Summertime, and the livin’ is easy.
SORT OF. The heat may make me feel a lot more CASUAL, but I still want to look my best, even when lying on the sand catching a few rays. While I have a drawer full of great bathing suits (some of which I’ll be showing you on Monday), I’ve had a difficult time finding cover-ups that I ADORE.
UNTIL VERA BRADLEY
I realize now, that what I REALLY needed was something that was completely versatile and would coordinate for a pulled together look while at the pool, lake or shore. I’d been looking at cover-ups, which for a five footer like me tend to be OVERWHELMING (too much fabric). What I really needed was a simple SARONG. This way I can tie it into a dress for a great look on the boardwalk, or at my waistline while I’m walking in the waves.
Vera Bradley sent me some GREAT coordinating beach fashion to review and I feel like they RESCUED my summer! I’m no longer tossing Mr. S’s t-shirt over my glamorous skirted suit (ok, so I NEVER really threw Mr. S’s t-shirt over my suit…just making a point). I am now COORDINATED and ready for that cute lifeguard (who’s got to be 30+ years younger than me) to STARE as I kick at the waves & toss my hair- STOP LAUGHING.
With great summer beach gear like
You and I are going to look AMAZING as we stroll along the sand. OK, so maybe the lifeguards stopped looking at me 30 years ago, but I still feel confident and beautiful, and I’ve DEFINITELY got my “act together” in Vera Bradley. A WARNING! Expect to be stopped on the beach by women wanting to know “Where did you get that?” When you where Vera Bradley it just happens.
