Retro Summer Pool Party with Vandi Fair!

Last weekend one of my very best friends and fellow blogger Lauren of Vandi Fair came for a visit to Austin! Anyone else so excited we’re thaaat much closer to it “officially” being summer? (Even though it’s already in the 90’s in Austin…eek!) – I certainly am!

I am LOVING all of the one pieces and retro swimwear looks that are trending right now, my gingham swimsuit is comfy and I actually felt super pretty/a little sexy in it (sexy is not generally a characteristic I go for..!), I’ve never really experimented with one-pieces, but I am definitely on this bandwagon and couldn’t love it more! My exact suit sold out, but this similar style by Topshop is still available and equally precious. My cotton eyelet cover up (it’s a romper – SO cute!) is classy and chic, making it the perfect plus one to my retro swimsuit. I accessorized with these incredible Karen Walker sunglasses (okay, these are utterly fabulous and I am dying for a pair, I borrowed Lauren’s!), a classic straw hat, Kendra Scott turquoise earrings, a cute little drusy ring and an arm party featuring my Stella & Dot wrap bracelet. Oh! And my shoes are Jack Rogers (these things are DURABLE and I love the pop of color they bring to an outfit – I’ve had them for over a year now and they still look like new), and my bag is Kate Spade – too adorable for summer.

With vacation season ramping up and weekends spent at the pool on the agenda, now’s the time to scoop up the swimwear or poolside accessories you’ve been eyeing! You can shop my look and Lauren’s outfits below, simply click on the links or images to shop asap. Ps. If you’re looking for more retro swimwear, check out all of the amazing pieces online at Nordstrom – so so cute (and I promise, very tough to narrow down and pick just one, ha!).
