Boho at the Beach

So as I was going through my phone yesterday (trying desperately to purge some of the 1,000+ pictures I'm currently hoarding) I found some outfit snaps from the beginning of summer that I never got around to posting. It's so crazy that these pictures were taken almost two months ago - why oh why does summer seem to get shorter every year? This was my last "real" summer to relax, travel, and do nothing since I'll (hopefully) have a career the next time this year, and I definitely enjoyed being able to go wherever I wanted, whenever I wanted without having to worry about school or work. However, all good things must come to an end. We wouldn't appreciate our down time without the busy times in between.

I wore this outfit to dinner one night during our beach vacation and really loved it's easy simplicity and balanced mix of preppy and boho. My white Old Navy skinnies are definitely a huge summer staple since they pair with just about anything (like this embroidered blouse at J. Crew Factory). I'd be lying if I said this outfit hasn't been in heavy rotation throughout the past few months #outfitrepeater. If it ain't broke, don't fix it - right?

Sigh, I've already lost so much of the tan I had in these pictures. Summer is definitely winding down, but I'm determined to make these last two weeks count. Here's to soaking up the last couple weeks of freedom before starting my new job at Disney! If you need me I'll be pool/beach-side with a book in hand. xo
