Over here at Etsy’s Storque blog, we’ve been trolling for finds apropos of the summer boardwalk. While on our virtual stroll by the seaside, we found many a hot fish to fry, for both ladies and gents.

Just because it’s incredibly humid and smelly doesn’t mean you can’t look fantastic.

1. GOPHER Men’s shorts by Carter Safari
Cool men’s shorts are hard to find. These bring a burst of color to any man’s wardrobe which, let’s face it, shouldn’t be so drab in the summer. “Great for golfing.”

2. Stormcloud brings wwf panda camo electric tanker by CloudbringsRainbows.etsy.com
Another colorful pick for dudes. When you wear this tank top, you can be sure to get noticed, even if you’re “panda camo.”

3. Extra fold top bag in khaki beige by minus.etsy.com
A roomy canvas bag works as a summertime city bag, as well as a beach bag for guys. (Or the ladies!)

4. Jaguar Sunglasses from jenn3star.etsy.com
And here are the sunglasses. They’re vintage, so be careful not to scuff ’em up any more!

5. The Newfangled Zebra Eyeglass/Sunglass Case by ReiGN.etsy.com
Nothing is worse than finding the most perfect pair of sunglasses and then getting them all scratched up. (Or worse, sitting on them. We hate that.) ReiGN makes a nice unisex case.

6. SWIM SHORTS by unparalleledumbrella.etsy.com
Tiny ’60s inspired swim trunks are H.O.T. Menfolk, if you got it, flaunt it.

7. Vintage 1960s Tortoise Retro Cat Eye Frames from Chigal.etsy.com
Ladies love the cat eyes. Green lenses are a great touch for the vintage look.

8. Owl Cycling Cap by pauladeer.etsy.com
Pauladeer is a genius. Not only is this hat embroidered with a cute owl motif, it is also reversible!

9. Itsy Bitsy blue & white vintage terry towel bikini by VintageVacations.etsy.com
This terrycloth bikini is super cute! VintageVacations, who lives on the Isle of Wight, made this from old school fabric.

10. Reversible Bolero by freecoffeeclothing.etsy.com
Reversible = magic. Imagine wearing this darling blue number while sipping a pina colada under a fake palm tree. Spice up that sundress!

11. Back-Up Train Engineer Cap by superjennylove.etsy.com
Another very charming unisex cap to keep the sun from scorching your brains.

12. Blue and White Polka Dot Halter Sun Dress by TailorMadeVintage.etsy.com
When it’s truly sticky, a loose sundress is just about the only thing worth putting on. This one is refashioned from a vintage dress. Very nice!

13. Jump Jumper by ruffeoheartslilsnoty.etsy.com
Ladies, wearing such a very fresh and fun jumper might inspire you to have more fun at the seaside. Do the disco bumper cars!
