On Friday JD took the day off and we finally made it back out to the beach. We haven’t been there enough this summer and it’s really bothering me that it’s so close to an end. Unfortunately, Friday was a windy mess of a beach day. We constructed a windscreen out of a tarp and some driftwood only for a huge block of clouds to roll in shortly after. We made the best of it though, and so did the seagull that tried to hide behind it with us. 

I’ve had this J. Crew beach dress hanging in my closet since college. I had picked it up from the glorious sale section in the mall by school. It was an amazing place to shop, this was back in the day when you could use your student discount on sale items and they always had a massive selection. I haven’t worn it much since then. I thought the loose shape made it difficult to wear as a regular dress and it looked awkward whenever I tried to belt it. I recently rediscovered it while sorting through my closet, and cannot figure out why I haven’t been wearing it all summer. That loose, relaxed shape is everywhere. So I threw it on for our beach day. 

Happy Monday and thank you for reading!
