I went on vacation for a mere 6 days.
Unsurprisingly, my writing/style addiction got the best of me.
It was a primarily relaxing trip.
Fort Myers Beach, FL: So gorg, so easygoing. But there were down points.
After hunting down a local spot for my sugarfree & soy cappuccino…The Tuckaway Bagel, uber-delish… I couldn’t help but notice all the bling & neon flash on the beach bods all around me.
My stress levels peaked at the sight of such brights/ bedazzlements done all wrong.
A for effort but overall FAIL. Let’s work together on this one, guys.
Epiphany:
Accommodate the trendiest taste on the beach-front surf shops of Smalltown, USA. With eyes wide open, I believed & achieved.
The 90’s are so right NOW & so are these (uber-reasonable) pieces. Live/Love/Die for it.
Mix these pieces with studded denim shorts &/or a white fringe tank (maybe with some Jeffrey Campbell Litas you just so happened to order?) So set.
Onward:
 |
| Be that hot: $14.99 [CVS] |
 |
| Dreams come true: $14.99 [CVS] |
 |
| So totally Malibu Barbie: $4 [ Random Bait Shop .?.?. Right?!? ] |
 |
| Flirty backside. |
 |
| Don’t act like hotpants aren’t your fav this summer: $14 [ Shipwreck Motel Gift Shop ] |
 |
| So “Sun Valley” Cher: $8 [ Shout out to my peeps at Swimmin N’ Sunshine! ] |
 |
| The peace signs hold a particular 90’s vibe, but go any way for a hint of retro: $2 [ THRIFT ] |
 |
| FRILLY. BLOOMER. HOTPANT. SHORTS: $15 [ Mango Bay ] |
 |
| Biker bitch: $6 [ um…too many margaritas…? ] |
 |
| A mid-waisted, wide leg linen pant w/ rope belt for Mom: $20 [ Swimmin N’ Sunshine ] |
 |
| My new pal: $6 [ THRIFT ] |
Now, I feel better. Grab these goodies & update that worrisome wardrobe.
You’ll (look &) feel better too.
Remember, I do this out of love:
DO NOT SUCCUMB TO THE PUKA SHELL NECKLACE, PEOPLE…So not hot.
Plenty more to be discovered at:
Local Color, Winds, South Seas Trader, East Winds & Aloha, just to name a few. And don’t forget all the resale/ bait/ gift/ WhateverTheHellTheyWantToSellUnderOneRoof shops.
