Oh gosh, aren’t Mondays after vacation the hardest? I spent the last seven days hanging seaside at my parents’ place on the shore in New Jersey. The week was filled with a little bit of everything from 4th of July partying, to reading and relaxing, to sunset boat rides. To say today is going to be a reality check is a bit of an understatement.
Since I’m daydreaming about being at the beach anyways (maybe you are too?), I’m sharing some pics of a cute, casual outfit I wore during my vaca to reminisce. I originally packed this outfit planning to wear it for any evening boat ride, but when the day came for our boating trip with friends, it was way too hot for the sleeves. Luckily it cooled down a few nights later, making it perfect for a post-dinner walk on the beach.
Stripes and scalloped detailing are two things I can’t get enough of whenever I go shopping. I really can’t stop myself when I see them! Pairing them together just seemed like a natural next step in this love affair :). While these shorts are from last season, I’ve added a whole bunch of similar options above to help you feed your scalloped short desires. Happy shopping!
xoxo, Jenna
Oh my gosh that beach looks amazing. So does your outfit. That top and those short have such a nautical feel to them, I love it.
Good luck with your Monday.

This is the perfect daytime or night beach outfit especially for the beach since it does tend to cool off a bit! Love the colors of that top and hope today flys by for you!! xo, biana –BlovedBoston
