Current Favorites // Swimsuit Cover Ups

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11 // 12 // 13 // 14

As we approach summer and pool days come into view, I wanted to round up a few of my favorite coverups. Coverups are different than regular dresses because they’re often times made of lighter material that dries faster {crucial if you’re going from beach to anywhere else}. My favorites are #3, #7, #8 and #13. I’ve also recently also gotten into sarongs {maybe it’s because they fit my ever expanding bump} but they’re often times just so pretty too. How gorgeous is #1 and #10? I absolutely love the colors. Many of these are under $100 and would be so great for any beach vacation or pool day you have in your future. Let me know your favs in the comments and feel free to shop my fav picks above or below!

Also, shop other favorites below that didn’t make it into the collage, but that I also love!

Matouk Butterfield Bedding

With baby coming in just a few short weeks, I knew I wanted to get our guest bedroom in order. My parents are planning on staying with us when he’s born and although my dad will probably only visit for a few days, my mom is going to stay for atleast two weeks! My parents are the most low maintenance guests, but I wanted to do something special for their arrival. Plus, the sheets on the bed were some cheapies we had bought when we first moved in and it was time to update them. My mom has always loved Matouk linens, so they were the first company I thought of when looking for new sheets. Since I never sleep in the guest room, I wanted to choose a set I knew she would love. As soon as I saw the scalloped edges on this set, I knew I had to have them. They come in several colors, but blue has always been a favorite color of mine, and it matched my consignment store find-of-a-lifetime headboard perfectly. They’re also that percale cotton that she and I both love so much. Percale sheets are the kind that feel cold and crisp when you climb into bed, and Matouk makes some of the best on the market. I can’t wait for them to come visit when baby comes, and now I’ll feel especially good knowing they’ll be as comfortable as possible. Someone should be getting restful sleep {even if it’s not going to be me! :P}

When my husband and I got married, the first thing we invested in was beautiful, high quality linens and I have never appreciated anything more! It makes crawling into bed every night feel like the ultimate luxury – and we both sleep soooo much better because of it. I bought all my Matouk bedding at Bloomingdale’s where they have an incredible selection of all the best in luxury bedding. Their selection of Matouk is next level, but if you want to check out all the other options you can do so here! What do y’all think of investment bedding? Do you think it is worth the initial upfront cost? Let me know in the comments!
