Things are really starting to heat up around here (and we’re not just talking about the weather outside). In tandem with the rise in temperature, retailers like T.J. Maxx and Target have begun to inundate us with plenty of bright and sunny, summer-ready finds perfect for enjoying the long, protracted days ahead of us—and we haven’t even made it halfway through spring! As blurred as the lines between spring and summer may be, there’s no rule that says you have to wait until it’s hot enough to fry an egg on the pavement to get outside and soak up some rays.

In continued support of our efforts to catch as much sun as possible this season, Target has taken on the task of becoming our go-to spot for everything we need to enjoy the sun-soaked weather via their incredibly trendy Sun Squad collection. From cutesy pineapple-shaped glasses to adorable 2-in-1 ice cream scoops that double as cones, you’re sure to find all your summer essentials and then some. And while it’s hard to top the genius that is a 2-in-1 ice cream scoop, the retailer is known to constantly up the ante, and their latest super cool offering does just that.

Furthering their commitment to ensuring this summer is one for the books, Target added a stunning Soft Sided Picnic Cooler by Sun Squad to their positively sunny lineup, and it’s a must-have for all the outdoor picnics and lunches we’re planning for the summertime. First and foremost, the cooler comes in two vibrant and fun prints—a beachy multi-stripe and a beautiful blue checkerboard pattern. In terms of capacity, the 13.5-quart vessel can fit a whopping 36 cans inside, and the aluminum lining ensures your beverages and salads stay cool without the need for additional ice.

Additionally, the cooler folds down for easy storage when not in use and comes with an included cup holder and adjustable straps. Something this innovative could easily fetch top dollar, but true to Target’s usual style, it’ll only set you back a cool $20. The only left to do is pack up your cooler, find the perfect sun-drenched spot, lay out a blanket and chill.
