Best of Swim and a little Roundup!

*Thank you to Nordstrom for Sponsoring today’s post, as always all opinions here are my own.

Happy Weekend Ladies! Dreaming of my recent warm weather vacay especially since the temps here at home are less than desirable! The suit I wore in Florida (so nice I bought it twice) has been a favorite for this year! We cannot ever go wrong with a classic black suit, so many cute ones to pick from, so scroll to the bottom for a few more favorite combinations! Nordstrom has so many great suits this year, so I thought I would go ahead a put together a little roundup on the blog of some of my favorite suits and coverups for your next trip or if you are looking for a new one this summer!

For almost all one piece swimsuits I size up in order to accommodate my longer torso. So my typical size would be a 10, but I bought a 12 in this and it fits great! Doesn’t pinch anywhere!

February Resort & Vacation Haul

Hey Ladies! Happy weekend! Prepping for a little time in the sunshine with my boys next week, so I thought I would share some swimsuit and resortwear considerations for a little getaway!

We are heading to Orlando, Florida we have been MANY MANY times and most recently in September– for those wondering what it’s like there now you can catch up on my last post here and another here of all we like to do!

Linking up all the looks here but make sure to check out my Instagram Stories for the full try on! 😉

Sizing: FYI on my sizes: I am 5-10 and a M/L top & 10/12 bottoms In swimsuits I always size up to an XL — no pinching and for length in the torso for one pieces. The denim shorts I go with the same theory and size up two from my typical denim size!

Summer Beach Trip ’19: Myrtle Beach

Hey Friends! I promised a Resort Recap from our Stay in Myrtle Beach! We all just had the best time! As you know we drove instead of flying, and I will say I was prepared for much worse (Since its about a 10 hour drive) but everyone did great! This trip we decided that with all the baseball travel and Madness of the summer, we really didn’t want to do much exploring s much as we wanted to enjoy our resort and the beach and just CHILL. And CHILL we did. Honestly I sat so long my bones started to hurt. LOL — Anyway here’s what we thought.

RESORT: We stayed at the Embassy Suites Hilton Myrtle Beach which has a combination of condos and hotel. So when you’re over in the hotel there’s two restaurants and several pools to pick from in addition to steps from the beach. Firstly I need to note, there’s couple things we didn’t know about the resort…. theres a HUGE breakfast buffet that the boys we nuts for. My husband and I however really loved the “Evening Reception” each night– light snack and cocktails! Most nights we ate in the Coastal Grille, which has a great grouper tacos! My husband and I even went and had a cocktail at the lobby bar a couple evenings while the boys meandered in the gift shop. There is a couple places you can go to if you need to snag a couple beach essentials maybe you forgot, but also theres a little snack bar that serves Starbucks coffee in the lobby! I’m telling you we really didn’t to leave at all!

Most days we switched back and forth between the Pool and the Beach. The pool offers a kids lazy river and a play area, so while the beach was amazing they really loved being able to go to the lazy river. Everything we did was steps from each other, and that made it really nice!

So the biggest thing about our trip that I don’t think I talked too much about on Instagram Stories, is that the service was AMAZING. The staff was always around and talking to the boys learning about their day and helping to make them feel special. The service to us is the real difference maker! We really didn’t want to come home and have to take another vacation- from our vacation!

Yes we could have picked a closer resort close to home, but this way we got to take the kids to beach, explore a bit but mostly CHILL. Everyone was happy and worn out at the end of the night– worth it! Presley cried the last night because he didn’t want to go home! I am so glad we took that trip, I encourage you if you are in the area to check out this resort! Kingston Resorts made the difference for us and our beach trip 2019!

Look Of the Day: Kimono Trend

Today’s look is SUCH a fun look for summer and its all centered around a VERY popular trend this summer. You can add a kimono to just about anything and takes your look to a whole new level!

I would definitely encourage you to try this trend and this outfit is a great place to start! It showcases the vibrancy of this kimono and can be worn to the pool or a party! I have linked not only this outfit, but a few other fun statement pieces to add to your Summer Style!

MomStyle Swim Roundup

Summer is here friends! Man did we have a terrific “Summer Kickoff” Weekend! I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend and are ready to tackle the week! Our weather is so hot lately so that leaves nothing else but just to get to the pool!  Over the weekend I showed you a couple pool styles, but I have more for ya!

That said, we need to  to get Pool and Beach ready ASAP! As requested, I have completed a huge roundup of  my favorite finds for this summer to get you beach and pool ready. I loved doing the shopping for you, and I think I have covered all the bases. I would love to hear your feedback on your selections, but also if there’s anything else you would love to see!
