Coastal Chic

It's always been a dream of mine to live at the beach, but now I'm not sure I can handle the wind and the salty air all the time. Wearing a chiffon weightless dress was a great option for exploring on a super hot day, but once we got closer to the water the wind picked up and while the breeze was a pleasant break from the heat this outfit wasn't as practical anymore. Thankfully this long vest weighed down my skirt and kept me from flashing everyone trying to enjoy their day at the beach.

As for my hair, it looked really nice in the morning when we left our hotel, but I've come to learn that my unruly hair really doesn't cooperate well with salty air. I had this hat in the back of the car and once we decided to walk along the coast I threw it on to tame the mess.

On a side note, I'm obsessed with this JustFab red bucket bag. Burgundy is usually my go-to accessory color for Fall/Winter, but bright red might be a close second this year!
