so... summer?

Day light savings time is starting and spring break is nearing.
If you all are anything like me, you have summer on the mind.

I am most excited for our annual trip to Palm Springs (the place where I fell in love with Andrew)

And since I'm in the summer spirit, I will share my favorite summer essential: swimsuits.
For this summer I am really loving solid prints and high waisted bottoms.

Red is classic, you can't go wrong. Also I love the subtle button on the top. 

Perfect color for her skin tone!

The cutouts in this suit really make the outfit stand out with still being simple.
As summer approaches prepare yourself for more of my summer favs

Happy swimming readers!

Summer in Spring

i guess since I'm from southern california, summer is constantly on my mind.

Even though it's February, last weekend I was still able to chill by the pool.
Last Sunday, beautiful and sunny.

With my shape, finding swimsuits that make me feel comfortable, while still looking cute, is extremely challenging. 


If you have a bigger bust and a smaller waist, here are my tips for you.


1. Support is helpful (for me, necessary). Buy a suit that has straps. You may be running around the beach or playing volleyball in the pool, you don't want any awkward slips!

2. Buy a suit and bottoms separate. Face it, in a top you may be a x-large and in the bottoms you may be a small. Don't make one of your assets suffer. Please both areas by buying them separate

3. Choose a top that doesn't dictate the size of your boobs. When choosing tops always chose the tops where you are able to tie the neck and the back yourself. This way you are in control.

4. DIY! While on pinterest last week (yes I'm obsessed) I found a picture of someone using an old bra to make themselves a swimsuit. Great idea because then you will get the perfect fit!



Happy Swimming.
