On the hunt for...

THE PERFECT BEACH TOWEL!!!

Because I want to make this! A couple years ago I had a lovely pink striped beach towel. But it joined the group going to the water park one fine day and became lost in lounger land. Sadly, it's never been replaced. But now the hunt is on. I need a nice big, thin pile beach towel to turn into this amazing swimsuit cover-up dress. I figure if I make my beach towel into a dress, it's unlikely anyone in my family will want to borrow it! *crossing my fingers!*

I love this get-up! Talk about stylin'. This is beachwear :)

Now that the weather is warmer we'll be spending some time by the pool. I wish today's swimwear had a bit more swagger, character and class. Four triangles of fabric just doesn't cut it. Where's the creativity? Where's the mystery? Where's the modesty?!

And I'm not just saying this because I'm not a size 2. I believe there is something to be said for maintaining some modesty in our attire, whether it be swimwear or everyday wear. We need to have more respect for ourselves and for those around us. We need to understand that we are more than a pretty face and hot body. We should treat ourselves as more than a commodity on the exchange.

We are more than meets the eye! :)
