A Very Marley Lilly Summer

I am BACK! I cannot thank my guest bloggers enough for stepping in and sharing some fun on my blog this week. I appreciate you all so much!

I'm going to wait until later to do a trip recap because there is just so much that happened and so many pictures to upload, look through, edit, etc. I think that will come on Sunday or Monday :)

In a nutshell I can say that my trip was amazing! Just went by way too fast!

 In the midst of gazing across the pacific ocean, one of the top things on my mind was how badly I wanted it to be summer time.

Laying on the beach, book in hand, having absolutely no care in the world.

Who's with me?

 

Thankfully, Marley Lilly has everything on my Summer 2012 Wishlist to make this daydream a reality come June.

Hats

Gotta keep your face protected in the sun!

The added monogram makes this classic baseball hat a very cute option for fun in the sun!

or

Derby Hat

I absolutely love this hat!

There are several colors to choose from AND it's only $29.99! Yes, you read that right :)

 

Croakies

Croakies are sort of like tote bags...I feel like I can't have enough of them!

I have ones in school colors, Vineyard Vines, Lilly, etc...I have yet to get a monogrammed pair so these are definitely on my list.

Marley Lilly monograms these adorable sunglasses accessories for an amazing price!

Bandeau Bathing Suit Top

STOP IT. Seriously, how adorable is this?

I remember seeing a top like this on Pinterest and fell in love.

Now to decide...pink, navy or black?

Insulated Cooler Bag

These bags come in a variety of patterns and, yes, are monogrammed on the opposite side!

My personal favorites are the sand dollar and the turtle!

This bag is not only great for keep things cool but I'm sure is easy to wipe clean after a day at the beach!

Can Koozies

Definitely a summer must-have no matter where you are.

These fall in the same category as the croakies - you can never have too many.

Did I miss your favorite ML accessory?

What's #1 on your wishlist??

Now all I need is an 80 degree day on the shore and a good book to read!

Make sure to visit Marley Lilly on Facebook and Twitter to stay up to date on everything happening!

Happy weekend to all :)

Guest Post: Whitney from The Observant Turtle

Hi everyone! I am so happy that I'm able to guest blog for Sarah while she's away.

Just a little info about me before we get started, my name is Whitney and I recently moved to Houston, TX with my hubby and fur-baby. I just started blogging a few months ago and I love it so far!

All of the warm weather here in Houston is making me think about one of the things I love (and dread) most... swimsuit season.

There are so many cute swimsuits out now and I wanted to share with y'all some of my favorites.
**I love patterned tops and plain bottom, so that's why most of these are tops.**

Target: $14.99

How adorable is this color? With the golden embellishment, this is the perfect bandeau top.



Target: $19.99

I have to admit something to you: I got a push-up bathing suit last summer and it's one of my favorite things ever! This top comes in like a million different colors, but I love this turquoise.




J. Crew: $125

Can you tell I love stripes? I'm not usually a fan of a one piece but it's too cute!



J. Crew: $50

I'm not a fan of bathing suits that you constantly have to adjust and keep from riding up. These briefs are just right for cannon balls!


J. Crew: $150

How sexy is this one piece?! It look more like the top of an evening gown than a bathing suit.



Victoria's Secret: $42 top, $32 bottom

Animals prints never go out of style. This suit comes in multiple prints/colors and is a great deal!


What are your favorite bathing suit styles?

Thanks to Sarah for letting me guest blog for her!
I had so much fun doing this post; I want to lay out now!
