::lavender {sorta} suprise::

Remember last week when I gloated a little? Well, it arrived on my doorstep yesterday, and it made my day. Now, a tiny bikini and a trip to Fiji is all I need.

And...if you could book the tickets too, that'd be great.

::no way::

So, you know how some blogs host giveaways? Well...occasionally I try one if the item truly fits my style. As a fan of Free People, and loving every page of their catalogs, I started following model Jenny Lopez's blog LopezJennyLopez. I love her breezy bohemian {life}style-- she travels to the most amazing locations and has an envy-worthy closet {you can see one of her effortlessly chic styles here}. Jenny was hosting a giveaway for a beautiful OndadeMar pareo. If I had it my way, I'd live in bikinis {I may have a slight obsession}, and cute cover-ups are a must. So, I took a chance and found out I won. This pretty much makes us friends now, right?

Now, time to plan a trip to the beach!

::irbw // neutrals + accessories::

Today, I'd rather be wearing a neutral pairing with a pretty vintage scarf (like Beatrice Valenzuela) or a floral belt + wide-brimmed hat (like model Jenny Lopez). I'd also rather be in a pretty green field or shopping in a tiny coastal village. Is that too much to ask?
