Beach Threads

Due to playing the packing game, I didn't take photos of everything I'm hauling down to the beach this weekend, but most of the big stuff is here.




*NY&Co wedges, knot heels from Target, Jessica Simpson wedges. ($6/ hand-me-downs/$5).




*Olive green Loft skirt, Charlotte Russe knit sweater, aqua cardi from Nordstrom, pink leopard-print bathing suit cover up. ($5.75/$4.75/$13/$15 @ Walmart).




*Deep teal Banana Republic 3/4-length button down, Apt. 9 long-sleeved ruffle blouse, NY&Co blue and white striped cap-sleeve button down. ($2.50/$4.75/$7).




*Indigo empire-waist mini dress (no label), white eyelet dress, blue paisley French Connection dress. ($3.38/$10/$3.38).

*Nine West canvas tote, black leather crossbody minibag, hot pink clutch. ($6.20/$10/$2).




*Belts: polka dot skinny (came with a sweater years ago), arrowhead wide stretch ($2), black lattice ($12 @ NY&Co several seasons ago), striped wide stretch ($5 F21).


I have cami-style tank tops in the same colors as the print on the tote, plus one in aqua, as well as navy blue leggings, a black halter top and my bathing suits going with me. I'm sticking with a mostly natural palette, with a bit of black and white thrown in for good measure. And as you can tell, I wear a lot of blue. I love the way blues blend together: navy and aqua, powder and indigo. I think the hot pink and bits of olive, purple, coral and mustard will stand out quite nicely against all the blue.


I'm excited, but I've got to finish figuring out how to get it all in my suitcase. Good times!
