Ice cream Swim






I've blogged about this bikini before but I got a lot of DM's about it on IG so I decided to make a new one so it could be easy to find. 

I bought this swim at mod cloth last Fourth of July sale. I absolutely love everything about it. It's very retro but it's cute at the same time. I'm not usually comfortable in overly sexy pieces but I absolutely adore this one because of the print and Ruffles. 

It's almost true to size but I find the top runs slightly tight. I'm a true 34 b and I feel like it slightly squishes my boobs. But I do feel like a 36 b would hang off. So I would suggest going a cup size up or the equivalent of the next size up. (remember that going up doesn't mean increasing the band) 

I looked for the link but it doesn't appear to be on the site. I remember finding this swim last January when it was sold out and it appeared back for sale around spring. They have a habit of selling things that are in demand. I have however made a few links for other swim suits that are similar in print, style or have a retro vibe. :) 

FYI you don't have to be super skinny to wear a high waist bikini! I personally think any body type can rock this type of swim suit. So don't be afraid to try it.

Little denim


Hello, I know it's January. But I don't care. I live in the middle of the desert anyways. I love these little shorts from Sabo skirt. Perfect for summer, I recommend sizing up if you have a bum because I'm usually an XS, and I sizes up to a small to keep my bum in them lol. 

This top is part of the "Newport dress set" from Toby heart ginger, but I think it's the perfect crop to match anything. Size up or twice if you are busty. This is an XS, which is my usually size. As you can see I'm not busty so the small fit on the sides won't make much a difference. 


 I've also been using loving tan  to fake tan and I love it! This is the medium. It goes on easy, but I recommend using a glove when applying. Go for the dark or ultra dark if you want something more intense! I will be making a blog later on about tanning. I'm still trying to find the perfect color. I will be trying the dark next. So I'll blog about all the tanners I've tried if you are looking to try it. 

Sorry for such a short post!
