When life hands you a trip to the beach, you should bring your flamingo?  Am I right??  Well I did just last on our trip to the beach a few weeks ago and we had a blast.  Honestly I felt like a little kid again playing on our float in the ocean!  

When shopping for formal dress options, I mainly look for versatile.  I think it is important to find pieces that I can wear over and over, to multiple functions for a couple of reasons: 1. I need to save room in my closet and 2. I need to save money.  I mean common sense right?  But I can tell you that I am guilty of finding that trendy option that will be perfect for the wedding I have the second weekend of April, so the long sleeves wont be that bad because it will still be cool….Yeah but what happens when the wedding in the end of July rolls around?  I have to buy a new one.  So with that being said, when it comes to my dressier options, I try to make them work year round (or at least multiple times).
