The second I booked our tickets to Costa Rica, I immediately had to put the breaks on wanting to buy everrrything! And especially anything beach related until this month I gave myself the green light. Now, I started to find some amazing pieces, but what made sense to spend on or save on? The good news is that there are so many options at both prices. So what do you think I spent and saved on?
It's been a long time coming since the last time I left the country and it feels surreal that my trip to Costa Rica is a week away! But really the process of actually why and the how that adds to it all. This trip wouldn't be happening if my first trip 6 years ago never happened. Sometimes you talk to a complete stranger and never think much of it, just a genuine interest in that person at that moment in time. I just happened to talk to the right person because we clicked and we've been friends ever since. We've met up all over the US in these 6 years, but this is my first time revisiting. I can't wait! Aaaand I've been picking out what I want to bring. Hi, cute dress! Even though I'm a beach girl, I rarely wear a swimsuit. So when in Costa Rica....
Sure it's not technically Summer. Okay, okay, it's not that close. But it was 90 degrees yesterday and there's been a lot of ice cream this week. So if you ask me that counts as pretty close to Summer. And of course I've been shopping for all my Summer must haves.
Unlike years before, I got a jump start on the epitome of any Summer must have-the bathing suit. It took me awhile to take the plunge on this tribal one piece. I mean bathing suit shopping it hard enough, but buying it online seemed extra risky. Happy to say it's everything I hoped for! Here are some more one-piece swimsuits that caught my eye:
Last year, my go to hat was the classic panama hat and you can bet that I still will be reaching for it. So with all the fun in the sun that's bound to happen, I couldn't resist another addition or two. I opted for a black straw hat that's under $30! Turns out I love it so much that I'm ordering the natural straw version too! It was just restocked and I'm sure it will sell out.
Have you found yourself shopping for Summer already?
