I have two warm getaways quickly approaching and resort style is always on my mind. I'm trying to mostly stick to my clothes from last summer but it's hard to ignore all the fresh styles for this upcoming season.
Beach dresses are my favorite item to pack; they can last you all day whether on the beach, at the pool bar or even doing activities around the resort. Bright jewelry, especially a tassel, is something I can't seem to take my eye off this year. Tassels on purses too - love! Fringe sandals can match any outfit and is another trend I can't stay away from. I'm a sucker for bright makeup cases and pool bags - how can you say no? I'm loving how feminine the gorgeous one pieces that keep hitting the shelves are. Floral dresses never go out of style and can easily fill much of my suitcase. Sunglasses and beach hats the perfect accessory to round out your packing; you can't beat the sun without them.

Other Happenings:
+ People magazine ranked all of the vacations of the Real Housewives (from all cities) by most dramatic. It was an interesting read but also definitely had me adding some future locations to our wanderlust list.
+ The Bachelor is really heating up and Chris Harrison gave a few interviews recently. Here about what he does during the dates and here about how long he just renewed his contract for (hint - The Bachelor is still safe for at least five years!) On the note of the show, this workout would definitely burn a lot of calories as many enjoy lots of sips of wine during each episode.
+ There were a lot of questions about where I got the glass containers for the nacho bar I shared earlier this week. They can be found right here and my other set here (and are just $9.99/$14.99 for a set of four!)
+ I didn't even watch the Grammy's (oops!) but were Sam Hunt and Carrie Underwood not ah-mazing?? Two of my favorites (video here)
+ This is not intentionally so TV/Gossip/Entertainment heavy but just one more thing for today in that category. I think most people are just as obsessed as I am with the O.J. series. This article gives some behind the scenes details of filming and such.
+ Holly recently shared a beef tenderloin with blue cheese sauce (yum!) that looks delicious and Emily shared some chili braised pork chops that look like a fantastic meal. Finding new recipes makes our weeknight cooking much more enjoyable!
Happy weekend everyone. Cheers! xx
I love that black and white one piece! I think I need to get a one piece this year but I need a stylish one like the one you have in your collage.

YES! THis is what I need after all the snow!
ReplyDeleteSo many cute things! I am on the hunt for a new make up bag - I need to check that out. The tassel purse is so fun and color. That one piece is perfect - still shows a bit of skin, but is covering. And I am loving that floral dress. Like I said SO MANY cute things!
ReplyDeleteAdorable and you have 2 vacays coming up to warm destinations...yay!!! Hope your weekend is amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI bought the Kate Spade fit and flare bow dress this week!! I love that one too! For some reason I kept thinking it was a swimsuit cover up!! Either way. Love!
ReplyDeleteLOVEEE that pool bag! I need a new beach bag this season and that may be the one!

Love, love all of those precious clothes! I can't wait until baby is here (and I'm back to pre-pregnancy weight) to wear all of my fun spring clothes. And yes on the OJ series; obsessed!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you shop for bathing suits? I need new suggestions!
ReplyDeleteI am so ready for the spring weather and bright clothes!! Love all the items you picked :) I'm loving this season of the Bachelor. I'm hoping to find the big wedding special from last Sunday so I can watch it while the hubby works this weekend
ReplyDeleteThat beach bag is so cute. Lucky gal with 2 warm weather vacations soon. It's cold up here and we are possibly getting another snowstorm next week. The groundhog totally lied to us. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteYes to all of those things in your collage. Love it all!! I'll join you on a beach vacation too. :-) Have a fabulous weekend! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm obsessed with floral prints so that dress is right up my alley! Yay for your getaways approaching! Have a great weekend.

I might be the ONLY one not ready for Spring, LOL! Our winter hasn't been very cold, so I fear that our Spring and Summer months are going to be HOT here in Texas. I have the OJ series recorded, need to watch ASAP!

We are still trying to narrow down where we want to go on vacation, and I'm getting to the point where I don't care as long as it's hot and we go soon! I am more than ready for some hot sun! Have the best weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove the Harrison links! And when I think of beach clothes, I think of you! You pull them off so well!
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch the Grammys either (whoops), as I totally forgot it was even coming up. With the exception of a select few, I feel the music industry is very lackluster and not comprised of true raw talent anymore and it's so sad. Love that Chris Harrison article, man it must be nice to be him! And loving your resort wear picks! Especially those sunnies and that beach hat. Happy Friday <3

ReplyDeleteI bought that beach cover up last year in black and am O B S E S S E D with it! So happy to see that they have it back in stock in more colors!! Enjoy your weekend!! (:
ReplyDeleteLIFE AS YOU LIVE IT
I want that coverup! I love the print. I can't wait for warmer weather when I can just throw on a dress and not have to think about matching my outfit pieces.
