Vacation Inspirations

Every year my family takes a 10-14 day vacation to a family owned house on the beach front in Scarborough, Maine. This year, I’ve already started planning (slightly prematurely) what exactly I should be wearing and bringing, besides my usual simple plain tees, shorts, jeans, and hoodies for over my swimwear. I’d like to share with you my mid-summer vacation fashion inspirations.

(please note none of these images are my own. Almost ALL have been scrounged from Tumblr)

Things I’ll be sure to bring:

White denim

tribal top/s

caged wedges

long skirt

comfy knit (those Maine summer nights grow oh so cold!)

sneakers

tee shirts

Fringed tops

a nice dress, or four.

BOLD SWIMSUITS!

And just to warn you all, this vacation will be July 6-16th, so bear with me if my posting is sparse during those days, I may be too busy enjoying the sunshine and surf! 😀

Oh, and while jello shots are a definite, I think I’ll have to test my culinary skills to make these:

Any vacation I go on I plan way a head. I remember when I was getting ready to go to Miami I was buying things 2 months in advance. Nothing wrong with pre-packing lol. Love the photos, very inspiring esp. the light blue maxi dress.

I am attempting to look over your web site on my new iphone4, but its not functioning for some reason. Can you let me and other visitors know what we have to do to look over it through this type of device.
