Every year, for as long as I can remember, my family has gone to the beach. It wasn’t that we had a house (we don’t) or because we knew anyone down there. We just went because it was summer. It was time we got to spend together, and most importantly, we went because my mother loves the beach!

            As I got older, I hit that awkward stage between feeling/thinking I was too old/cool to build sandcastles and finding my school assigned summer reading too boring to finish. In this awkward stage, I lost interest in the beach, but never in the swimsuit I got to buy to go to the beach. Through the years, I collect a plethora of beach themed swimsuits all primarily from Limited Too. I got over my awkward stage as all kids eventually do, and I grew up. That slight resentment, I gain during those years has long since past. I have grown to love the beach as my mother loves it, and to adore the fashion opportunities it affords me.

Nikki Poulos has done an amazing job of creating the perfect line! Even if you aren’t going to the beach her outfits are perfect for the lake, the pool, or any other fun summer activities you have planned. So here’s to celebrating adorable beach & summer fashion for one and all! Whether you enjoy hitting the beach or the local shop, here are some lovely outfits ideas:

 Here are two swimsuits that I love! They are the perfect mix between classic cuts and contemporary chic!

I love the versatility of these dresses. They are perfect to dress up or dress down. Whether you are hitting the local boutiques or going for a bike ride.

Remember the perfect accessories can make any outfit. So try a stylish hat and sunglasses to go with you perfect beach look. Lucky for you, all are available at Molly Green!
