Bikini Alternatives + Summer Ten-Item Capsule Wardrobe Updates

Bikinis and one-piece bathing suits... are they the only options we have to splash about in this summer? Let's explore bathing suit alternatives that still keep you looking chic. 



In today's video I discuss various bathing suit styles that are ideal for being active and out in the sun all day. 


Let's have a look first at the tankini option. Tankinis are great because they can be paired with whatever bottom style you like... traditional swimsuit bottoms, skirt bottoms, or short bottoms. There is often ruching in the tummy area and support in the bust. I love this tankini from Lands' End paired with this mini skirt option.

If you plan to be in the hot sun all day and want to protect your skin, or if you are going to be very active (think waterpark, or beach volley ball) consider a rash guard. These come in varying sleeve lengths and give your skin extra protection from the sun. I love this rash guard that is inspired by the classic Breton stripe. I am wearing it with beach shorts. 

Other great resources for chic bathing suit coverups and accessories is Mer Sea & Co resort


I will be retiring the Rachel Pally Marion dress as the long-sleeves are not ideal for the hot summer weather. That will be packed away and brought out next spring. To replace it is this gorgeous Penelope dress by SKYE (Jennifer20 for 20% off). It's gauzy, and white and I have been living in it this summer. I am wearing the dress with The Spanish Sandal Co. tan nubuck sandals. JEN10 for 10% off 



The Penelope dress is wrinkle-resistant, washes well, as does all of my SKYE dresses, and has a beautiful button detail that cinches in at the waist. Here is a preview of some of SKYE's beautiful 18K gold and pearl jewelry collection for summer:



Estelle long layered clover and pearl necklace Jennifer20 for 20% off This necklace is long and can be layered for a fuller look. It has SKYE signature pearls and elegant crystal clovers that remind me of 
Van Cleef & Arpels. 


The Lena pearl choker necklace  Jennifer20 for 20% off is delicate and charming in a vintage way. 


The Therese 18K gold freshwater pearl bracelet is a delicate delight. I love the dainty design of this bracelet! Jennifer20 for 20% off.

Comment of the Week
On Monday's etiquette video, Mia writes, "I once had a great conversation with a disabled veteran that I’d just met at a business networking event about SASQUATCH. 😂 The man had been invited to an area where they film Finding Sasquatch, and we laughed as he shared “Squatch” stories. To this day I still don’t know if he thinks Sasquatch is real, but we text and share pictures each time we see something related. It’s so fun. Even my husband and daughter send him selfies with anything Sasquatch related."

Dear Mia, this is the best part about making a new friend and getting to know someone. It's those sasquatch moments where you can think of the other person and smile :) Thanks for sharing!
