Style

I love the look of a fresh, white cover up for summer & this one from Revolve did the trick for our vacation. It was breezy with a little bit of detail in the sleeve and front. The best part was that it was only $30. Below are cute, affordable options from Revolve & ASOS (all under $65).

Also, I paired it with one of my favorite Target black one pieces. You can’t go wrong with a chic, simple suit!

I normally don’t wear bright colors and like to stick with neutrals, black & white. But considering the tropical location, I wanted a fun pop of color for our friend’s wedding. After searching online, I found this dress from Lulu’s.com and fell in love with the criss cross back (they have it in several different colors). Bright, check. Flowy, check. Dramatic, check. Please ignore my prom hair…we thought it would be fun to get our hair done at the resort. My “loose updo” request started to give me flashbacks from high school while K-Ci & Jojo started to play in my head. At least it was off my face and out of my way because the beach reception was very windy.

If you haven’t checked out Lulus.com, you should give it a shot. They have a good variety of trendy dresses that are great for events like showers or weddings. A few of my favorite picks are below. Many of the dresses come in multiple color ways. The more options, the better! The reasonable prices are hard to beat as sometimes I don’t want to invest in dresses I will only wear a few times. I most likely will not be wearing this dress to a church wedding due to the amount of skin shown. But it was perfect for a warm beach wedding!

Thank goodness one piece swimsuits are becoming more & more popular. After having a baby last year, I feel more comfortable without my stomach showing & less pressure to have 6 pack abs. There are many fun, trendy options on the market & grateful that we aren’t stuck with just large, floral printed granny suits. I am in love with this suit from Anthropologie and the lace detailing is beautiful. I may have to add this to my collection before the summer ends.

 I purchased the DKNY suit pictured above from Zappos a few years ago. The stripe pattern is flattering and the color is a nice pop. The only drawback with a one shoulder swimsuit is the uneven tan lines that it leaves. This suit didn’t see much pool time due to the intense Mexican sun, but I did enjoy having it as a bright option.
