GIVEAWAY

Again, don't forget to enter our Cinco Powell Giveaway!! We will announce the winner on Monday!

Luxe Fashion: Panama Hat

Continuing on our resort wear obsession...another staple is the panama hat.  While I typically wear mine poolside with a bathing suit, look how cute the panama hat looks paired with casual wear.  Love it with a simple pair of jeans and a t-shirt!

Luxe Lifestyle: What's In Your Beach Bag? Christin's Bag

As if we haven't gotten the vacation bug bad enough, yesterdays incredible giveaway really has us eager for resort wear even more!

I'll take a tropical vacation any day, but lately I've been excited to just lounge by our new pool!

Here's what I'll be wearing... I'm loving this graphic, colorful Zinke bikini with a simple gauzy white coverup (especially love the low back).  Jimmy Choo wedges...who doesn't love to gain a little height, especially in your bathing suit?  (Maybe not for the beach, but definitely by the pool!)  Classic sunglasses are a must have and gold jewelry always looks great against sunkissed skin.  A chic headwrap is the best way to keep your hair down and off your face.  This suncreen is perfect for "smart, serious, sunbathing"...helps you bronze and protects your skin and Evian Spray will  keep you cool and your skin hydrated!

Luxe Lifestyle: What's in your beach bag?

It happens every year, the holidays quickly come and go, and all of a sudden we are ready for resort wear! And let's be realistic, we live in Palm Beach, we need to accept that this year more than ever, WE HAVE NO WINTER.

So, with the accpetance that we had two days to get our wear of boots and sweaters, we embrace that resort collections are now hitting the shelves. And to celebrate, we are kicking off a new series!

This will be a fun series where we feature our resort picks, along with other beach favorites from guest bloggers!

Lauren's Bag

For my beach look, it's all about a basic black bikini with a bold print cover-up, some turquoise statement jewelry and sleek gold sandals.  A good sunhat is a must, as well as a classic pair of shades.  My lips always burn so I have to have a good sunscreen, and a great beach waves hairspray if my hair gets wet!

Luxe Fashion: Indah

For resort clothing straight from the source, Indah does it right. Created and produced on the island of Bali, Indonesia, the Indah line embodies resort chic with its silky, kimono dresses and open back caftans.  Using luxurious silk and chiffon fabrics, and subtle tie-dye prints, these are perfect pieces that can easily go from day to night. 

Romper

The Melati Kimono Cover-Up was my first Indah purchase, and I'm still wearing it! This piece and many others double as great maternity wear!

They also carry a line of lingerie very cheeky swim suits as displayed by the gorgeous Kate Upton on this year's Sports Illustrated cover.

And why would I include photos of myself almost 8 months pregnant alongside Kate Upton you might ask? Let's call it motivation.
