summer vacation and ahhh! swimsuits!

I don’t know about you, but summer has always been a bit of a pain for me. My favorite season is fall – I love layers and boots and scarves. Summer with its tanks, shorts and, most of all, SWIMWEAR, isn’t really my thing.

It’s so hard for me to find a swimsuit – I have to make sure there’s coverage where their needs to be, but most of all I need to feel comfortable in it. It seems the key to that is options. I like a nice variety to choose from. Do I feel like a halter top this season or maybe a tankini? What’s going to be the most flattering? Do they have it in a color I like?

SO MANY THINGS!

Luckily, Old Navy has some pretty cute options this season. I’m feeling this adorable blue number at the moment. It doesn’t seem like something I feel like I would fall out of and the ruching will be super flattering as well.

So this summer, you can probably find me at the beach. But on the sand tanning though because really, Lake Michigan is kind of gross. I really need to make friends with someone who has a pool. So I’m now accepting application for pool friends. I’ll bring the booze, you provide the pool.

Also, I’m hoping to squeeze a couple weekend getaways into my summer. We’re thinking about a camping trip and then maybe another small trip, just a couple days away and a short drive from Chicago. (any suggestions?) And then there’s that bigger vacay that boyfriend and I were just talking about. That will will definitely include a beautiful beach and delicious ice cold drinks. Hopefully that will happen because we freaking deserve it.

Now that I type that out – summer plans make swimsuit shopping way more fun!

Thank you again to Old Navy for sponsoring my post. I was compensated for this post as a member of Clever Girls Collective, but the content is all my own.

    I have been so pleased with Old Navy’s and The Gap’s summer clothes this season. I got a swimsuit (similar to that one you posted, but without the ruche thing) from ON, as well as some of my new favorite tops. My favorite jeans this year are definitely Gap’s Always Skinny. Digging on this group’s style this year! :)
