One Piece Swimsuit

01.25.2013 by Linda Lotich //

Sleek One Piece Swimsuit JCrew  |  Old Navy

I know. Swim suit shopping. It’s. The. Worst. But I actually think wearing a swimsuit in public is much worse. I’ve grown up as a fairly modest gal and it took a while for me to get used to bikinis. And while I do wear them now, there are several occasions when I wish I had a cute one piece to make me feel a little more relaxed being half naked in front of kids I’m babysitting or my dad. Know what I mean?

Well, a couple of weeks ago, I found this adorable suit on the JCrew website and fell in love with it. But at $118, I just couldn’t pull the trigger. Then, yesterday, while I was searching for the perfect pair of white jeans (a follow up to this post will come next week) I happened upon this suit. And it was only $10 (in store). I tried it on and settled on one size larger than normal and it’s perfect. I even tried it on for my man, who can be a bit picky about these things, and he thought it was cute too! Success.

Just thought I’d let you know. In case you’re in need. Or just want. 😉

PS: Also found this look alike from this JCrew Suit. I tried it on in two sizes, and may have gone two sizes up from normal. It’s a little tight getting it over my bodacious curves. Ha!

Dreams Vs. Reality

12.28.2012 by Linda Lotich //

In my dream, I’m sitting on a porch swing reading a book or chatting with a friend, drinking ice tea and wearing this:

Dreaming of Summer

Tank, Jeans, Necklace, Nail Polish, Watch, Sandals

In reality, it’s 30 degrees outside, I’m sitting on the couch with dry and cracking hands, nursing a husband to health (he has a cold), still in my work out clothes from this morning (that’s right folks, I haven’t showered today!) wearing this:

Work Out ClothesPants, Tank, Jacket, Shoes, Vest, Lip Balm

And let’s be real. I don’t look or smell like those models. I look more like this. But a girl can dream…

Ark & Co. Lace Shorts

07.10.2012 by Linda Lotich //

After seeing one of my best friends (you know who you are Tracy!) in lace shorts, and then seeing B wear these Ark & Co. lace shorts, I decided to do a little investigating. It’s been so hot here and while I claim not to like shorts, sometimes you have to suffer for fashion. Are these not amazing? I think I may need them!
