Best of Summer Swimwear 2018

Now that it's mid summer ( cue the tears) I just don't ever want to say goodbye to summer days and nights. There's so many swim options for various body types and tastes with style. Some of my favorite looks are currently on sale and many could even be worn out as a top or bodysuit look. 

I love to mix and match some of my tops and bottoms and always have a basic black swimsuit on hand. Perfectly flattering and best for those hot tubs that can break down the colors in a bright swimsuit from the chlorine. 

These are some of my favorites from the past few summers that I've traveled with from the pool to the ocean !

California Trip Outfits on Sale!

Happy long weekend! I've rounded up a lot of my outfits from my California trip this spring. So many items are on sale and there's a ton of extra promo codes from retailers. I had brought a ton of casual outfits that I was able to transition from a day full of exploring then out to lunch or dinner. There's so many different ways these pieces can be paired together. I’m linking everything below in the widget so scroll through. My pullover from Banana Republic is unavailable but I was able to find similar looks for most. Happy sale shopping! 

Carmel by the Sea + Date Night Outfit

This past week my husband and I flew to Cali for my spring break and spent it with family just in time for Easter. It was such a refreshing change to get in some sun and be without a coat! It's amazing what a little vitamin D can do for my mood and motivation! So over the winter blues. I'm so ready for shorts weather, now if only it would start feeling like spring in NYC!

While on our trip we made a bunch of day trips and we traveled back to Carmel by the Sea and Monterey to spend the night on the coast. This is one of my favorite spots, I just love the boutiques and quaint homes leading the way to the beach! I was smitten with all of the galleries and shops throughout the small beach town and this time of year it wasn't crowded so it felt relaxing and was quiet. The different climates in Cali can be so confusing and by evening on the water it would get cool. Before dinner we walked to the beach for the sunset then had some delicious gnocchi at an amazing Italian spot that felt like your grandmother's old home. It was called Casanova's and came highly recommended. If you're ever in the area, make a dinner reservation and enjoy the wine from the region! Monterey has some of the best around and there's plenty of places to stop in for tastings. 

My top has been selling out super fast since it was marked down so I've got a roundup or similar options in the widget below you can click through. I've also found similar bags to my sold out option here and this one is on sale for an additional 25% off! 

Hope everyone has had a great weekend!
