My Friday’s Fancies: Beachy Chic

When it comes to looking beachy chic, it’s all about the details! I love bathing suits with ruching and ruffles. They can also help camouflage certain areas that may not be your favorite. Remember: If you’re widest at your hips, smaller bottoms are actually more flattering. Lightweight cover-ups like this one with a crochet hem are a must, and don’t forget your flip flops. Of course, you also need some cute protection from the sun!

What are you wearing to the beach this summer? Be sure to check out the rest of the Friday’s Fancies picks over at {long distance loving}! Happy Friday!

  6. I love the suit with the ruffles! I saw a similar one last year and still regret not getting it!
