Sequins and Sea Breezes: Back to Summer

Back to Summer

10/29/2014

 
I knew our fall-ish weather wouldn't last long. It's already back to being in the upper 80's during the day but I really can't complain. It gives me a chance to spend some time by the pool and who doesn't want to enjoy pool time in late October? Originally I was supposed to be going on a cruise to the Bahamas next week so I bought this gorgeous maxi to wear while I was there. 


Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I won't be going on the cruise next week (no ebola for me, thanks!) but it has been warm enough here to continue sporting summer time maxis. I love the colors and tie-dye pattern of this maxi. It's summery without being too one seasonal. The back is definitely what really sold me on it! While I love backless things I often can't wear them but this dress provides enough support and coverage that I feel comfortable wearing it. Not to mention since all the summer things are going on clearance I managed to get this dress for a steal! Who doesn't love a good deal, am I right?

  7. Gorgeous dress, but booooo for no cruise. Love cruising, but H and I missed out on a free cruise 2 years ago his company sent everyone on. It happened to be the same weekend that his sister was getting married. What infuriated us was the company did absolutely nothing for those who couldn't make it. It was a thank you to the employees which means everyone should have received a gift card or SOMETHING... *rant over* lol.

    Loving this weather, I just saw it's only going to be 66 on Saturday.. yipes!
