it’s march 4th, and here in the tri-state area, we’re (hopefully) about 8 weeks away from consistently warmer weather… which means you’re either getting your beach body ready to debut, or you’re impatiently jetting off to some exotic locale for a bit of relief from the cold. either way, it’s time to start thinking about 2018 swimwear so i’m featuring some suits in one of my favorite silhouettes: high neck. read on for more!

onepieces were in full swing this summer, and while fall is slowly creeping up on us, it won’t be long before we all (at least the east coast crew) will be looking to jet off to somewhere warm for a long weekend — so put down the pumpkin spice and take notes, because today i’m showing off one simple, solid swimsuit worn in two very different looks/styles!  Continue reading “styling solid swimwear”

pics unplanned: how ignoring routine led to quality content, more downtime & tons of fun!

the hubby and i recently spent a sunday with friends at long beach. we took an 8:42am train out there in an effort to make the most of our day – meaning we had to leave our apartment by 7:30. that’s code for “minimal hair, makeup & outfit effort”. so i thought, contrary to most of my other swimwear posts, that i would put together an entry showcasing the most basic and easy beach look that you can throw together in five minutes or less.  Continue reading “pics unplanned: how ignoring routine led to quality content, more downtime & tons of fun!”
