{outfit} Simple Pleasures

Sometimes it's nice to be a kid again and not worry about anything. Yesterday I went home because two of my aunts and cousins went over to go swimming.  I wore a really simple outfit and promptly changed into my bathing suit so we could go swimming.  It was me, my 16 and 21 year old brothers, a girlfriend, my 11 year old cousin and 4 year old cousin.  We had a water fight. It was glorious.  Some random photos from the day.

P.S. If you could "heart" this video for me I would really appreciate it! The Contest ends in a week and a half and I need to get back into the top 10 to have a chance!

Dress: Kohl's, Sandals: Seychelles (DSW) $35, Sunglasses: Michael Kors (Marshalls) $20, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Watch: Michael Kors // Bathing Suit: DKNY 

Flowers!
Fabric to make a skirt like this Michael Kors one
Reading material, sunglasses and cute owl from Christine
And a front tuck into the pool! :) Like my hair?

    Sometimes act like a kid days with family are the best! I spent last weekend at the beach with my 21 year old brother and our friends, and we definitely didn't act our ages. And it was one of the best weekends!

    Love your hair! ;) And yeah, dressing like a kid who's on her way to a waterfight is pretty much my modus operandi in summer.

    P.S. Video hearted!
