Fancy beach towels are probably impractical (sand + wetness + occasional chlorine + sunshine = short lifespan). So why spend a little extra to get a fancy one you ask? Because you're human and you can't help it (it's ok - you're not alone).
Justifications for splurging on a fancy beach towel:
1. They are usually softer, and softer is better when talking beach towels.
2. They are usually larger, and size always matters :)
3. If you close your eyes, a fancy beach towel makes a fancier beach goer.
4. Maybe, just maybe, because they are fancier they will actually last longer!
5. They are BEAUTIFUL and put the style back into a day at the beach.
