SWIMSUIT TRENDS

50 IS NOT OLD | SWIMSUIT TRENDS | FASHION OVER 40 I feel like a school kid playing hookey. Joe and I have NEVER done anything this impulsive since we have been married. But, on Friday night I spent a couple hours packing all of our things back into our suitcases because we had a flight back home the next morning. I got everything done and then we decided to go grab supper in the little restaurant that is open and overlooks the ocean. 50 IS NOT OLD | SWIMSUIT TRENDS | FASHION OVER 40 While we were eating, Joe just kept saying that he didn’t want to leave.The funny thing is that every vacation we have ever taken he starts getting restless around Wednesday and is chomping at the bit to get home. This was so unusual for him and I was the one saying, “but we need to get home.” Finally, when we were finished eating, I said, “fine, let’s just stay a few more days.” He said, “are you trying to call my bluff?” Lol! I was just a little but I also thought that it would sure be nice. We walked to the front desk and told them that we wanted to stay. It wasn’t quite that easy. They had to rearrange everything and told us that they would call us in a little bit if they could accommodate us. In about 20 minutes we got the call that said they had fixed everything and we could stay and even stay in the same room that we were already in. I can’t say enough about the Ritz-Carlton and how accommodating they are. A quick call to the airport to change our flights and we were giggling like kids. It is nice to still be spontaneous. Remember, Age Is Just An Attitude, Keep Yours Young!!!

50 IS NOT OLD | SWIMSUIT TRENDS | FASHION OVER 40 While I was sitting around the pool, I got to thinking about how many requests that I had gotten about swimwear. So, I have gone shopping for you gurls and I am showing you the “must have” looks this year.

One-Shoulder Look

This look is elegant and reminds me of the Greek Goddess look. Click on any of the pictures to be taken to the website.

Off The Shoulder

I should have known that as “hot” as the off the shoulder look has been that it would make the jump to swimwear. I admit that I have purchased and off the shoulder swimsuit and it is beautiful. Very stylish and very trendy!

Crochet

The crochet look is HOT! This look is everywhere I look here at the pool. I ordered one before I came down but it didn’t really look good on me so I sent it back. However, I will still be trying more out until I find one that I like.

Tummy Control

A tummy control swimsuit will always be in style for me! I love how these suits can literally make you look like you have lost 10 pounds. I own a couple and I purchased one of the ones listed below to bring with me on this trip. It made me feel more confident down here with all of the size 2 ladies in their bikinis running around. Lol!

White

White is very trendy this year. White is a classic color and never really goes out of style but there are times when it is more popular. I love a white swimsuit but until I get a better tan they don’t look that great on me. Even though several of these swimsuits linked is showing other colors they do come in white. The website just wouldn’t let me pick a different color to show you.

Tomorrow I will be linking to cover-ups, hats, sunglasses, etc. Those are all essentials for lounging by the pool, lake, ocean, etc. I hope you liked this post. Leave a comment about the most spontaneous thing that you have ever done to be entered into a giveaway for some Plunder Jewelry. Since I am not home, I can’t tell you what it will be because I can’t see my stash. Lol!!! I’ll announce the winner on Thursday and tell you what it is that you have won!This was my office this morning. I went outside on the balcony with my cup of espresso, my granola bar, and my laptop. I sat down and worked (if you want to call it that ?) for about 30 minutes before we headed down to the pool. One of the reasons that I started a blog was so that I could work from anywhere as long as I had wi-fi. I didn’t know that I would be adding an e-commerce side job or two to my job list but I am loving both of them. They both allow me to work from anywhere, neither one makes me have inventory, make deliveries, or collect money. And, both make women look and feel better about themselves!!! I believe in these companies 100% and would never be associated with anything that I didn’t believe in. I would LOVE to have you join me and see for yourself what this opportunity can do for you. There is a 60-day MONEY BACK guarantee associated with Rodan + Fields. You have nothing to lose by simply trying! Message me today and we can get you signed up. Also, I will be gifting anyone who signs on with a business kit a Free (full size) Intensive Renewing Serum, Eye Cream, and Lip Renewing Serum for your enjoyment!

I really appreciate all of the shares and the pins of my outfits that you have been doing. PLEASE continue to do that, you won’t believe the difference it has made in my number of visitors to my blog.

    My.brother rented a house on Fripp Island, SC one summer when our boys were babies. He called that afternoon and told us to come stay. We packed up and went and had the best family vacay. Still remember that trip 25 years later as one of the best!!

  3. I bet these last couple of days are so relaxing and that you can just enjoy “each other” with no meetings, no small talk with your groups, romantic dinners just the two of you AND….I am wanting that floral dress you have on…LOL. Now that our weather has finally gotten warm, springy dresses are looking cool and comfy!

    You look like you are having a blast! So fun! I love spontaneity! I also love road trips, one long weekend we decided to drive the 700 or so miles to see the Mall of America and even stopped at the Wisconsin Dells and a few other stops along the way! Love your blog!

    You guys are always SO busy and I”m so glad you decided to stay and enjoy life a little longer! How amazing Joe is enjoying it! Has he been doing all the crazy fun excursions, zip lining, rapelling into a Cenote? I love all those off the shoulder suits but just dont think I can pull off the one piece figure hugging suit anymore. Mine are all tankini and boy shorts. Do something crazy today!!

  6. I’m so glad you got to be spontaneous and stay a few more days and enjoy yourselves!

    Two years ago I went to a wedding in Orlando and the hotel upgraded me to a 2 bdrm suite. I called my sister in Buffalo and talked her into coming. We had the best sister adventure ever and ended up going to Ft Lauderdale and Marathon! Sweet memories.

  8. Isn’t it nice to try something new. Glad you guys are having a great time!!!

  9. Good for you, girl! Happy to hear about you two having a great time. The most spontaneous thing I’ve ever done: buying all the equipment for my Pilates studio off a Craig’s list ad. I’d been praying on “what can I do on my own?” and shortly thereafter, a po.st popped up from a studio that was selling off a ton of equipment. I didn’t have a complete plan, but I knew that equipment could be the start of a new business or I could sell it again. It all worked out fabulous!

  10. My husband, our 2 kids and me flew to Las Vegas from New Jersey to visit longtime friends who moved there from the east coast a few years earlier. Their home was spacious and beautiful with a built-in pool surrounded by palm trees. We went to the Strip, Red Rock Canyon, Hoover Dam, ate ourselves sick and didn’t want to leave. We loved it so much that when we got back to New Jersey, we sold our home, shipped out our belongings, packed up the van, took the kids out of school and headed back. It took us 10 days to cross the country and we had a great adventure along the way. We’re still loving it, and every day is like a vacation!
