When my sister and I get a really good deal on something, we like to tease our husbands about how much money we saved them. Sort of like when you get such a good coupon that you’d be losing money if you didn’t buy something with it. Don’t pretend you don’t know what I mean.
Mark and I recently planned our big vacation for the year — we are going to Hawaii for a week and a half! I am so excited that I quickly commenced with the fantasy-shopping of swimsuits and such, and came across something at Bluefly that I actually needed — a pretty new cover-up, at an irresistible price:
As soon as I placed my order, I started mentally accessorizing. First order of business, a stack of gold bangles:
Those are actually exactly what I had in mind, but way more than I care to spend. I am thinking more along the lines of Harwin St. prices — I think I’ll need to make a trip over there soon! And then, obviously, I will need some practical but appropriately pretty flip-flops:
I was thinking about a wide-brimmed hat, but I don’t think the kind I like would pack easily, so maybe just a scarf to tame my mane, like so:
I already have my favorite sunglasses ever. I bought them over five years ago and liked them so much that I ordered two spares from Italy. I know that sounds ridiculous, but I am already on one of the spares and love them as much as I ever did. I will buy them again one day if I have to. Sometimes you just know.
Next up, I need the perfect beach playlist for my ipod. Any suggestions?
