As you can see from these photos taken yesterday, I’m at the beach. However, as the way weather seems to be going this summer, it’s been a bit dicey. So if you’re like me and need to layer up a bit for some fun in the clouds—errr sun—take a peek at some of my fave items to wear on a mild day by the water. I’d love to stay and write more, but it’s time for me to stop working and head out into the actual sun. With any luck, tomorrow’s post will be alllll about sunny day beach essentials!

PS-The only item over $100 is the sunnies and the hat and sandals are around $20 come in multiple colors. Enjoy!

After about 5 years of stalking celebrity fashion, I’ve only shown you a small fraction of my rather large closet and fashion knowledge. That being said, I’ve decided to dive in to a new “Lauren Loves” feature on BigBlondeHair.com. Every week, you can expect a new outfit post of my finds inspired by celebrities as well as my own taste. I’ll feature everything from Saint Laurent to Forever 21 and tell you why I love it all. I own it all, so please feel free to comment with questions about sizing, retailers, styling or anything else. Xo & Happy Reading
