My friend Erin and I had fun taking photos on Lake Michigan. Somehow you miraculously can’t tell that these were shot on a 95 degree day. It was H-O-T. Perfect for the beach, I’d say!
I love mixing stripes with polka dots. It’s unexpected and playful.
It’s a little embarrassing to admit, but pretty much my entire outfit is from J.Crew. You can get the look with these ideas…

striped cotton drawstring dress, coral Nina Ricci bikini, madewell polka dot tote, headscarf, peace bracelet
Do you live near a beach? I don’t know what I’d do without one! I long for the ocean, but Lake Michigan isn’t so bad. ; )

So so cute! We don’t live near any major bodies of water, which is a huge bummer! Maybe one day!
