Beach Casual Style

I was in the Outer Banks last week so I had a chance to work on my beach casual look.  I only packed a pair of flip flops for my trip and didn't style my hair the whole weekend. The whole week consisted of beach waves and beach cover ups!

Day Look

My new Emilie M Aimee canvas bag is just the right size to fit all of my beach essentials and also transitions nicely for night. I got a ton of compliments on this bag all week long. For trips to the beach and pool, I packed my bag full with my Turkish-T Towel, Neutrogena SPF 55, my Nexus 7 tablet loaded with the new James Patterson book, Mistress, Lip Smacker Lip Balm with SPF, and sunglasses. Half the time I was there I rocked an Old Navy maternity two piece, and the other days I was bold and wore a regular bikini (embrace the bump!). 

Night Look

I took my sunscreen out of my Emilie M bag and replaced it with my wallet and MAC lip gloss. I have been loving Old Navy's maternity dresses for day and night. They are extremely comfortable. I paired my dress with a fun necklace, my new Michael Kors watch, and flip flops, and I was ready to go!

What's in My Beach Bag? - Jordi Flip Flops

In the Summer, I live in flip flops. Even when I wear heels to work, I still slip on a pair of flip flops to wear to and from the parking garage. To complicate things, I'm one of those people who always have to coordinate everything, down to my footwear.

The solution to my madness: Lindsay Phillips Jordi Flip Flops. I wrote about these last year, but the design options since then have multiplied! Jordi Flip Flops are like your typical essential flip flops, but allow you to change the embellishment for your flip flops, so you can coordinate with all your outfits!

The Jordi flip flops come in several fun colors, as well as the staples like white and black, and all come with a rhinestone bubble embellishment which is super cute. It gets a bit addicting once you start buying the embellishments because the designs are endless!

Flojos Review & Giveaway!

I love flip flops for summer, but I always look for ones with a little lift or wedge on them. At 5 feet 2 inches tall, I look to heels and wedges to give me an inch or two in height. Flojos have a wide range of flip flops, including ones with wedges that are totally up my alley.
The Carrie wedges can be paired with a swim suit and cover up during the day, or a sundress at night. They are so comfortable, and I can barely tell when walking that they're not flat. These have been my go-to slip on's for summer. I can't tell you how many compliments I've received on these!The Miranda flats, take note to the Sex in the City character names, are also super cute. I haven't tried these out, but I will say that I am confident in their cuteness since they have the same braided straps the Carrie wedges have. The hemp-like weave is very surfer girl!

Get Ready...Set...Coordinate!

These are genius! For someone like me who lives in flip flops May - September these are a dream come true. SwitchFlops allow you to easily switch and trade the top straps to coordinate with your outfit. I wore these all summer long and switched the top strap to match my different bathing suits and sundresses.

Lindsay Phillips is the energetic inspiration and founder of SwitchFlops. Her idea for SwitchFlops came from a high school art project! Her strap designs are influenced by her voyage around the world on the Semester at Sea and her travels to Europe. Her motto is: "Change your look, not your sole."

The newest design features a Breast Cancer Awareness ribbon and 25% of the purchase price to breast cancer research.

I suggest stocking up on these for next summer so you are ready to coordinate! Find the retail location nearest you.
