Wine Accessories Every Wine-Lover Needs

by Kiersten Hickman

It's the holiday of all holidays — that day that millennial girls go crazy for. The one that, I assume, all liquor stores dream of. What holiday, you ask? Oh, just May 25, National Wine Day. The most important day of the entire year. If you are partaking on this significant holiday, then it's time to gear up with one of these wine accessories for wine-lovers that will match your vino-shaped heart.

Make sure to mark you calendars, because National Wine Day is on Thursday. I highly recommend just taking the next day of work off — because, you know, wine hangovers. And brunch the day after (with prosecco, because #wine) sounds delightful.

Now I know National Drink Wine Day was in February, so there really are two days to celebrate drinking wine. But this isn't just celebrating the act of drinking it — but the love for wine itself. These wine accessories not only help you to drink your wine, but to truly live the life of a wine lover. Below you will find apparel, gadgets, to-go bags, and even some to-go cups perfect for a day on the beach. Yes, that's right - wine on the beach. It's amazing.

So I hope you'll join me this National Wine Day — because wine just makes the world a happy place.
