Beach Style

I remember now why we only take the kids to the beach maybe once a month even though it only takes about 30 minutes to get there. We spent the morning at the beach and had so much fun! The afternoon alternated between bouts of extreme whininess and meltdown central. For both kids. I don't know why they like to award me with meltdowns for giving them a really fun time. You would think they'd be super nice so that they get to do something fun like that again soon. At least, that's what tried explaining to them!


Here I am looking down at a glob of seaweed and wondering why in the world I chose this spot for a picture...

Dress: Gift from my sis

Belt: Thrifted

Scarf & Bracelets: Target

Sandals: Borrowed from my sis

Several people suggested that I try a scarf in my hair for beach days. Well, let me say, I thought it looked really cute. However, it just wasn't very practical in this Florida humidity! My head and neck were a hot, sweaty mess. I don't know if I was using the wrong sort of scarf or if maybe I was styling it wrong somehow... but it was hot! I think, next time, I might try a headband or a floppy hat or something.
