Cash or Credit - Beachwear

When I shop for a coverup I am always looking for it to serve as not only something comfortable to lounge in around the pool or the beach but also a style that can easily take you from the seaside to a restaurant and beyond. So when I saw this Tory Burch knit dress I thought it perfectly fit the bill for all of the above. However it's price tag was a bit more then what I like to spend on something that will likely get sprayed with sunscreen and or get a daiquiri or two spilled on it. Then today I cam across this picture on instagram of a fellow curvy gal and thought it was a great look a like for a fraction of the cost. I added a beautiful coral one piece and neutral accessories to complete the look. An effortlessly chic look at two very different price points.

Cash Or Credit - Jump Around

It may be Monday but I have nothing but the Fourth of July weekend on my brain. I am so looking forward to head to Shelter Island for some time with my guy and family. Since I tend to overpack no matter where we go (and it completely makes my husband crazy), I am planning my outfits ahead of time and trying to be strategic on what won't take up a lot of space in my weekender. The answer for me is packing one garment outfits like dresses and jumpsuits. Nothing is easier and more comfortable then throwing on a single item and having an instant outfit. I have been living in them this summer for comfort and ease. They translate so well as a day time look as a coverup or comfy outfit doing errands in to swapping out some dressier shoes and clutch for an evening out. To get my favorite look of the summer below I put together two nearly identical outfits at two very different price points.
