Hello there, in today's blog post I will be giving you tips on how to dress fashionably and comfortably for the beach, pool, lake, etc.!
Tip #1) Simple can Mean Stylish Too.
If you're going swimming and plan on wearing an outfit over your swimsuit this tip is for you! The outfit over your swimsuit doesn't need to look refined (you'll probably only wear it for a short time then take it off later). In my opinion, simple outfits look best. A really nice, put-together outfit doesn't really coordinate well with a swimsuit, but don't get discouraged yet because simple can mean stylish too. What I mean by that is dressing simple doesn't exactly mean boring and plain all the time. Simple in this case means you should dress with style, but don't overdo it. A solid colored shirt (a color that says "Beach, here I come!"), shorts (I prefer neutral colored ones), some sandals or flip flops that compliment your look, and boom! You've accomplished a very simple, but cute outfit for the beach! I would add a very small piece of jewelry to my outfit to complete the look. I just can't help it, j'adore les bijoux ! (I love jewelry- My French is improving😉)
Tip #2) #BBB - Big, Beautiful, Bag.
Bringing a bag to the beach (a big,beautiful, one at that) is a great idea! When you have sunglasses, sunscreen, flip flops, clothes, a towel, many other necessities and extras, a bag will come in handy. Make sure your bag is a suitable size, nice quality (to hold all that stuff you're trying to carry), and compliments your outfit (of course). I added beautiful in BBB because 1) having a pretty bag you like just makes things better, and 2) I really wanted there to be three B's :)
Tip #3) Maxi Skirts.
Maxi skirts are one of the many trends this summer! I enjoy pairing them with flat sandals, flip flops, and floppy hats. Maxi skirts are probably one my my favorite ways to wear a skirt. They're long (being modest is always in), and there are so many beach outfits I could create with them! They're not hard to style. I advise that you find a great way to style a maxi dress and wear it the next time you go to the beach!
Tip #4) #TwiningWithTheBeach.🌊🌴
I totally recommend having a twining day with the beach! What I mean is, you should try putting together a beach-colored coordinated outfit. Lets say the beach you're headed to right now has beautiful white sand and tons of palm trees. A white top, light army green shorts (the shade you should wear depends on the color green the palm tree has), white sandals, dainty beach-themed bracelet, and a BBB (big, beautiful, bag) to finish your look! Another good outfit idea would be a blue top that compliments the ocean, a white maxi dress, a tan scarf (worn as a headband), tan sandals or flip flops, beach-themed ankle bracelet, and a patterned or printed BBB.
Tip #5) Ready to Reach the Beach.
Never hold back on being yourself and owning your style! Never let other people dress you, always dress yourself. When you let other people decide what you wear it, takes some of the joy out of dressing up. Another thing to remember is not to be concerned about your outfit. Yes, dressing up for the beach is so much fun, but if you can't find anything to wear don't get upset. It's more than ok to just throw some clothes on and be done because in the end all that really matters is 1) Having fun at the beach and 2) God knows you're an amazing, beautiful princess no matter what you're wearing. Now that you've read all my tips, you're finally ready to reach the beach!
