Ohhh, what do we have here?  Another Friday?  Well count me in, friends, because there’s just nothing better.  And here we are at the start of summer, so let’s talk swimsuits once again, shall we?  Well I’m here to bring a little blast from my teenage past – tankinis!

They were my first dip into the two-piece swimsuit pool back in the day, and I felt pretty freaking cool about myself.  Fast forward (quite) a few years, and I thought my tankini days were done.  But hey 2017, we’re bringing it back.  And they’re just as great as I remember.

The two in today’s post are so great for a variety of sizes (Hey D-cup girls!), and they’re super comfy for all day wear.  Weather you’re looking to get sporty on the beach or trying to get your sandy nap on, I can’t say enough good things about these suits.  They’re supportive and versatile – wear ’em as-is, tie them in a knot, add a little coverup, whatever you wanna do, girl.  (Also, so great for long torso girls like myself who have troubles with most one-piece suits – hashtag, thumbs up.)  I’m here to tell you, the tank suit is back in our 30’s, friends, and I’m not mad about it.

Hope you gals have a great weekend!

When packing for someplace tropical (or just beating the heat at home during the summer), you probably don’t immediately think of an activewear line to stock up on essentials.  Well, think again, friends.  Today I’m sharing one of my favorite little dresses from my recent trip to Mexico, and it’s from my very favorite activewear line, lucy.

I’ve been a fan of lucy’s leggings and tanks for years for actually working out, but in recent seasons, I’ve especially gravitated towards their dresses, jumpers, and separates to support my love of all things athleisure.  Today’s midi dress is just about as lightweight as they come, has a mesh detail in the back for added ventilation, and is just SO comfortable.  After a day in the sun or night out, it was pretty much the only dress I wanted to throw on and wear all day.  Plus, the fabric is so great for packing and travel because it stays pretty wrinkle-free and won’t look like a hot mess when you pull it out of your suitcase.

Other travel-friendly favorites include these denim-look leggings that are perfect for the plane, these easy crops that I want to live in, and this lightweight wrap cardigan that’s a go-to for chilly nights.  Well, and maybe this little jacket top too.  And everything else below.  When everything is this cute and comfy, picking favorites is hard to do!  Hope everyone’s week is off to a great start!
