Camping Out With a Beach Cabana Tent

Takeshi — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 22:00:58 +0000

Fourth of July is coming up this weekend, and I know where I’m going to be spending it– the beach!! It’s been something of a tradition for me and my friends over the past few years to drive up to Santa Cruz on the 4th, set up a couple of beach cabana tents, and hang out the beach all day, and enjoy the fireworks at night.

If you don’t have a beach cabana tent yet, you should definitely look into getting one. A beach cabana tent is great shelter to set up on the beach, if you want to get away from the blistering rays of the sun for a nap, and you can also use it as a convenient base camp where you store all your food and drinks.

When it comes to beach tents, there are a bunch of different choices to choose from. Take the CoolHut Shelter, for example. This funky looking shelter is more canopy than an actual tent. Although the design is similar to a typical tent, the CoolHut Shelter doesn’t have any walls, just a stretch of canvas to shelter the two seats below. The CoolHut Shelter is a great cabana to get if you’re going to be lounging somewhere scenic, and want a comfortable seat that doesn’t obstruct the view.

If you’re looking for a cabana that also doubles as a tent, then you’ll want to get the Beach Cabana from Gander Mountain. With its spacious, 64 square foot area, the Beach Cabana is the perfect beach companion, ideal for relaxing on the beach and escaping from the sun. The Beach Cabana can also easily be set up and taken down, so you won’t have to deal with the frustration of following complex instructions– just fold it right up, and its ready to go.

If you’re going to be enjoying the beach this 4th of July, or for the rest of the summer, make sure to bring along a beach cabana tent. It will change your beach going experience.

Now that summer has arrived, it’s time to clean up your bed sheets and coordinate them to the season.

The Summer of Denim White Jeans

Takeshi — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 22:00:21 +0000

It’s summer time, so it’s time to pack away your jeans and switch them out for cargoes and board shorts, right? Not necessarily. If you’re looking to switch over to a summer wardrobe with brighter colors and a more casual flavor, but aren’t ready to give up your jeans just yet, you might want to consider denim white jeans.

Denim white jeans look and feel just like regular blue jeans, except they haven’t been dyed with indigo, which gives traditional jeans their blue color. Instead, you get to enjoy the natural color of the denim, or the pure white of denim that’s been bleached.

Although they’re made from the same material, white denim jeans have a different personality than regular old blue jeans. Bleached white denim is very bright and bold, and displays a bit of confidence and playfulness of the wearer.

On women, bleached white denim goes great with bright colored tops and playful designs like polka dots, or for a more austere look, white denim also goes great with a black top. For those feeling really adventurous, white denim combined with a white top and white sandals creates a look that is both pristine and high fashion, that is sure to get attention.

For men, it takes a little bit of confidence to wear white denim, a pair of denim white jeans can be the perfect compliment to a hip hop or trendster look, that shows that you aren’t afraid to take chances with your style. For a more casual look, you’ll want to go with more of an off-white colored jeans. Pair this with a loosely unbuttoned collared shirt and a pair of casual sandals, and you’ll have the perfect attire for a walk across the beach. Off-white denim has a more casual, and careless feel, that’s perfect if you want to put together a look that’s a little messier and low-key than a pair of glowing bleached white jeans.

Whatever style you’re going for, denim white jeans are a great addition to your wardrobe. Combining the familiar comfort of jeans with a bright personality that’s perfect for the summer, white jeans are great for creating a bold and casual look. Just be careful to take good care of them, or you may end up with jeans of a different color than you started with!
