Fashion Fix {Our Favorite Becca Swimsuits}

Jen is on vacation this week and we will be on vacation next week!  Our trip is something we rescheduled from last year and I cannot wait!  We're pretty much going to be living in swimsuits so I knew I wanted to grab another one or two for our trip. I usually have a lot of luck at Target for less expensive suits, but if I want something that is going to last and make me feel like a million bucks, I always turn to Becca swimsuits.  Jen and I both own several of hers and love them!  The cut, style, lace details and coverage are perfect on her suits. They are all super sophisticated looking to me and really help you feel confident in a swimsuit, which isn't an easy thing to do. Plus, every time I wear one of them I get compliments!  

Crochet One Piece 

I've only ever tried her one piece suits so this year I ordered two bikinis to try.  They are going to show up right before my trip so I'm keeping my fingers crossed they will fit! In all of my online shopping I found some REALLY adorable styles I thought I would share because I had such a hard time narrowing it down.  These are not cheap and y'all should know by now that I am ALWAYS a bargain shopper. However, in my opinion this is one of those things that are just worth the cost.

Swim Cover-Ups Under $25

 Okay friends, it's that time of year again - swimsuit season.  Each year we approach this season with both trepidation (the swimsuit trying on experience) and excitement (the freedom that is SUMMER!). This is the South and swimsuits are a form of formal party attire once it gets above 90 degrees. So, we embrace our swimsuit bodies and all the fun accessories that we can politely get away with. This includes having an array of cover-ups.  

On our girls day out a few weeks ago we realized we both needed an update in the cover-up department. Don't get us wrong, we have a lot of cover-ups, but between roughly six months of beach, boat, pool, repeat - they get their wear and tear. 

Because of that we like to not spend a ton of money on them. We both found a TON of great options under $25! A few of the ones we ordered have already started arriving and since be both have had warm weather vacations over the last few weeks, we've been able to give the thumbs up or thumbs down to quite a few. 

Here's a peek at some of our current favorites...

This ruffle sleeve pom cover-up comes in a ton of fun colors. We opted for light blue color, but already have our eye on a few more colors because the quality of this one is so good for the price!

And speaking of poms, this colorful pom cover-up is amazing!! It's slightly sheer, but still has great coverage. It's another one that comes in a ton of fun colors. 

There is also an open tie front version of it that is also super cute. Adding to our carts as we type!

These smocked wide leg pants were on major repeat during a recent beach trip.  They are light, breezy and come with a stretchy smocked band that is super flattering. They come in a ton of patterns and colors, but we went with classic black.

The reviews are mixed on them, but from what we can tell they are amazing so far and hold up well, so maybe it depends on the person and ordering the correct sizing. I ordered my normal size small and they fit perfect. Maybe even a little oversized, but that just added to the comfort of them. 

Here are just a few other fun cover-up styles we found for under $25! 

1: Blue Tie Dye Kimono

2: White Romper

3: Blue Wrap 

4: Chiffon Tassel Cover-up (comes in a ton of colors!)

5: Striped Romper (comes in several color options!)

6: White button front maxi

7: Shirt Dress Cover-up (comes in a ton of colors!)

8: Crochet front maxi

(not pictured)

9: Mesh casual waist cover-up (love this one!)

10: Printed Beach pants

11: Tie Dye Kimono (several color options)

12: Duster Cover-up (a Target customer favorite!)

13: Midi length side slit cover-up (super cute and comes in another color!)

14: Black lace cover-up

15: White mesh tie cover-up

Friday Favorites: Our Favorite One Piece Swimsuits

Happy Friday!  Usually after a 3 day weekend the week flies by, but that just isn't the case this week. It has DRAGGED!!!!  The weather hasn't been great and it's hard with the kids home all day with nothing to do now that school is over. There are no camps, no sports this week and we can't go to the movies or trampoline parks or anything we would normally do on a rainy summer day. Here's hoping for sunny summer days ahead!

Today I wanted to share some of my favorite one piece swimsuits!  I had a friend ask me the other day about this topic and so I figured I would do a blog post about it!

Our FAVORITE suit last summer was THIS ONE!  We even showed up at the lake one day twinning! 

I know a lot of moms don't feel comfortable wearing a bikini anymore and even if you do there are times that you just want to be a little more covered up.  Especially when you want to be the fun mom and do things like jump in the pool or go down the water slides...something we've been known for a time or two.

Being FUN MOMS!!!  Both of our suits in this pic are from Nip Tuck Swim! 

The good news is that one piece swimsuits are totally on trend this summer and we did a little round up of some of our very favorites!  

Black one shoulder - The one shoulder trend is SO popular this year!

Blue ruffle stripe - This suit is adorable and we love the girly details!

One shoulder ruffle - This one comes in a TON of colors and has over 1,000 great reviews!!!

Orange color block - We love the color blocking on this one and it also comes in a teal and pink color block.

Tropical palm leaves - This is another one that has TONS of great reviews and comes in a bunch of different colors/patterns.  The cut of it and the placement of the mesh straps are SUPER flattering.

Black crochet - This was our favorite last summer and is still available in a few sizes.  There is also an updated version HERE.

Orange ruffle - This suit is so cute on and we love the ruffles! It comes in a bunch of colors and also has a bunch of great reviews.

Leopard one shoulder - You know us and our love of animal print!  Combine it with a one shoulder suit and we are in love!

Blue lace - OK, this one is a little more revealing than some of the others, but it is so pretty and if you are looking to show a little more skin, but still be covered this is a great option.

Tie-dye - We had to include a fun tie-dye swimsuit since it's our favorite print this summer!


When we were doing our round up we couldn't pick just a few because there are seriously SO many cute ones out this summer.  Here are a few others that we love!!!

leopard // ruffle (also comes in white) // floral and striped //scalloped one shoulder (also comes in pink)

This leopard print one is actually one of my personal favorites this summer.  I love how you can tie up the sides of the legs so it doesn't cut into your hips.

When I spotted this cut-out suit it reminded me of a style I used to have when I was a kid called belly-busters.  Does anyone remember those?  It was connected on the side, but your belly still showed, hence the name.  SO impressed with the quality of this one!

Friday Favorites: Summer Ready

Today we are have a little mental celebration because it's Friday! A special Friday though because this is the Friday that tells us we have one. more. week!!! One more week until Summer!! And we are sooooo Summer ready! 

I've been counting down this date since last July. That's when our crazy school system goes back to school. I might cry big ugly tears over that fact each year. 

This week I hit my wall. I am so done. Done to the point that I ordered a pizza last night just so I could have something to put in the lunch boxes. Because among all the 597 school activities going on right now the grocery store just didn't happen, and my kids devoured everything in sight by Wednesday. 

Don't judge. It was better than the frozen waffles option. 

But the official countdown is on. One. More. Week!!!

Now onto the super fun part - Friday Favorites! I haven't done a Friday Favorites in a while, and I have some super fun finds lately. Amidst all those 597 activities I mentioned I've apparently been stress shopping. So life might be chaotic, and I've resorted to late night food delivery as survival, but at least I look cute. 

It's not quite summer yet, but here it totally feels like summer. The temps have reached above 90 degrees, the humidity is doing crazy things to my hair, and the kids don't understand why it's still daylight when they have to go to bed. 

We are still in the trenches of the end of the school year, but my favorite moments lately are the peeks at summer I've gotten. We've already done tons of splashing in the pool...

We've played in the backyard after dinner time...

Water guns squirting counts as a bath right? Kidding. Sort of. 

We've eaten approximately 3,029 popsicles already...

Some are at least healthy popsicles though. So I have that going for me.

Summer moments are just my favorite. 

Since it feels like summer I've also broken out my summer staple - all the seersucker. 

The seersucker dress I wore to Carrie Beth's Derby Party a few weeks ago has been my go-to during awards season too. 

(By awards season I mean seeing my kids get their classroom superlatives. Glad to have cleared up any confusion. I didn't want all of our readers to get confused. The three of you good? Awesome.)

My favorite part about the dress (besides the fact that it has pockets, and dresses with pockets are awesome!) is the tiny details it has. I love the tiny fringe around the arm openings!

Another seersucker favorite on repeat lately is this fun loose fitting tank. I'm in love with the crochet hem.

| Shorts | Sandals |

Online it looks a little boxy, but on it fits great. 

Apparently when I stress shop, shoes just happen to pop themselves in my cart. I have two new pairs of sandals that will be worn all summer long. They are so comfy! 

First, is this rose gold sandal. 

| White tee | Jean Shorts |

Now they look like the Birkenstock pair. They feel like the Birkenstock pair. But they are about half the price. I know Carrie Beth has shared an even cheaper version that she loves (she even named them one of her favorite finds of 2017!), but I couldn't find them in my size. A neighbor told me about these and they are perfect. I went to try on the Birkenstock  counterpart and for some reason most Birkenstocks are really wide on my foot. Or maybe that is just how they feel/look to me?? Call me crazy. But I saw this pair on my neighbor who was kind enough to let me try on hers and it was a perfect fit! I wear a 6.5 and they were TTS for me. 

Between the two of us we have all three versions - texting her now that we need to do a comparison at some point for you guys!

The second pair of shoes I purchased were these hot pink sandals. 

I apologize now because you will be seeing a lot of these this summer. They sandals come in a ton of colors, but pink will get me every time. I love how they fit and feel so much I might grab another color or two. I found them slightly on sale here, here, and here.  I ordered half a size up based on the reviews and they fit perfect. 

Did you see the super cute pink tassel earrings above too? Those are also a new favorite! 

They are so fun, and so light weight. I've gotten tons of compliments on them the few times I've worn them.

They come in a ton of fun colors and currently have an automatic coupon for 5% off. 

And since you guys know we are all over the one piece swimsuit trend right now, I might have woken up early to add another one to my poolside line-up for the summer. 

You know I love me some Lilly Pulitzer, and this morning they released some of their new swimsuit designs to kick off their summer roll out. I am swooning over it all! 

I put one in my cart and will share the details once I get it, but how cute are all of these?!

The whole summer line is actually super cute, and right now they are are doing a huge gifts with purchase promotion. 

This next favorite will be a year round favorite of mine. Carrie Beth shared this little hair secret with me when I saw how voluminous her hair has been lately. 

She told me about this root boost and I gave it a whirl. Because as they say here in the South, "The bigger the hair, the closer to God."

| White Lace Top |

I love it! I sent her this pic after I did my hair the first time using it, and was so impressed. (Excuse the lack of makeup or clean bathroom. We can't have everything.) If you want a little extra volume in your life, I'd put this on your radar. A little goes a long way, and I'm super impressed with the hold and volume - especially having longer hair. 

This favorite is for all you fellow Disney lovers. I popped into Target to grab some end of the year school gifts and saw their new Disney line. 

I am swooning over how cute everything is! Luckily for Mr. Cute (and his Amex) this didn't come out before our trip because their is such super cute attire for the whole family! Carrie Beth just missed it to for her trip this past weekend. 

It's all so adorable, and I love when some of the Disney stuff is subtle. The Junk Food line is so fun, and I loved the "Living The Dream" tee. 

There are tons of items for gifts and housewares too. 

This little sleeveless hooded dress was another one of my favorites. 

And this tote with the bow slides is to die for. 

They even had make up from L'Oreal and some super cute nail polish sets. There's a little Disney magic for everyone and everything. Just the way Disney likes it. 

That wraps up my favorites for the week. Now off to a super fun weekend. We're headed back to The Battery Atlanta to see our favorite baseball team throw up another W - Go Braves! We are so excited! 

Happy weekend friends!
