops like mine from rainbow.

YOU CANT FORGET YOUR SUNSCREEN!!

I love using my monogram shirt from Charleston Monograms as a coverup!!

Everytime I go to the beach or the pool I ALWAYS bring this box to keep water from getting on my important things!

This is what I keep in my box: my phone, body spray, a brush, kookie, my wallet, sunglasses, and some hair ties.

And that's it! This is what I keep in my beach bag and I hope you enjoy!!

How we edit our instagram pictures!

Hey everyone! Most of y'all might know us from our instagram @thescpreps ,but if you don't you should really check it out (shameless self promo) for some cute #ootd , artsy pictures, giveaways, and so much more! Anyways we have been getting some questions about how we edit our pictures, so we might as well just do a whole post about it, right? So we try to keep our instagram very bright and colorful so it standout! If you would like to know how we do that keep reading ;)

So if y'all wanted to know what our instagram looks like this is it!

Very bright and colorful and stands out!

Well lets just jump right in on how we do this!

The picture I will be editing is this one I took (btw all out our pictures on our instagram are our own) behind my friends when we were riding bikes.

This is the before and after!! BIG DIFFERENCE RIGHT!!

Well guess what WE ONLY USE ONE APP!

AVAIRY

it looks like this

These are our steps to editing!

1.) crop it into a square  

2.) go to the enhance tool and press the scenery button.  It makes the picture   

brighter and more vibrant with one button!

3.) go to the color tab and press the warmth button and turn it all the way down

4.) go to the color tab again and turn the saturation up a little bit

5.) sharpen the picture a little to make it more better quality

6.) brighten it up with the brightness tool

NOW YOU ARE DONE!!

You should now have an @thescprep worth picture to post!
