Sequins and Sea Breezes: Beach Weather

Beach Weather

12/08/2015


Happy Tuesday! It feels weird writing a post like this. It's early December and everyone else is all bundled up, wearing boots and scarves and here I am strolling along the beach. Gotta love Florida winters... or something like that. On one hand I wish we were getting the same cool, brisk air everyone else was getting and on the other I love knowing it's still warm enough outside for me to wear shorts. 
I wore this outfit to meet up with some out of town friends last week on a warm, sunny, breezy day at the beach. They're from up north so of course they thought I was completely crazy rocking a sweater at the beach but I'm definitely a Florida girl now and anything below 80 can be considered chilly. Crazy right?  This lightweight sweater was perfect for the breezy day and since I knew I wasn't going to get in the water instead of wearing my bathing suit underneath I rocked a lace bralette. I paired the sweater with some high wasited jean shorts and minimal jewelry. It was the perfect walking around the beach and pier outfit for a Florida fall day!

    That sweater is so cute! I love how it looks so warm and cozy but that it's light enough to not be super uncomfortable when the temperature rises.

    So cute, love the shade of the sweater and that it's slightly see-through - so great for the beach!! I also love long sleeves paired with shorts. Except around here I wear that style when the temps break 60 ... 80!? I would be in full heat wave mode. Ha!!!
