It’s mid-May here in Vermont: which means spring is done and summer has sprung! It’s beautiful this time of year! My family and I are trading in our snowshoes for our pool. Without further ado, here are my sunshine must-haves for the spring and summer seasons.
Swimsuit(s) from Target:
This is my newest swimsuit of the season!
Full disclosure: I am a one-piece girl. I am always active and a one-piece keeps me in (if you know what I mean). I love anything that is both comfortable and stylish. Every year, Target has the best buys and a great selection. But they tend to sell out fast! So hurry on over to Target.com and get a-shopping!
Skincare:
Beauty Booster Cream SPF 30 from Trish McEvoy
After having my baby, my skin decided to shrivel up and die. Ah, hormones. This duo moisturizer/SPF is pricey but has become 100% worth it to me. It lasts a lot longer than you think (my last tube was about 5ish months- BONUS) and is so wonderful at protecting my face when I am out playing soccer or running with my little girl.
Haircare:
Bumble and Bumble Surf Infusion Spray
Bumble and Bumble Surf Styling Leave-In
I wish I was better at doing my hair. But I am not. So in the summer, when I want my laziness and ineptitude to look intentional- I turn to Bumble and Bumble for some sea surf help. You don’t need much and you will look FABULOUS.
Shoes:
Walking, chasing, shopping, and lounging tend to require multiple shoes. OR DOES IT? Nope. Who knew my favorite (and all purpose) shoe would come from CROCS? Not me. But trust me, just go get yourself a pair now. GO. NOW!
Beach/Pool Things:
Specifically, beach and pool towels!
Personally, I think the price of beach and pool things is a bit much. Especially beach towels. Luckily, Target has some fantastic prices on their beach towels. Good bye, dingy towel. HELLO, you gorgeous, vibrant, and stylish new towel. Target has other great accessories for your days at the beach and/or lounging poolside for fair prices- check ‘em out!
Gardening:
If you know me, you know I am not a gardener. BUT I inherited a pretty big yard to maintain when we purchased our home. Last year, I learned some basics. This year, I am kicking a&& and this whole deadheading, watering, pruning, planting thing. But you should still check back in with me in, like, a month on that. My local ACE Hardware store has proven to be most helpful for all of my needs. I also love Lowes and got myself a new pair of gardening gloves in their sale bin there. Because apparently I now needed gardening gloves. When I graduate to fancier ones, I will let you know.
And last… but DEFINITELY, not least… wine.
Wine:
Vino Verde from Trader Joes (pic only- head to your local TJ’s for a bottle… or 6)
It’s $4.99. It’s deliciously summer appropriate. It’s a crowd pleaser. It goes down smoothly. Enough. Said.
My faves are not sponsored. I am just sharing my joy with y’all.
