For most of my life, I have lived close to the beach in Southern California. I love everything about the coastal vibe. There is just something so refreshing about a nautical color scheme and great beach accents. Whether you are near the coast or miles away, summertime is the best time of year to get your coastal vibe on. Here are my top picks for kicking up your patio, deck or porch with a cool and coastal vibe. — Courtney from A Thoughtful Place

There is no question that I am crazy for stripes. I love them in every room, but they are especially appropriate in a beach vibe. The blue and white is classic and will freshen up any space, indoor or out.

Who is ready for an outdoor picnic? This is sure to set the scene for a beach-like atmosphere. I would actually drape this blanket over my outdoor table as a tablecloth and pair it with bold pillows and a fun tablescape. This is one of my favorite items.

If you are headed down to the beach, this is the perfect table to take. I have one and use it all the time. The legs come off, and it actually rolls up to fit in a bag. It's great for summertime picnics, beach outings and concerts in the park.

This is such a sweet way to add a nautical feel to your space. The rope adds just enough charm and texture. You could fill it with flowers or leave it just as is.

| Fill this up with a signature cocktail or flavored water, and you have a refreshing drink to enjoy all day long. I fill mine with water and fresh strawberries and allow the kiddos to help themselves throughout the day. |

Coral is here to stay. It's an easy way to add the beach vibe either indoors or out. I may use this atop a stack of books in my living room but pull it outside to use when entertaining. It's a great and easy accent.
